·I still can't get over how poorly unmatched the seconds subdial looks on the silver.

·Judging by what he said yesterday I think we can rule this out...

·Hodinkee has a new "hands on" article. https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/the-return-of-the-tag-heuer-autavia-chronograph
I still think these look nice. But I wish they were smaller, slimmer and less pricey.

·I didn't notice, what did he say?
Pretty much TAG suck, the new models suck and I won't be buying any more. In a nutshell.

·Yes, maybe in the metal it won't be as bad as the pictures. I quick photo-edit illustrates how much cleaner the silver would look without the seconds contrasting subdial. Alternately, I would not be complaining, if they had used the "cross hairs" design as they do on the H02 Monacos.

·Don't you think it looks like there is too much empty space at the bottom?
This was simply meant to show how mismatched the 3rd subdial looks on the silver. Maybe having it in black (as the other subdials) would have been fine.

·If I was doing a redesign, I would have done the edits I posted in prior posts.

Got it.....I also like that version much better.

·Pretty much TAG suck, the new models suck and I won't be buying any more. In a nutshell.
I have been very patient (because passionate) with Tag Heuer, after buying 59 new Tag Heuer watches since 2002.
But apart from the Manufacture Calibre (1887, Heuer 01 or Heuer 02), I had and have ONLY issues. Because of the bullshit Sellita (in the Monaco and Aquaracer).
Moreover, the new management of Tag Heuer France (the new CEO) behaved badly with me 1 year ago by treating me like a terrorist (and not like a loyal customer who helped them).
Today, I prefer to put my money with Omega/Tudor/Breitling and Rolex.
To come back to the subject, I think these new Autavia are superb 😉

Hi Virgile
I'm also sorry to hear this. It's not great when someone who is loyal to a brand is treated poorly.
Looking from the outside it seems to be that the new younger management style seems to favour more Influencer type personalities.
Also preferring to spend money on lavish Celebrity filled events rather than invest in their loyal customers.
I'm also similar to you that I've recently been spending on Omega,Tudor and Breitling.
I'm waiting and hoping Tag Heuer release a killer piece that draws me back in 2022.

·Sorry to hear this. Did you have problems with the new Monaco you just bought again?! (I believe it's your 4th time buying the CAW211P)
Yes, my last Monaco CAW211P and my last Aquaracer 😉

Why is it that all watch "journalists" in the world have agreed that Sellitas are "tried and tested work horse movements" when they seem to be the exact opposite of this 🤬
