For me, org-mode's power overwhelms what auctex brings to the show.
Not having to worry about any \begins etc not only keeps the text
cleaner, it helps me in my continuing battle against RSI!

However, I do agree that reftex is particularly useful and I do miss
some aspects of it.

The preview aspects will of course depend on the topic of the thesis!

What??  You sometimes don't have access to your org-files?  I could
not function in this way any more!  ;-)
