Which watch did you end up going for? Pics please :)
I'm also recently interested in the AMVOX 2. As much as I love my Tribute to Deep Sea Alarm, I am always thinking about the plexi glass on my watch.
I find the AMVOX 2 to be a great daily wearer (at least from pictures, I wish I could see it in person), and it'll match up well for both weekdays during work and weekends.
I'm also stuck in the decision right now as I'm browsing around online for a choice between Titanium and the PVD version. I can't tell if the PVD will make the watch too informal for wear with a suit. I know Tinker has shown photos, but I wish there were more available to see!
Take some pictures of your new purchase with a suit on, I'd love to see!
Opinions sought for AMVOX2 !!!
Dear Purists, I am writing you to ask for opinions on three AMVOX2 chronographs, which I may have the good fortune of acquiring. To be clear, and unfortunately, I have only funds for one and must choose one out of the three. My options are the titanium ve...
I had both the first Amvox II and the Racing.
I ended with the first edition, and very happy with my choice. I got a bit tired of the semi open dial, to say all, and I prefer(red) the most versatile look of the first version, with its plain dial. Yes, you can wear it with a suit, or with a pair of je...
Hi Cholack...
You seem to have really "formal" requirements. Assuming that you're really just restricting yourself to these 3 (lots of round dial choices for business/casual in and outside of JLC), the first one (AMVOX2 Chrono) would be the one that may wear well over ...
Thanks...
For the comments. Does anyone have any wrist shots, and specifically of the Racing version? Hopefully, I will have made my decision by mid-month.
I like the DBS
I like the colors and the whole layout. It feels the most sophisticated and elegant of the three somehow, even with the 'busy-ness' of the overall dial. Regarding the too casual for office... I'd submit that 99% of all co-workers will not notice or care w...
I much appreciate....
The opinions given so far. Nicholas, thanks very much for the picture; it confirms my own opinions of the Racing version, which is that it is MUCH more sport than formal....actually, a little bit more polarizing than I thought. Mostel, yup I'm sure that v...
The simpler, the better....
IMHO. The watch is already quite complicated, especially for more formal wear. I bought the original Ti-PVD last year, and simply LOVE it. It is not my daily wearer, but I wear it probably at least half the week. And it IS my dress watch. I have posted el...
One last thing--
I for one find your second option rather hard to read-- it's a pretty busy dial without the open face. but I am getting older!
Thanks Tinker
For the pictures and opinions. What has always held me back from going forward with the PVD version is the question of its durability/longevity. My personal type is somewhat OCD, so the thought of a shiny sliver of metal peek out under the PVD coating wou...
PVD
Well, I have only had the watch about 18 months, and bought it new at JLC BH. But.... It is absolutely immaculate, not a scratch on the PVD-- so far so good. And I am not "easy" on my watches. That's not to say i am rough on them, but I try not to be craz...
I agree
After being initially skeptical, I gave in t my wife's claims I could wear my Amvox 2 chrono (non dbs) with a suit.... and it really does look great. I think a bit large for more formal settings / client meetings but for a normal day in the office its fin...
I have no problems wearing it at the Court.
It is sport chic, and not bling bling. For once that a watch is not a Rolex.... Best, Nicolas
