TAG Heuer Autavia Calibre 5 Steel & Blue Dial 42mm Automatic Men's Watch

The TAG Heuer Autavia has been reinvented as a wristwatch – a timepiece which embraces its identity as a motorsports and aviation watch combined. Named Autavia - after the first ever dashboard instrument used for both automobiles and aeroplanes, which was created by Charles-Edouard Heuer in 1933. Autavia has a long history in design and technology and is considered as the 1st of the Heuer “Big Three”. This 42MM model is carefully crafted from fine-brushed and polished stainless steel. The uncluttered blue smoked dial graduates in colour from the dial’s edge, it’s adorned by rhodium-plated Arabic numerals and three hands, coated with a white Super-LumiNova® for high visibility in the dark. A white minute tracker surrounds the outer edge and a date aperture maintains functionality at the 6 o'clock position. The iconic TAG Heuer branding takes centre stage on the dial and it’s protected from the elements by a sapphire crystal glass; coated with an anti-reflective treatment on both sides. The over-sized screw-in crown and blue ceramic, bidirectional 60-minute bezel completes the cockpit-inspired aesthetics. The fine-brushed case back is engraved with the Autavia special decoration and stamp of authenticity. It comes with a matching three-link brushed steel bracelet which connects to your wrist with a folding clasp, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit when wearing. For two looks in one, this timepiece is accompanied by an on-trend navy blue NATO strap - the collection’s interchangeable strap system lets you switch with a simple push button. At the heart of this handsome wristwatch is the TAG Heuer Calibre 5 Chronometer-certified automatic movement, it’s extremely precise and has an impressive 38-hour power reserve. Presented in a TAG Heuer branded watch box, it comes with a 2-year international warranty and it’s complete with our Hugh Rice stamp and instructions and guarantee card. This Swiss-made automatic is water resistant up to 100 M, which is ideal for everyday wear. The Autavia combines both vintage and modern elements housed in one bold design, resulting in one of the most significant timepieces in the history of TAG Heuer.
