AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Hitchcock, Automatic Pilot Watch with AR Sapphire Crystal #AV-

Inspired by an American hero, the Hitchcock Automatic pays tribute to the Lafayette Escadrille member and national polo champion who directly influenced the development of the P-51 Mustang during WWII.

The Hitchcock Automatic is built from our iconic 43mm x 14mm P-51 Mustang inspired case, featuring a crown guard echoing the engine exhaust of the aircraft. With a beautifully contoured shape, it has been designed to look and feel comfortable. Drawn from both the cockpit and body of the P-51 Mustang, the Hitchcock’s multilayered dial blends modern watchmaking sophistication with vintage aviation elements to create a clear and legible dial with an AR sapphire crystal.

Powering the Hitchcock is the ever-reliable and accurate 24-jewel NH35 self-winding movement. In a tribute to Hitchcock’s heroics outside the cockpit, the case back features the words “Ten Goal Tommy,” referencing his 10-goal handicap in polo. It comes on a leather strap with a sort of a tuck and roll look. Lug width is 22mm. Watch weight is 100 grams. Water resistance is 5 ATM or 50 meters. Note: AVI-8 names this model the Hitchcock Greentree.
