Why AVI-8?

At AVI-8 we pride ourselves in shedding light on important events and people throughout aviation history. Through a collection of exclusive collaborations, we've been fortunate enough to bring attention to the remarkable feats of aviators whilst giving back to communities whose stories we draw inspiration from.

AVI-8 x RBL

AVI-8 was incredibly proud to announce the partnership with the Royal British Legion for their centenary year in May 2021. Each timepiece sold helped raise funds for this extraordinary charity and support the crucial work they do for those who serve and have served in the British Armed Forces and their families.

AVI-8 x Jet Art Aviation

To commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Daily Mail Transatlantic Air Race in 1969 won by Tom Lecky-Thompson in Harrier XV741, AVI-8 worked closely with renowned aviation restoration company Jet Art Aviation to produce a series of limited edition timepieces.

AVI-8 x Help for Heroes

AVI-8 was honoured to announce the release of a line of limited edition timepieces in partnership with British charity Help for Heroes. Funds raised were used to provide lifetime support to those wounded in the service of their country. Every course and activity offered from them aims to empower veterans to look beyond illness and injury, regain their purpose, reach their potential and have a positive impact on society.

A Night Hawk's Legacy

Squadron Leader Karel Kuttelwascher, renowned as "The Czech night hawk," etched his name among WWII's elite Czechoslovak aces. Assigned to No. 1 Squadron for perilous night intruder missions in 1942, Kuttelwascher's black Hurricane, adorned with a yellow scythe and red banner, became the feared "Night Reaper." With 18 confirmed air victories, his exceptional skills earned accolades, including the Distinguished Flying Cross, making him an icon in aviation history.

Nice Timepiece

Very good quality overall, however the strap was a bit on the flimsy-side. The dial is difficult to read at times, needing a slight tilt of the watch face to see the hands (but it fits with the stealthy look!). Luminescence doesn't last more than 2 or 3 hours, making it hard to see at night unless it is pitch black. Chronograph elapsed timing has a very small dial, making it not that useful for viewing. Solid feel on the wrist. This is my second watch from AI-8 and I will be on the lookout for new releases that catch my eye.

Nigh Reaper Hawker

not sure if anyone from designers team was testing those watches. Why? Because if so - they MUST find out minute and hour hands almost invisible, when just little bit dark. Boys, those are "pilot watches" !!!! so very good idea with Kut has been completelly destroyed by this one detail. ,,,and what could be that small detail, which could save that an made it astonishing? For instance light gray frame of hands. Very disapointed.

Simple, yet simply eye-catching look

As soon as I saw this watch, I couldn’t wait to purchase it when it became available. Even though it looks like a very simple looking watch, it is yet still very captivating to look at. Beautifully executed look and design. This is my third watch from AVI-8 and I am overall quite impressed with the quality, looks, and designs of their watches.

Great design with a few issues

First of all, it is undeniable that the watch looks incredible, with a really cool design. However, it has some small details that I don't like. The calendar window is incredibly small and makes it difficult to see. The case of the watch has an absolutely beautiful matte black steel finish, but the buttons and crown have a very clashing glossy black finish. And what I like the least is that the phosphorescent material of the watch is very weak. In the dark it has a very weak glow and lasts only a few minutes, making the watch completely useless at night (which seems like a paradox to me considering it honors a pilot who earned his fame for his night operations). Despite these issues, the watch looks amazing (during the day) and I love it!

Nice design

Received many compliments especially from other pilots. Due to dark hands and face, lume would make it easier to read in the dark. Terry Z.
