Overview
The American Aviator Watch was originally made for the USAF, so pilots would have a time piece that was precision made and accurate for them to be able to count on. This could be imperative for the many missions that were carried out in the second world war. It is an impressive looking analogue watch. It has glow in the dark features and clearly read hour, minute and second hand components. The wristband is made of a well constructed nylon that is comfortable to wear. It has a face that it is a little larger than some of the other watches constructed during this time.
The Claim
The promoters claim that this watch was constructed with its precision and accuracy because of the heavy responsibility that was placed upon it during the missions carried out during the 2nd world war. Missions had to be carried out to the split second, and pilots needed a time piece that would allow them to do this. It also had to be durable and be able to withstand the rigors of war. This current timepiece is expected to meet these standards.
The Hype
With the history behind this watch it adds a special signific
The Cost
This American Aviator Watch is being offered for $39.95 and this includes the shipping. Included in your order you will also get a World War II booklet, a collector’s case and a certificate of authenticity. This entire package really makes an impressive yet affordable gift.
The Commitment
No doubt you always have some man on your gift giving list, and they are not always easy to buy for. The great feature about this watch is that it can be worn with pride, or simply put on display. It really is appropriate for the young man, or the older senior. It would most like hold a special meaning for any war time veterans or those serving in the military now.
Evaluation
The American Aviator Watch is really not glitzy but it has a clean, strong and durable look to it. It certainly would compliment any attire that it would be worn with. It is well made and is reported as being scratch and water resistant. This is important for the men who are on the go.
We’re prepared to give this watch a Thumbs Up review. It is a modern day version of the original and classic aviator’s watch, and is being offered at a very reasonable price. There
are several other versions of Aviator’s watches on the market and over all they seem to be getting decent reviews. This particular watch has the individual numbers laser etched onto it which adds to its impressive look.Our Recommendation
You really may want to consider ordering a couple of these and putting them away until you need a men’s gift for a special occasion. Watches are not always an easy item to pick out as a gift, but this one just about fits any man’s lifestyle. Another time piece that we found to be of interest to many was the Timex Ameritus, which has a slightly dressier look.

I got this watch as a gift . I wish I got the money instead . I would have got myself golf balls they would have lasted longer and I s--k at golf . Rick with all the money you have You should buy back all these shit watches stuff in one of though cannons you bought on pawn stars and shoot them at the range . Maybe then they would a hit !!!!
Watch lost many hours quickly when it arrived. I took it to a battery testing place and they said it was a wonder it was even ticking. The battery was so low. I replaced the battery and all is good now. Too bad they originally sent such a dead battery.
Where can I purchase a new green nylon strap for my American Aviator watch?
Thank You
I am adding this website to my favorites bar. The comments are great. I watch Pawn Stars and I think Rick is great but I'm not buying this watch. The made in China part isn't really a problem as long as the guts (the movement) is Japanese or Swiss or USA although the Fossil line has movements made in what was Hong Kong and they are very reliable. If you have opened hundreds of watches like I have you can tell the difference in quality. Minor note, no watch can be labeled waterproof anymore. Even if it is a real diver's watch it will still just say water resistant but will have a depth or AT (atmospheres) rating, the higher the AT or depth rating the more resistant. Rick should donate any money he gets to a Vet group. He can't possibly need the money, heck Chumlee drives a Lambo .
My daughhter bought this watch fpor me two Christmas ago and it worked for ! MONTH. I called the company a month later and they asked me to ship it back and they would replace it.........that was 1 1/2 yrs ago and NO REPLACEMENT yet......The ads/company/promotion are scams in my opinion.......I liked the style of thew watch and would wear pone if they would just live up to their ads.
I just wanted to chime in here.
I’m an Aviation enthusiast I love WWII Planes
My mom bought me this watch for a Christmas gift $50+ Of her hard earned money went on it. I was very happy with it I took pictures of it and wore and wore it with pride. My Grandfather served in WWII he fought on Omaha beach. I have a very big love for WWII history. I love the American flag. My mom saw it and thought I would love it. I did and I still do. God bless her for getting me anything at all much less this beautiful watch. I’ve had the watch about 2 years now or more and I have to say I don’t give a damn if it was made in China it’s a beautiful watch well packaged with WWII aviation decor tin.
The number of the product is clearly marked on the beautiful shining tin. I had to reset it last month and over a few weeks I began to notice that it lost time again by more than 3 hours. I am looking to get the battery replaced I can’t get the back off that’s actually how I found this post. In defense of something that was given as a gift by my mom to me I had to comment here and let people know it’s not as bad as everyone is making it out to be. Mine was bought off HSN some cheap products are sold on HSN but HSN usually has the more quality of the crap items so I was fortunate to not have immediate issues like some.
Point it’s a beautiful watch beautiful enough for people to seek out watch repair places to fix it or change the battery. It’s not the highest quality and you shouldn’t expect it to last forever. But it does make a great gift that will be cherished for the thought regardless.
I’m going to try to replace my battery if I have to again soon then I’ll put it up on a shelf and get another but I will tell you it’s been a great watch a great fitting one and beautiful one I take care of and will keep.
Love it or hate it made in America or not it’s a gift watch and a collectors item at the cost of this you can’t expect to perform like a brand name watch. I’ll add that many of the products made in America these past few years have fallen in standards meanwhile some of the decent things I own weren’t made here. Best of luck to you if you plan on getting one try buying from a reputable vendor HSN might not have them anymore but we’ve never been disappointed with anything bought from there knock on wood.
I was made in China, served in the US army for over 10 years. I am an American citizen, joined long after becoming naturalized. I want to thank you for telling me I'm not American...I still fought for your right to say that.
To whom it may concern:
I really liked the style of the Aviator watch and bought four extra for gifts.
I of course got the Aviator Lemon.
After two new batteries and a trip to the watch maker he said if it stops again there's nothing more he can do. Well, guess wha,t it continues to stop, this is frustrating and irritating.
Folks, I really want to wear a stylish Aviator that works is there any chance of a replacement?
Hoping this gets to the right person.
Thanks,

Save your money unless you are going to save for posterity. DOES NOT RUN HALF THE TIME. LOOSES TIME 5 TO 10 MIN. IN 12 HRS. BIGGEST PIECE OF JUNK I HAVE EVER PURCHASED. OF COURSE IT DOES COME FROM CHINA.
I love the looks and feel of the watch, unfortunately it is garbage. I had 2 of them and both did not work after a couple weeks. I returned the second one because I did not last 2 days before it stopped. The problem is a cheap very cheap movement.
Thumbs Down!!!
