GWIS's acquisition of the Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX 2 Chronograph Racing highlights the enduring appeal of this distinctive timepiece. His initial impressions emphasize the watch's surprising comfort due to its titanium construction and the remarkable depth of its dial, proving that some watches truly must be experienced in person. This article delves into GWIS's personal journey with the AMVOX line, influenced by fellow collectors, and explores the community's shared appreciation for this unique JLC series.

 Thanks to the bad influence of Nico and Filip I have just received this AMVOX 2 Racing and I just wanted to share a quick picture.

As with some many watches, it is so much better in the flesh. The dial has real depth and the titanium makes it very light and comfortable to wear.

The watch was serviced by JLC in Japan in March and it looks new. It’s on a nice calfskin strap but it’s not as good as a proper AMVOX strap, which I have already ordered via the JLC boutique in London.

I am very impressed and now I want the steel version, an AMVOX 7, the original AMVOX 2 in black, an AMVOX 3…..!

Many thanks to Nico for his words of wisdom about the AMVOX series over the years and for Filip’s recent posts about his black version of this watch, which finally pushed me over the edge after many years of admiring the AMVOX line

I will post some more pictures once I have it on a proper strap.

All the best

Jon

Yes, I was lucky to find this version in such good condition. Finding a Paris Boutique edition would be much more difficult!
