Gavox Legacy Navy Review
It's always very exciting when a brand surprises you. Whether through the quality of a piece that belies its price or the thoughtfulness of a design, it's reassuring when a brand seems to surpass what you expect. Gavox's newest releases, the Legacy Navy line, are an example of a brand doing something quite unexpected that made me adjust what I think about them.The Gavox watches we reviewed last January were pretty straight forward quartz pilot's watches.

Sure, you could buy model Boeing airplanes and maybe a t-shirt or baseball cap, but nothing like the Bremont Boeing watches.

Seems almost like a gasket or seal that would fit well in a crown. Not sure if I'm being paranoid but a second opinion wouldn't go amiss! Apologies for the poor photo but it's the best I could do.
