**Heuer Autavia** is a wristwatch by [[Heuer]].
===== The classic Heuer Autavia =====
Already in [[1933]] a stopwatch by Heuer (today [[TAG Heuer]]) was bearing the name "Autavia". [[1962]] an identically wrist [[chronograph]] was presented, inside which a [[Valjoux]] [[manual winding]] movement was ticking. These models can also be recognized by the V-shaped, symmetrical arrangement of the three [[totaliser]]s ([[Tricompax]]).
From [[1969]] the watch was equipped with the newly developed [[automatic]] chronograph caliber [[Chronomatic]] with [[microrotor]]. Its typical construction mark is the left sided crown, located at 9 h.
In [[2019]], TAG Heuer introduced a new Autavia collection, elevating the nameplate to its own model.
