TAG Heuer Autavia Flyback Chronometer, 42 mm, Stainless Steel and ceramic, CBE511A.FC8279

Introducing the TAG Heuer Autavia Flyback Chronometer, Ref# CBE511A.FC8279, is a masterstroke of aviation-inspired design fused with cutting-edge chronograph technology. Its 42mm brushed and polished stainless steel case, with a bold 15.68mm profile, brings commanding presence while staying true to the rugged spirit of the Autavia line. The black sunray dial, reminiscent of classic cockpit instruments, ensures instant legibility with polished hands filled with luminous material and applied Arabic numerals coated in Super-LumiNova®. A finely printed seconds and fractions track along the flange keeps timing sharp and precise. The dial is balanced with a small seconds sub-dial and date window at 6 o’clock, while two black chronograph sub-dials anchor the layout: a 12-hour counter at 9 o’clock and a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock. At center, a bold chronograph seconds hand ties the design together. Driving it all is the column wheel chronograph mechanism, with the distinctive red metallic column wheel visible through the transparent sapphire case back. Enhanced with a flyback function, the chronograph resets instantly, ready for back-to-back timing like a pilot’s tool should. The COSC-certified Calibre HEUER 02, delivering 28,800 vph, 33 jewels, and an impressive 80-hour power reserve (around 65 hours when the chronograph is active), powers the watch. Its black rotor with red text adds a modern edge, visible through the exhibition back. Framing the dial, the robust black ceramic bi-directional bezel carries a 60-minute scale, offering durability and utility in equal measure. Completing the design, the watch is secured with a black alligator leather strap, featuring a quick-release system and a fine-brushed and polished steel pin buckle for comfort and versatility. With 100m water resistance and a screw-down crown, the Autavia Flyback Chronometer is built to perform under pressure—whether in the cockpit, behind the wheel, or navigating everyday challenges with precision and confidence.
