Re: Early Autavia Dial Markings, Close-up
In Response To: Early Autavia Dial Markings ()

The watch has now arrived and I was able to view it with a loupe. The print material and color of the initials appear identical to that of the logo and Autavia script, however, I would say that the width of the initials is a few microns wider. The periods after each letter are not perfectly round, but rather are shaped a bit like a comma. That's about all I know today that I didn't know yesterday, except to say that I love the watch, whatever the story is behind the letters.
