Watch specialist, AVI-8, drop a range of well-crafted timepieces inspired by WWII and Modern Military Aviation. The watch draws design cues from the iconic P-51 Mustang plane, built by North American Aviation.

Named after the iconic plane, the watch’s 43 mm case emphasises a rounded crown guard with features that reference the engine exhaust of the aircraft. A lightly curved scratch-resistant sapphire lens covers the bezel, producing a collective aerodynamic silhouette in frame and design. The watch also features a reliable and robust Seiko NH35 automatic movement, finally, each timepiece is uniquely numbered as part of a limited edition of 1490 pieces.

The genuine leather strap embraces the wrist with a custom design and presents detailed stitching to maintain the overall aesthetic and harmony of the watch. Expanding on versatility, each watch arrives with supplementary nylon and canvas, Velcro-release strap.

Starting from $380 USD (£290.00 GBP), The P-51 Mustang Automatic Bottisham Edition is now available from the AVI-8 website.
