TAG Heuer Autavia Automatic Chronometer Watch WBE5114.FC8266

Model Code: WBE5114.FC8266

Inspired by TAG Heuer’s intimate relationship with its roots, the formal re-introduction of the Heuer Autavia to the brand’s catalogue was welcomed with great praise. One of Heuer’s pillar collections of the ’60s and ’70s, the Autavia has become synonymous with all things automobiles and aviation. While subject to dramatic shifts in design over the decade, the Autavia has remaned fiercely utilitarian with its large stainless steel case and legible dial.

Heritage appears as the driving theme being the new breed of inspiring Autavias. This WBE5114.FC8266 reference features a 42mm stainless steel case, an oversized crown, sword-shaped hands and a 60-minute bidirectional ceramic bezel. Its smoked brown dial offers a vintage flair echoing its predecessors of the 1960s. Powered by a Calibre 5 automatic movement, this chronometer is the full package for a collector seeking a versatile, affordable everyday watch.

Continuing the rich legacy of Heuer’s beloved Autavia, this particular reference excels at evolving a classic design. This particular model has undergone a full service prior to listing and comes alongside a generic TAG Heuer box.
