One Rotating Bezel Away from Getting It Just Right
In Response To: Autavia - opinions please !! ()


I really like the new Autavias -- white dial with blue trim or black dial with orange trim, both look great to me. In my view, if they had included a rotating bezel, the Autavia would have been almost perfect in capturing the look, spirit and usefulness of the original Autavia. Still, it comes very close to getting it "right".

I leave it to others to comment on the pedigree / design of the movement.
