The name is a contraction of AUTomobile and AVIAtion — it began in 1933 as a dashboard timer for cars and aircraft before becoming a wristwatch in 1962. Jo Siffert and Jochen Rindt both wore Autavias, and the reference numbers are how collectors track its many bezel and dial permutations.

How do I check a TAG Heuer 2446 with Watch Safe?
Look up the watch's serial number in the Watch Safe registry to see whether a record exists or a theft flag is attached. A registry search identifies records for a specific serial; it does not authenticate the watch. Authentication is performed in person by an independent expert authenticator, and Watch Safe records and publishes the result.
