TAG HEUER AUTAVIA JO SIFFERT LIMITED EDITION

The brand new TAG Heuer Jo Siffert Autavia
Label Heuer Autavia Jo Siffert Collectors’ Edition
Developed in cooperation with Calibre 11, one of the very most popular online forums specialized in TAG and Heuer pieces, the Autavia Jo Siffert Collectors’ Edition is modeled after an antique Autavia model made famous by Formula 1 racing legend Jo Siffert, who throughout the past due 1960s and 1970s wore both a Heuer logo design on his racing suit and a Heuer Autavia 1163T Chronograph on his wrist. That reference of the watch, produced before “TAG” was put into the ongoing company name and logo, was recognizable because of its black subdials, blue central hands, and subtle suggestions of blue throughout the dial, most by the end of the indices notably. The watch provides the Heuer 02 automated chronograph found in modern Autavia watches and provides vintage flairs like the use of the historical Heuer logo design on the dial and the dark calfskin strap with Heuer tang buckle. Modern adjustments are the crown being relocated to the right part between your chrono pushers, and, of course, the three-subdial set up (the classic watch experienced only two). Normally, it’s an extremely accurate imitation of the watch that Siffert used during his race career. To find out more about the watch and its own history, just click here.
