    Which of the three generations of the Heuer Skipper do you prefer?

    1. Carrera based Skipper (photo by Noodia)

    2. Gen 1 Autavia based Skipper

    3. 2nd Gen Autavia Skipper

    Of course, there are more than three models, but which type do you prefer? For me, it's number 2..

    I might be just a little biased :D

    But really the robust case of the 11063V is just perfect, IMO

    I love 2nd gen Autavias, however, in the case of the Skipper, I agree, number 2 is the best.

    I love the Gen 1, every now and then LouS posts some pics of his but the dial colour co-ordinated NATO Noodia has really makes it pop

    Gen 2 Autavia version for me - I do love @ucsfgabe's example, which I've ogled on Instagram many times! If we're going for a full order, I'd put the Gen 1 next, and then the Carrera version. They're all lovely, but I like the greater contrast of the black autavia dials against the Skipper sub-dial.

    For me it will be #2, by a nose over the first. :thumbsup:

    2nd Gen Autavia Skipper!
    Although the Carrera Based Skipper is kinda cool!
