Nicolas (amanico) shares his enduring admiration for the Jaeger-LeCoultre Amvox II Platinum, a timepiece he has cherished since 2007. His post highlights the watch's unique pivoting case chronograph pusher concept and its distinctive design, attributing its aesthetic to Magali Metrailler and its Polaris-inspired case shapes. This article delves into why this nearly 15-year-old reference continues to captivate collectors with its innovative spirit and timeless appeal.

The concept ( pivoting case used as a chrono pusher ), the design ( thanks Magali Metrailler ), the overall look, the platinum case whose shapes have been borrowed to the Polaris ( yes, yes... ), all these details are the ingredients of a great watch, which is unique, till now. 

Who can think that it is almost 15 years old! It is an eternal youth, in my opinion. 



A killer duo.



A sweet candy.








Merci, Magali, for the dedication on my warranty papers!



Fifty shades of Grey, ala JLC...



Yes, that Amvox II is one of my favorite watch from my collection... Since March 2007!

Best,

Nicolas
