A vintage inspired aviation look

Classic AVI draws on the appearance of older pilot's chronographs, with bold numbers and a dial designed to be read clearly. It has a different character from the highly detailed Navitimer. The case shape, bezel and subdial arrangement can vary, so references within the collection may look more or less traditional.

This is a smaller selection, making the full model name particularly important. Check the chronograph arrangement, movement, case measurements and strap before deciding. A leather strap can reinforce the vintage style, while a different finish may look more contemporary. If you are choosing between Classic AVI and Super AVI, think about whether you want a more straightforward chronograph or additional travel related functions on a particular reference.

See the Super AVI collection for a related but distinct aviation style.
