What's my wrist-wear choice for today?
My Flavor Of The Day
Wednesday has me wearing the Aviator, F-Series Pilot. Given the decision by Aviator to place a polished, mesh bracelet on this F-Series, I suppose this piece falls into the category of a dress pilot.
Excellent dial clarity on this Aviator, as the stark white index markers easily stand-out, against the matte, Black dial. It's tempting to wonder what type of personality transformation that this pilot would take, with the inclusion of a leather, riveted, vintage pilot strap. But the mesh bracelet definitely adds a touch of class to this timepiece. And as an added bonus, the mesh bracelet is ultra-comfortable as well.
The Aviator, F-Series Pilot, is another prime example of a quality, grab-n-go, quartz powered timepiece, that has all of the great looks and wrist presence that any watch collector could want, but at a price that won't break the bank; this timepiece was acquired, BNIB for sub $50!
Sticking with the polished, liquid metal look as my accessory choice to pair with the F-Series, in the form of a minimalist, hematite stone bracelet, designed by Aurum Brothers.
Aviator is one of the brands that R2A Watches distributes along with Vostok Europe. Aviator has some nice models, but as a brand, I definitely give the nod to Vostok Europe.
Aviators have been catching my eye more often lately. How do they wear versus a Vostok-Europe?
