What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph

Owners widely report AVI-8 watches offer a compelling design and are decently well made for the price. The AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph features a 42mm stainless steel case with curved lugs, a bi-compax meca-quartz movement, and a mineral crystal, with design elements inspired by Supermarine Spitfires. One owner notes that AVI-8 watches are "something different" and "decently well made," though not of "insane quality." On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph for its unique design and value proposition.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
