AVI-8 Spitfire Smith AutomaticvsTimefactors Speedbird PRS-51

Owners praise the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic for its dial depth created by elevated numerals, a deeply signed buckle, and detailed case sides. The watch is also noted for being practically mark-free with no dings found, and comes with a barely worn brown leather AVI-8 OEM strap. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic highly for its detailed finishing and pristine condition.

Owners widely praise the Timefactors Speedbird PRS-51 for its flieger design, AR sapphire crystal, and value at £200. The 36mm case is noted to wear closer to 37mm due to the dial size, and while one owner describes the 5-link bracelet as well-built but stiff, another praises its drape and articulation. Accuracy figures vary among owners, with one reporting +7 seconds per day and another around +10 seconds per day, though one owner states theirs keeps impeccable time. The Miyota 9015 movement is noted by one owner to exhibit noticeable rotor wobble. Overall, owners rate the Timefactors Speedbird PRS-51 highly for its pilot watch aesthetics and value.
