here are links to some of the vintage Autavias that likely served as the inspirations for the re-issues. - the white-dialed Autavia was styled after what is referred to as the "Siffert" model of the Autavia. One of these is shown below.
- the black-dialed Autavia bears the closest resemblance to this older Autavia, Reference 11630 MH.
Both these came on the bracelets, or the leather straps. They date from the mid- to late-1970's.
Thanks for your message.

: produced about 40 years ago. I'd like to
: know the number/type of the vintage model. I
: saw one in a vintage watch store some time
: ago and it looked similar to the CY2111
: BA0775.
: It had a metal arm band, not leather. Does
: anyone know further details about that watch
: I'm looking for (year of production, etc.)?
: Thanks a lot
