History of Tag Heuer Heritage Watches

The TAG Heuer Heritage consists of a wide range of options that are designed to acquire the classic look and are made to meet the standards which people expect from one of the world’s most famous watch brands. These TAG Heuer watches are built to suit everyone's versatile taste and are made available in various cases, dials, straps, and materials.

One of the popular models by Heuer Heritage is its Autavia, which was launched in 1962. It is a homage that was dedicated to Jack Heuer, who is the grandson of TAG Heuer’s founder, on his 85th anniversary. This masterpiece enjoys great popularity being a vintage collection and is notable amongst the devotees of Heuer.

The name ‘Autavia’ has been derived by combining two words - “AUT” is copied from the word ‘Automobile’, while “AVIA” is borrowed from ‘Aviation’. Hence, the name aptly fits the creation of the watch, as it has taken its inspiration from the elements of both the fields – racing as well as aviation.

The Autavia is an evolution from one of the stopwatches by Heuer, and in its first release, it featured a Valijoux manual winding movement along with a unique tri-compact design – a V-shaped arrangement of the three subdials.

A couple of years later, this classic Autavia was given the feature of an automatic movement – Chronomatic. This movement was developed with the help of three other watch manufacturers. The crown of this timepiece was equipped on the left side so as to establish its chronomatic movement. Presently, these are one of the notable vintage models, as they represent the golden age of Heuer – one of the reasons why they are highly sought-after.
