I tried on one of the Prototype JH Autavia the other night and having worn the 2017 Autavia for a month, know it's comfortable on the wrist, although this was the first time trying one with the BOR bracelet, which adds some serious weight to it....in a positive way.
The MH bezel shrinks the bezel down in appearance and really helps the overall look, so much in fact I'm considering buying one myself. It will be interesting to see if guys with the standard Autavia will try to replace the bezel/insert.
The dial looks great and the overall Panda dial manages to shrink it down. Still the 15.6 thickness of the watch is a little chunkier than I'd like and is hampering my decision between it, new Gulf Monaco, Omega Seamaster reedition (part of the Trilogy to be released soon) or a new Submariner. All very different with different features and charm.
I'll try and get some wrist shots this week of the JH if I pop into the TH office at some point.
