" For me, it was a near ultimate watch wearing driving experience! ".
You, the RM Moderator, states that?
I agree with you on that statement, my friend.
The Amvox line, and specially the II, has a strong link with the Cars World, indeed. The details, the concept, well ,the spirit are very strongly linked to automotive.
Very nice report, which makes me deeply regret to not have been able to make it, too!
All the best,

Jaeger LeCoultre AMVOX7: A symbiotic relationship between watch and car!
[The watch and car: needless to say when driving the watch was not left attached to the wheel! Note the materials of the wheel: the red brake calipers, the titanium wheel, the carbon fibre brake disc]. Its a strange thing; you only truly appreciate the w...
Very interesting!
I have to say, seeing the various AMVOXes II- VII lined up in that photo, helps me to appreciate the design of the new 7 better. I am getting to like it very much. The re-design of the caseback to curve more so as to conform better to the wrist seems like...

Sorry you were not there. As for Richard's driver
watches, they are intended for drivers and cars far beyond my driving capabilities!! Richard tests his watches to extremes: including Felipe Massa crashing with his RM006 on his wrist! The watch was still working after the crash. Kind of glad I did not ha...
Speed and engineering.
The more I see it, since its launch, the more I want to see it in the flesh. Thanks for this very nice storytelling. Yet, I wonder if you have the answers to some question I have. - It seems quite big (same width but a little thicker): does it feel light ...
I am almost sure that I was 'playing with' the prototype
at the Boutique. At the Millbrook test circuit I think I had a production version, although not too sure on that one. The watch is light on the wrist because of the titanium casing. It is to my mind just a little bit thicker because of the way the outer c...
Your post has just made the watch and the connection more meaningful to me.
Thanks a lot. Ruckdee
So much anguish I need a Vanquish!
Thank you for posting this article on both a marvelous watch and an incredible super car. I look forward to trying the former at my local JLC AD. If they should happen to throw in the then I'll oblige.
I believe that neither watch comes with car, or
car comes with watch! They are mutually separable purchase decisions, although I would argue that you really should try and purchase both - and at the same time! Thanks Andrew H
I like this watch a lot
The two things that will hinder my purchase are: 1) the AM logo on the dial 2) the price I may actually reconsider the 2! But if I owned an AM, I would surely get this to go along. Jeff
You might want to check the production version
of the watch. I cannot recall seeing the AM logo. The other issue I cannot do much about; other than to say it is a fab watch! Not a lot of help - I realise. Thanks for reading. Andrew H
thanks for the ride Andrew!
great pics as always. no matter how stable the car, I sure hope it wasnt you doing both driving and taking the side view mirror shot on track! ;-) Cheers, TM
No, the rather fashionable wrist with the watch on
for the photos belonged to one of the AM test drivers. We then had a go with the watch and car ourselves, with an instructor present - just in case the excitement over the watch became too much! Was a fun day out! And my thanks to JLC and AM for making it...
Transponder question!
Sorry if this is in the wrong thread! I've tried to read through your past discussions - which have been extremely enlightening - but I am curious - can you help me put together a list of the AMVOX models that have a transponder available to lock/unlock t...
There is only one for you. This one.
But I doubt it is still available. Ask your Aston Martin AD, he will tell you. Best, Nicolas. ...
