Same for me and I tried a local Watches of Switzerland. They only offered to order straps TAG already lists online and back ordered ones online showed the same for the AD.

Congrats again on the strap, looks amazing. Will have to order one soon too.

If you can get us the part number, I can have the 5th Avenue boutique look into it. They'd be happy to mail it to you.

See if they can get hands on or order #BC0964 Blue Autavia Leather Band.

Finally got the new Bas and Lokes straps in Granite Ostrich and Vintage Brown. https://www.basandlokes.com/nato-straps/

(Excuse the image quality/editing. I swear they looked better on my phone!)
Hello @ArthroBro ,
good to see that you took the plunge & bought this new TH Flyback.
was wondering after these few weeks of use -- do you still like the watch?
And, any issues re. watch getting magnetized near portable devices like cellphones, iPad, laptop, etc?
thanks.

The Autavia Flyback is a handsome looking piece! I recently bought the black dial released this year. I want to change out the strap, but it seems removing the strap bar is a bit difficult. Does anyone have tips on this?

Try a few YouTube searches for "watch strap change", it's the kind of thing that seems iffy at first but the more you do it the more you get the hang of it. If in doubt, take it to your nearby watch store and ask them to show you.

That's weird. I thought that was steel... I've seen the DLC one and as I recall it definitely looked black.

Which is why I wondered if these lighten with age. Not too cool if you want a black watch, only to find it looks almost like steel a few years later.

Ran across this used Black DLC model. I was surprised by how the black coating looks lighter, more steel than black. I wonder if these lighten with age? Or do they just look this color in person?

Definitely looks lighter than the ones I've seen.

Cool bonus that it comes with the Las Vegas Monaco box 😎
