Mmmmm, none jump out at me especially but if I was offered one it would be the green(second left) as it’s different to the rest I have although if the bronze had been stronger? I might have gone that way.

I would like to conduct a little survey...not all of us are fans of these Autavia.

But let's say pick one among these five ? Which one will you choose ? (You can pick more than one)

I personally will choose the (in particular order)

1. Second from the left
2. Second from the right
3. First on the left
First on the right for me!

Having now seen them the hands down winner for me is the bronze/green.

I keep having very mixed reactions to the new Autavia. Sometimes, I like the look of them and other times I think they look all 'Mickey Mouse'. Right now, I'm feeling the latter so would not pick any of them!

They look better than the pictures suggest.

Its a good article and nicely balanced, particularly around celebrating the addition of the collection.

I personally dislike the dogs dinner of styles, it really feels like someone with no knowledge of watches set out to design a vintage watch for people with no knowledge of watches.

Maybe that's why I like it, hahahahaha.

I wasn't wowed. Hopefully the chronos will be better. I hear 5 variants are being considered for those too.

Hi,

Me too, waiting for the Chrono Flyback 😉

Here my pictures of a nice models, tried as the Tag Heuer factory ladt month :

I like them- far nicer than the proto we saw last year and importantly, very different to the Carrera. I'd much rather have this aviation themed Autavia in the permanent collection than stick rigidly to the Autavia's motorsport heritage and therefore lose the watch from the collection because it clashes with the Carrera's positioning

I agree with you.

I will try not to buy this Isograph (ref WBE5110.EB0173) but rather wait for the one that was announced in Basel 2019 and then hidden now (the Chrono) 😉

So judging from the hidden chrono autavia isograph layout of dial, it's heuer02 inside with isograph right ?

I am curious about the price though.

Nicer than I originally thought - especially like the caseback. I wonder how these look on smaller wrists.

If I remember it right it's a flyback chrono. So it might rather be the calibre 36 (el primero). RSP for those was around CHF 7500-8500 some years ago. So I would not expect the Autavia Chronos to sell under CHF 8'000.

Not that he is in charge now, but JCB has previously said that they would not be using the Calibre 36 (El Primero) again.

You would think that the Heuer 02 was designed with the ability to add a flyback function.
