Finally, a watch that develops a better story than you do. The AVI-8 FlyBoy Eagle Squadron Automatic Bronze 85th Limited Edition ($450) is a tribute to the daring American pilots who jumped into WWII before it was fashionable. Forged in bronze, this 39mm automatic timepiece will naturally mature with a unique patina, so your wrist will look historically significant even if you just wore it to the grocery store. Under UV light, the black dial reveals a hidden inscription: “First from the eyries / For liberty / Let us to the battle,” adding a layer of classified drama. It’s powered by a reliable Japanese movement and comes with two leather straps. Limited to just 175 pieces per variant, it’s the perfect accessory to convince people you, too, have a legacy that takes flight.
