Thrilled to See the 2017 Autavia Powered by the CH80
In Response To: 2017 Autavia ()

I was thrilled when Heuer showed the CH80 movement (Basel, 2014, I believe), disappointed when the movement was "shelved", and I am very happy that this movement will power the 2017 Autavia.

Technically, the movement sounds great, and it gives us the 3-6-9 registers that we want to see.

We can worry about the size and date window, as progress continues, but I see this as fantastic news!!
