Specialist note

The Autavia Diver 100 is considered one of the most distinctive watches in the history of the Autavia line of chronographs. Only a very small number of examples are known to the market. Combining the functionality and aesthetics of the automatic Autavias with some of the notable characteristics of diving watches such as the Rolex Submariner, including the Mercedes hour hand, The Autavia Diver 100 can certainly be described as a unique and important watch in the history of Heuer chronographs.
