For the Jaeger Lecoultre Amvox 5 lovers...
Two pictures of two different versions:
The Racing:
The Racing Paris Boutique Edition:
And the two, side by side:
I never warmed with this " 5 ", because of the pushers... The " 2 " didn't have pushers, so I expected the same on the " 5 ".
But the " 5 " has an extra complication, and not an uninteresting one... The World Time!
What do you think?

Nicolas
Not so much ... Love the WT on it though ...
Much prefer the '2' ... Exciting to see where JLC will take us with this new technical line/watch ... Exciting. I wonder if they will have something to show us at SIHH next year?! Hope so.
I do have the secret hope we'll see something new... and exciting, too. [nt]

As exciting as the news we received in 2007 ...
The revolutionary Extreme LAB undoubtedly ... what an exceptional achievement and unforgettable moment from JLC.
It will be hard to match?

Hard to match, indeed. But they can find some smart ones. I am sure. [nt]

My ideal AMVOX...
would be an AMVOX2 with cermet case just like AMVOX5 , no pushers and the turquoise blue colors of the Paris Boutigue Edition.
As for the " new"technical line....ahhh.what a sweet torture till January...

Funny, I would have loved to see an Amvox II with a world time. ;)
As for the sports line... Let's keep fingers crossed.

AmVox2 World Chrono
I concur! How awesome to see - in a 43 or 44mm case (no bigger), and the new Geophysic Vertical World Chrono? Or, the new Master VC Chrono Transponder (available for ANY car)?

Both w strong appeal but not without a bit of Macho charme.. ;) Which one
.. Is not that easy !
- Actually guess, I'd prefer the Paris Boutique
Edition..
+1 with you on the nifty idea of an Amvox-2 with
a WT, also as this would do away with
the pushers
Cheers & Best,

I love my Amvox 5 ...
Despite of the fact that only the Amvox 1 have the "vox" (alarm) capability.
Didn't knew that there are "color" Amvox 5 but I don't see then as my cup of tea.

Did you notice 'Gaydon' associated to the GMT time zone?
It is of course the little village where Aston Martin has its headquarters. Nice ´clin d'oeil'!

The world time complication in combination with the chrono is very appealing
And the 'French Racing Blue' of the Paris addition even more so. I believe the diameter is also smaller than the Extreme World chrono, right?
Very appealing piece IMHO - one I would like to own someday (but then there are soo many that qualify)

44 mm for the Avmox 5 if I remember well / 46 mm for the Extrem World Compressor. [nt]

Much better size IMO - especially for someone without a massive wrist... [nt]

Well, on another side, I have to say that the EWC doesn't wear like a 46 mm watch. It feels smaller. [nt]
No message body
Somehow I am wary of larger sizes after the Chrono One
While 'only' 42mm, it appears as large as my wrist will take And at 18,5cm it is not massive but also not reed thin, so not sure...
Need to go try some larger watches and see

Depends on many factors, such as the shape of the case, the length of the lugs,
The case back and so on... A test is mandatory...

I know
But testing is always fraught with risk - as it is harder to resist taking the watch home if it fits
