Hi, everyone !!!
I am Pedro, from Spain.
I am not sure if this is the correct place to this question, sorry if it is not !!!

I am a happy owner of an Autavia Chrono and I wonder if you know some bracelets options for it.

The original it’s very expensive (to much in my opinion) and to find another in 21 mm with a similar fit in the shape of the case could be complicated.

Any ideas ???

Thanks in advance.

Hi Pedro!

Do you mean just metallic bracelets, or also leather straps?

Metallic bracelets, sorry.
TAG Heuer made three different leather straps for these Heritage Autavia Heuer 02, but just this BA0687 bracelet in the classic “beads of rice” style. So this is the only OEM bracelet for this watch.

Because of the ‘60-‘70s style of this watch, I think the “beads of rice” design is the best option for it. A more recent bracelet design would look out of date with this watch.

Are you looking for some bracelet not made by TAG Heuer? If so, you would miss this beautiful buckle

So I would go for the OEM bracelet. This beautiful watch deserves it 😉 👍

Did you ask the price for this BA0687 bracelet in a TAG Heuer boutique or Authorized Dealer? If so, how much are they asking for it?

I agree with you. This OEM bracelet is the best choice, but it cost 700 €.
I am looking for something more affordable to do the job.

In that case, if you don't want to spend €700 on the OEM bracelet (I wouldn't spend it either, because luckily I like this watch much better on leather strap 😉) and to avoid a bracelet from another manufacturer, you have three options of OEM leather straps, at a much more affordable price (around €200 including the original pin buckle FC1085 with Heuer shield):


Camel brown FC8226


Black leather with white stitching (from the Autavia Viceroy and Harrods editions) FC8246


Black leather (from the Autavia Calibre 11/Siffert edition) FC8235

That is combination for the watch in this moment. I am wearing the Autavia with black leather strap and Heuer deployment, and I do love the watch, but to have the ss bracelet to give it another look is a good idea.

My watch.
