Review on Gavox Legacy Navy “Logical Stars” (Ref 358.5)

I’ve always been a 3 hander watch person. Due to the cost of servicing watches with complication, i rarely venture out of the day / date function. Until recently i acquired a solar chrono panda. I discovered the beauty of watches with complications like sub dials and all.



Shortly after, i chance upon Gavox. A Belgian brand created by Michael Happe. Founded in 2011, they began making watches for the Air Force in 2014. You can find our more about the brand https://gavox.com/about/"http://i.imgur.com/LOEKxOLm.jpg" alt="" loading="lazy">



Having said so much about the dial, the polished see thru case back is equally well designed. Custom rotor on a Miyota 8219, even the font is carefully engraved to replicate the naval feel.







The position of its crown at a rather awkward 2 o’clock position may seems out of place at first. After handing the watch for a while, I realised that it is actually a joy to use it ergonomically. Much better that a crown at 4 o’clock.



The overall weight distribution on leather strap is perfect. Some might find the slightly longer lugs a problem but it sits nicely on my 6.75” flat wrist with no overhang. Fits comfortably under the cuff of my shirt but also pairs well with my dress down days. The watch works well with most straps. It is a watch for all occasion, it has been a few conversation starter even if non watch lovers.







The package came thru within 10 days of clearing payment, packed in a good quality travel roll, well protected inside a paper box. The package includes an alligator strap, a calf leather strap, papers and a sticker. I would personally like to have a travel case instead of watch roll. As travel case offers more protection and separated storage spaces for tools, straps and sometime another watch.

I’m confident with Gavox’s design and quality that I’m already considering the Blue Avidiver as my next Gavox.

Good choice Cirdec. You're a really master hunter for microbrands.
