Amvox I and II were the best Amvox, in my opinion.

Apr 17, 2016,23:54 PM
 

The III is something, too, but not in the same financial league, while the 1 played the card of nostalgy, and the 2, the card of the concept. 


The 7 is an evolution of the 2. 

And the 5 adds a world time to the chronograph, but sadly, this last one is classic, I mean, with pushers. 

So, you own the best of the Amvox spirit, here. 

Bravo, my friend. Bravo.

Nicolas

Some shots of my Amvox series.. A fresh look on a superb Chronograph.. Great design prevailing

Friends, Guess we all pretty much agree on the nice & rich heritage of a family of JLC sports watches, which exhibit great design, cool appearance and superb functionality. Well, I'm talking about the Amvox family of sports timepieces; while the Amvox 1 h...

Another great pick up! But unlike Nicolas, to me the only true AMVOX is the first. The second is a fantastic concept chrono.... But more like a AMCHRON than a AMVOX! Best Blomman

thanks for sharing those amazing pieces.

that green timepiece looks like the military series, it is so cool the splendid dial combine with the delicate strap.

Thx for your nice words & the kind interest !.. Yes, really like them both.. :))

Really good review H....

.....i love the details and the emotion you fill. I bought Amvox I a couple of years ago...and was quite torn between whether to choose I or II..... you have me wondering...again. See you soon. Joe

Thx for your nice words, J !.. Well, for me they share some design code (hands).. Also..

 
 By: hs111 : April 18th, 2016-01:00
.. in my humble view, they rather are complementary.. ( Memovox one, unique Chrono the 2, in my case open dial). Yes, looking forward to seeing you soon.. Cheers, hs

Thanks for this wonderful homage to these spectacular watches!

I have for a long time been very much into the Amvox I only, but fell for the two slowly at first, and then after having tried it on, much faster You summarize the reasons very well. I also like the freshness of the design, the concept nature, etc. Also a... 

Thx for your kind sentiment & the nice words !.. Yes, to some degree the MCM is a sort of predecessor..

 
 By: hs111 : April 18th, 2016-01:09
Something really different with a strong & "independent" character . - Am pretty sure you would enjoy it. Continue to enjoy your Amvox 2 in the Best of your health ! Again, thx for your friendly comments ! Best, hs

Not there yet with the Amvox 2...

 
 By: KMII : April 18th, 2016-01:18
Just tried it on and it got much higher on the to get list - but did not get it just yet. Only so many watches per year before I start sleeping on the couch

Thank you!

Let\'s see how long the head keeps the heart in check and thereby saves the wallet Some Chopards coming back from the spa today to keep me happy in the meantime...

Nice post on the Amvox series!

I can't help noticing the pic. of Ms. Metrailler, who looked like she just walked in from the beach at St. Tropez. I was always attracted to the early Amvoxes but finally settled for a V due to its WT/chrono function and the super light cermet case. Here'...  

Thx for your kind looking & sharing your nice V, multi-purpose by featuring both WT + Chrono.. Also like the red stiched strap ! :))

 
 By: hs111 : April 18th, 2016-03:02
Furthermore, It carries an extra cool note augmented by that dark cermet case. - Enjoy wearing yours in the Best of your health ! Chees & Best, hs

And a V in Ceramic and Rose Gold.

And an alternative V... Unfortunately this one is on the way back to JLC as it stopped on my wrist last week. Amvox V in Ceramic and Rose Gold ...

Give to me a deep regret, by having passing one and I never saw another one "in metal". Congratulations for your Amvox set. To me the Amvox line is one of the best series ever made by the Manufacture. I need to visit my Amvox set that resides on a bank du...  

Thx, Nilo for your kind looking !.. Indeed, we both agree, that the Amvox line is one of the best, ever made by LGM..

 
 By: hs111 : April 18th, 2016-06:48
.. Also thx for sharing this pic of yours, the DB9 edition, also in line with the top automotive theme.. I am sure you will be pleased to get one of them from the bank vault & give it some wristtime ! Thx again and Best, hs

I would say that the Duometre is the best, then the Amvox.

 
 By: amanico : April 18th, 2016-10:36
But the problem with the Amvox family is that JLC didn't never beat the 1 and the 2... In my opinion. Best, Nicolas

+1 on your remark .. Yes, Duometres are the very top.. The Amvox line had a certain....

 
 By: hs111 : April 18th, 2016-10:47
.. hiatus after 1 & 2., but those firsts stand out, as you said. And indeed, of the Duometres there is a whole card-deck of Aces. Cheers & Best, hs

Other league...

The Duometre is far from being a sports watch. Just like the Amvox 3. Only for VERY special occasions. Cheers, Nilo

Only for special occasions??? I would wear it as often as I can!

 
 By: amanico : April 18th, 2016-13:54
In fact, I wore my Duometre à Chronographe in platinum very often. I think I would wear the white gold black dial even more due to its more polyvalent look. Best, Nilo. Nicolas

Wonderful post and collection my dear Hs!! Enjoyed the presentation as well...
