While paying tribute to those who have served and sacrificed on our behalf, the RBL Tri-Service Limited Edition operates as a high-performance and durable military-ready timepiece, incorporating all the necessary build and engineering for use in any field of combat.
Powered by a precise TMI VK series Meca-quartz chronograph movement, the choice of movement is of particular interest given the UK’s Ministry of Defence issue of a watch from Seiko to its military forces in the 1980s to update previous watch selections from British or Swiss watch companies, making it the first quartz chronograph movement delivered as a bonafide piece of military equipment.


A stainless steel case measuring 42mm in diameter is equipped with tidy piston-like chronograph pushers, while a hardened mineral lens delivers clear-cut visibility to the dial and hands. Topping the crown is the Royal British Legion’s red two-petal poppy enclosed in epoxy.
Not forgetting this timepiece's inspiration, the night view of the watch sees the dial face come alive with a luminous field of poppies, adding an important and visually compelling reminder of those who have sacrificed and served.

A pristine timepiece to support UK veterans and a great watch brand alike. AVI-8 never fails to deliver a refined timepiece for a great price.

Beautiful poppy ascent watch
It puts a smile on my face when wearing it. You see I purchased this beautiful timepiece to honour my Grandfather, whom was a WW1 veteran. The poppy represents our brave soldiers who fought for freedom. It’s also my 4th AVI-8 watch!. I love this brand

Very nice watch
Very nice looking and unique watch. High quality look and feel. And the strap is made of very solid leather. Only a shipment from Hong Kong somewhat detracts from the feeling of supporting the Royal British Legion

AVI-8
Experience was excellent. Great looking watch. I have small wrists and the band was a little long but functional. Have had a number of compliments from my pilot friends.
