IDF Autavia (Ref 113.603) -- Thin Font / Fat Font

No doubt about it -- the font on the Phillips Autavia (top photo) is different from the font on the four that I posted last night (three of which are shown below).

Looking forward to seeing Shaun's, with the thin font, which seems to have the best pedigree / provenance of any of the IDF Autavias.

So much fun to learn new things!!
