With a black bezel.....😎

It's growing on me 😉
Certainly better than the blue and bronze renders I've seen in this thread.

I've been a little surprised by the mixed reaction to this release... particularly the focus on the bezel.

Certainly I can understand the 'limited edition fatigue' but I think overall it looks great. But then I love a blue dial/orange second hand combo!

Can anyone recall a 70s autavia with this colour scheme.

No, this color scheme is closest to the later executions of 1153 / earlier executions of 1553

There was a similar design used on the Autavia-based Skipper (photo from OTD)

The blue and orange combo looks perfect. Love that part.

Without wishing to reopen 'bezelgate' (I prefer the black personally) it does appear a blue bezel option could have been possible given the upcoming releases.. assuming this is genuine

Close up of the dial detailing

The light was very flat today will get some more when I can do the dial colouring more justice.

Well done, one more nice piece to add to the collection.
The many permutations of this Autavia sure are popular, even amongst non Heuer fans.
TH sure got this one right ...
