So, so, so, Melvyn ....
At 3 o clock, you have a 30 minutes subdial.
The Red Triangle is the " hand ", in fact a repere.
The subdial is in fact a disc.
Same for the 12 hours " subdial " at 9 o clock.
In fact I should have written " counter instead of subdial.
Best, Melvyn!

Well it may not be a groundbreaker but
the new design is the best ever for this series, I love it! And I have never even liked the previous models, except 'kinda'.

I love the way this brings some of the EL2 elements in!
I still don't like the Aston logo on the dial or frankly, the association at all.
I'm unsure about the date at 6 too--it may add a somewhat pedestrian visual?
A little too ordinary, the date?
I LOVE the new chrono 'wheels'--WOW, SUCH an improvement.
Great watch!!!
It is difficullt to discuss " Aesthetics ". Some will like, others won't.
Nobody is wrong, here.
About the date, I think it doess less break the balance of the dial where it is located on this new Amvox, but I can't help thinking that it would be even better without...
Here again, it is a matter of preference...
Thanks for your input, Mostel.
Best,

I'm not sure I have ever identified my favorite Amvox II.
Many nice variants. Probably the DBS Racing. But I think I could pick a few that I would choose over this 7, at least at first glance.
Interesting note about the Spanish Boutique piece not being produced.
Still in love with my Amvox II first generation, to say all.
I am not a fan of the power reserve, but I have to admit that for once, this one is well thought, with this racing " clin d'oeil ".
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, my friend.
Best,
Nicolas
fuzzy dial
I like bi-direction red band for power reserve. It's look better than the one in Extreme Lab.
But the dial is too fuzzy and not easy for reading.
Thumbs up!
The design has been streamlined and colors are better than in previous models.
While not a potential Amvox buyer myself, this is the version I like best so far. [nt]
