Function Selector
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 labelled 'selector' with the choice of gmt, set and a '2' or a 'Z'. At the rim of the dial where is another mysterious complication with colour segments turning from white to black - perhaps a kind of running indicator? The shape of the hands seem to have AMVOX-style IMHO, so it might be the AMVOX IV. Anyway, a cool watch with a lot of innovative features to discover!
Cheers,

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

Amvox IV on the top of Himalaya Waouh
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
lab
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...
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!
