Jon (GWIS) shares a fascinating look inside the Jaeger-LeCoultre Amvox 2, presenting deconstructed movement photos from Alexander James Horological Services. His post offers a rare glimpse into the caliber's unexpected decoration, sparking a conversation about this unique timepiece's appeal and intricate design. This visual exploration provides valuable context for collectors and enthusiasts interested in the Amvox 2's horological engineering.

I came across these photos on the Facebook page of Alexander James Horological Services, who are an independent watch servicing company here in the UK. I have never used their services and I have no affiliation with them, I just found their pictures interesting because I don’t think I have seen shots of the Amvox 2 movement before. To my untrained eye, the movement looks more nicely decorated than I was expecting. 

It’s a shame they did not have any pictures of the deconstructed Amvox 2 case, given how unusual the case construction is.

I really like the grey/silver/red colour scheme of this platinum variant of the original Amvox 2.  I might have to save up for one!

All the best,

Jon

I'm thinking about my next JLC and I'm undecided between the amvox 2 or the geophysic universal time... which one would you pick?

I am unfortunately still in the process of saving up for it and I'm probably going to have to wait a year or so before I can get one.
