Unfortunately, it is a bit of a theme with TAG Heuer where they use the same colour for the dial, bezel and strap (although not the strap in the above examples) and you just end up with little in the way of design balance.
I like the orange details on the blue dial, the orange stitching on the brown strap.... And the kind of brown has to go with the kind of blue, for me that is a total mismatch. The Autavia looks good though.
They are a bit 'Marmitey' aren't they. One day I'm mad keen on one and the next, I'm not. Nice photograph though of one of the two models I do like along with the Gulf model.
I agree, I'm the same. Total infatuation one minute, complete ambivalence the next... and as David says, they are very chunky.
