My "Interesting Autavia" *PIC*
In Response To: An Interesting Autavia ()

Let us discuss my Tachy Autavia 3646.

I bought it because it gives a very consistent expression despite the strange dial.

Items to discuss include but are not limited to:

- The red chrono hand may be wrong.

- The hands have the visually correct length -- reaching the digits, indices, and the minute chapter respectively -- but may be wrong for this variant as stated otherwise in this thread.

- The turning bezel matches very well, but the fanzy "3" seems to be unusual for this period. IMHO, the 13 to 24 hour functionality does make sense.

Cheers,

Mick
