AVI-8 Spitfire Lock ChronographvsCasio EQS-960PB

Owners widely appreciate the AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph's compelling design, drawing inspiration from Supermarine Spitfires with details like a prominent crown and rivets, and find the build quality excellent for the price. The watch features a 42mm stainless steel case with curved lugs for wearability, a bi-compax layout with subdials for elapsed time and a 24-hour scale, and black lume that glows green. Some owners note that AVI-8 watches offer something different and are decently well-made, though not of insane quality, and one reviewer found the included leather strap and bracelet to be the weakest aspects. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the AVI-8 Spitfire Lock Chronograph highly for its striking design and good value at its price point.

The Casio EQS-960PB is noted for its design, featuring a steep case taper, sharp bezel corners, and links that some find reminiscent of the PRX, while maintaining a distinctly Casio dial. One owner dislikes the suspension case design, preferring the standard lugs of other models. Overall, owners find the Casio EQS-960PB's design to be a point of discussion, with some appreciating its unique aesthetic and others preferring alternative lug designs.
