I wonder why they went with such a different script size on the two dials? Seems to be be the same on all Chronomatic Autavias, small on S dials, larger on Ns.

Charcoal Autavias seem to be the odd ones out - charcoal Carreras and blue Monacos have the same smaller text as the silver/white Autavia.

No ideas or theories on this one, just pondering...
