AVI-8 Sea Gray
Excellent watch - stunning looks and excellent price. Great service from AVI-8. What's not to love !!



A Sea ***** up my sleeve
I'd seen the Hunter-inspired chronographs and especially liked the air camo version, but saw this one on special offer. For a day or two I kept coming back to it, and the more I looked at it, the more I found myself preferring it to the others anyway, regardless of price. In the sea grey, black and gunmetal it had more of a 'Sea *****' look to it, I thought. The actual watch arrived and looks as good as the photos on the website. It's a bold watch, by any standard, so the understated colour scheme helps it look functional rather than flash. It's a quarz chronograph, so it keeps time of course, and I love how visible and readable it is for me when I've got my distance spex on. The chronograph function gives me a schoolboy pleasure too: the bottom dial is the second hand, and the big gauge at top left on the face sweeps across to record the minutes. Good in itself, but after stopping the return button allows the hands to sweep back, the bottom dial spinning counterclockwise a full revolution for every minute elapsed while the minute gauge hand slowly traverses back in sync. The combination reminds me of the unwinding cockpit dials and gauges when in a steep dive! I bought the watch as a present to myself for getting through one of life's tough patches (fairly) intact, and I'm very happy I did.
