JLC Video with clues about the new "Himalayan watch"...

 
 By: respo : January 12th, 2010-06:21
Jaeger-LeCoultre has posed a new video here: http://www.jaeger-lecoultre.com/eu/fr The video offers some all too brief glimpses of the new watch. See if you can tell anything from the video. It looks cool from what little I can see. I can't wait anymore! ... 

Digital chronograph...

Looks like a digital-display chronograph of some sort, which could be activated a la AMVOX2 (and the general look of it makes me think it could actually be the AMVOX4 as numbers are in line with the 3 previous iterations)

Interesting thoughts

It looked like there was a digital aperture to me, too, as well as a chrono counter. I am guessing this is not in the AMVOX line, but for no good reason other than I thinl JLC will wait a year or two before releasing a new AMVOX after all of the recent ac...

Looks like a cool and big watch to me. At 12 o'clock seems to be a digital minute counter, probably of the chrono. The subdial at 9 o'clock is labelled 'chrono hour' and counts to 24, which is unusual too. At about 4 o'clock one can see a segment which is...

I suppose this is another watch, even if the Amvox IV will share some identical components. Answers in few days now. Hard to wait... Patrickh

hi gyes, don't worry it's not a fourth generation of AMVOX. AFAIK, a chronometer, compressor dressed, without oil and a part of specifications of the LAB. you have to wait a couple of days... cheers. O NB: best wishes. ;-))

100% with you on the GMT and "Selector"...

writings on the dial! Further it seems to me that it is in Compressor housing with three crowns. Interesting!! Must say that JLC has done a good job of just hinting in the video. But as I'm currently hooked on a very slow hotel connection, I got some good... 

Looking forward to it :::))

that is a sexy bit of advertising

as it just shows fleeting and partial glimpses of the new watch, in the tradition of the best strip tease artists (well, I'm told). I love the bit where the climbers are traversing the dial "face". Imagine if every watch was annouced in this way!
