Overview

AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Chronograph Air Blue Quartz Watch in gray.

An aerodynamic design and legible gray dial mark this tribute to Colonel Don Blakeslee, a World War II fighter pilot. Its name recalls the P-51 Mustang, which North American Aviation proposed in 1940 instead of building the Curtiss P-40s ordered by the British.

The 43 mm gunmetal PVD case houses a VK68-TMI quartz movement beneath anti-reflective mineral crystal. Water resistance is rated to 5 atm. The blue leather strap completes the watch. The durable construction carries the watch’s aviation character beyond the dial.

Questions & Answers

Is it water resistant?

Its 5 atm rating covers splashes, rain, and an occasional shower; it is not intended for swimming.

What aircraft is this collection named after?

The North American P-51 Mustang, which the manufacturer proposed in 1940 instead of building the Curtiss P-40s British purchasing agents had come to order.

What changed the Mustang?

Replacing its Allison engine with the two-stage Rolls-Royce Merlin, which lifted its performance above 15000 feet without costing it range.

How does it work?

It uses a quartz movement. Have the battery replaced by a watch service specialist when it runs down.

Can the strap be changed?

Yes. The leather strap can be replaced with another of the same lug width.

Can it be read in the dark?

The hands and indexes carry Superluminova, which charges with ambient light and glows in the dark.

What warranty is included?

This official AVI-8 watch comes with the manufacturer’s 3-year warranty.
