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 Smith Automatic

Owners praise the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic for its dial depth created by elevated numerals, a deeply signed buckle, and detailed case sides. The watch is also noted for being practically mark-free with no dings found, and comes with a barely worn brown leather AVI-8 OEM strap. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic highly for its detailed finishing and pristine condition.

Lorier Olympia SII

Owners widely praise the Lorier Olympia SII for its excellent value and vintage aesthetic, highlighting the robust Seiko NE88 movement and crisp chronograph pushers. The 39mm case is noted for wearing well, with its layered design effectively managing the 13.8mm thickness. Some owners prefer the hesalite crystal for its aesthetic, while others would like a sapphire option. The bracelet is described as functional but can be a hair nipper. Overall, owners rate the Lorier Olympia SII highly for its execution of a vintage chronograph at an accessible price point.
