The Heritage

The TAG Heuer Autavia CBE2113.BA0687 is powered by the automatic Heuer 02 caliber with column-wheel chronograph function. The movement displays hours, minutes, small seconds and date in addition to the chronograph functions. The model revives the historic Autavia denomination used by the brand for chronographs originally intended for the automotive and aeronautical sectors.

FAQ

What is the lug width of the TAG Heuer Autavia CBE2113.BA0687?

The lug width is 20mm, measured interior-to-interior across the case lugs. This specification is specific to the CBE2113.BA0687 and ensures accurate strap selection. Measurement should be performed with a calliper or rigid ruler, inserting the tool between the inner shoulders of the lugs without forcing.

Which strap suits the TAG Heuer Autavia CBE2113.BA0687 best?

For this 42mm chronograph, we recommend alligator with vegetable tanning in brown or black tones for elegance and temporal resilience; shell cordovan for those seeking natural patina; vegetable-tanned calf for lightness. For sport-oriented deployments, a Cordura NATO or structured matte rubber maintains coherence with the pilot-tool character, reinforcing the professional instrument ethos.

How do I change the strap on my TAG Heuer Autavia CBE2113.BA0687?

The strap installs into the lugs via spring bars. Position the watch face-down, use a small flat tool to compress the upper spring bar toward the centre, withdrawing the old strap's end. Repeat for the opposite lug. Insert the new strap by aligning the holes, verify the spring bars engage fully with the lugs, then release the tool.

Can I use an aftermarket strap on this TAG Heuer?

Yes, provided the strap features an exact 20mm lug width. Quality aftermarket straps retain the original TAG Heuer spring bars and offer complete aesthetic freedom: you may choose materials, colours, and finishes unavailable in official catalogues. Always verify that the strap has been tested for 20mm compatibility.

How long does a leather strap last on a 42mm TAG Heuer Autavia?

A quality leather strap—alligator, shell cordovan, or vegetable-tanned calf—withstands 3–5 years of daily wear, depending on climate, frequency of use, and maintenance. Alligator and shell cordovan age excellently, developing patina. Rubber and synthetic materials last 4–7 years. Rotating multiple straps extends the longevity of each, permitting leather to dry thoroughly between wears.
