TAG Heuer Autavia Models and References
Every modern TAG Heuer Autavia shares the same 42 mm architecture — a bidirectional rotating bezel, sapphire crystal, date at 6 o’clock and 100 m water resistance — and each is a COSC-certified chronometer. What separates them is the movement and the case material. There are four families to know.
Autavia GMT — Calibre 7
The traveller’s Autavia. The WBE511A.BA0650 pairs a blue sunray dial with a 24-hour ceramic bezel and a steel bracelet, driven by the COSC-certified Calibre 7 GMT with a 50-hour power reserve. Its independent second time zone makes this the most practical Autavia for anyone who crosses time zones regularly.
Autavia Flyback Chronometer — Calibre Heuer 02
The closest descendant of the 1960s racing chronograph, and the most mechanically serious watch in the collection. The in-house Calibre Heuer 02 is a column-wheel automatic chronograph with an 80-hour power reserve and a flyback complication that resets and restarts the timer in a single press — the function originally developed for pilots and rally timing. We stock it in brushed steel (CBE511A.FC8279) and black DLC-coated steel (CBE511C.FC8280), both on black alligator.
Autavia Calibre 5 — Steel
The three-hand automatic, and the easiest entry point to the collection. The steel 42 mm case carries a black ceramic bezel insert and a COSC-certified Calibre 5. Two dials are available — smoked black (WBE5114) and blue (WBE5116) — each offered on brown calfskin or a steel bracelet.
Autavia Bronze
The most characterful of the four. A fine-brushed bronze case with a matching bronze-and-ceramic bezel, which develops its own patina with wear so no two examples age alike. Offered with a smokey khaki green dial (WBE5190.FC8268) or a brown dial (WBE5191.FC8276), both on leather.
How to read an Autavia reference number
The suffix tells you the strap and the prefix tells you the movement. WBE denotes a three-hand or GMT automatic and CBE a Heuer 02 chronograph; .FC indicates a leather strap and .EB a steel bracelet. So a WBE5116.EB0173 is a blue-dial automatic on a bracelet, while a WBE5116.FC8266 is the same watch on brown calfskin.
