The AVI-8 Flyboy automatic watch in black with a matching black mesh band is dopeness personified.  When you don this work of art, it is almost like an exotically classy (but slightly rugged) reptile is coiling affectionately around your wrist.  The watch is encased in stainless steel with automatic (Japan 3 Hands with Date) movement.  The weight of the watch feels exactly right and there is no bulky or clunky sensation whatsoever.  It lies effortlessly upon the flat of your wrist like an invited old friend.

The AVI-8 brand states proudly that it has a goal to ‘honor both the aircraft and the untold story of the airmen who have dedicated themselves both in and out of the cockpit to bring these incredible machines to life.’  Looking at the simplicity of design of this particular timepiece as well as the care that was taken to ensure that it is a useful tool, it becomes very vividly clear how and why the aircraft inspired its design.  Lets not forget about the awesome luminous powers of this watch when the environment gets dark.  In dark places, this already reptilian specimen becomes even more stylishly venomous with green illuminated markers that make it a lot more intoxicating in its sleekness.
