Autavia Rindt to be re-issued after poll attracts 50,000 votes

TAG Heuer is to re-issue its 1966 Autavia Rindt watch after holding an online poll among watch enthusiasts to see which model they’d most like to see make a comeback.   

The ‘Autavia Cup’ campaign, which was reported by WatchPro HERE, gave fans a unique chance to have their say in which heritage Autavia model they wanted to return in 2017.

The competition attracted more than 50,000 votes, as customers, collectors, enthusiasts and boutique clients registered their choice.

Voters initially had 16 historic Autavia watches to choose from, all of which represent the first generation of Autavias produced by the company in the 1960s.

From that, the eight favourites went through to the next round before the line-up was eventually whittled down to an outright winner.

The chosen model will be re-isuued and presented at Baselworld 2017, TAG revealed.
