Independent watch imprint AVI-8 presents its latest project alongside a nonprofit organization known as Tuskegee Airmen Inc. with the new AV-4103 Flyboy Tuskegee Airmen Meca-Quartz Limited Edition. The new launch ensures that the watch capsule will be dedicated to supporting the former's work to promote aviation careers to youths that reside in disadvantaged communities.
The collection is a limited edition with a total of 1.195 pieces made and it features four references. Each watch is produced in limited amounts of 310 or even less. Every design is detailed in a color palette that nods to one of the four original squadrons of "the all-African American 332nd Fighter Group, which are the 99th, 100th, 301st, and 302nd."
