Why is there not much discussion on the new Amvox 2 DBS in Stainless Steel

 
 By: cedric_kinki : July 23rd, 2009-22:40
Just wondering why this is not much discussion on this watch.. even though it was introduced only recently at SIHH 2009... anyone.......  

I agree with you

 
 By: jaeger92 : July 24th, 2009-00:21
A wonderful watch that is not well known or appreciated because of it "big" size ? don't know. I made a review of it in another place and was surprised by reactions. Obviously a little bif for my whrist (but why not, it could be my "panerai" ), but an inc...  

Good question. My answer.

Hey, i think this can be explained by the fact that there is a saturation of the AMVOX 2 line. The original concept seems to have been lost along the way, which in my eyes was a watch based on the JLC + Aston Martin asthetics. The inspiration of the Aston... 

Good points, but...

 
 By: respo : July 24th, 2009-06:27
I agree, there is probably some saturation of the market with the AMVOX2 in general. There have been a lot of versions of this watch since the original was introduced several years ago, although I would suggest that the versions are quite different in app... 

true....

AMVOX 3 is very different..... Cheers

I tried on the AMVOX3 just today...

 
 By: respo : July 24th, 2009-11:03
...less than an hour ago, in fact. My initial reaction to this watch was not entirely positive, but having now seen it a couple of times ands tried it on, it is very impressve. The auto rotor visible through the back is beautiful. It has a nice weight to ... 

I also....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 24th, 2009-11:07
tried it on about a month ago. I agree with your comments. Cheers

Any photos????

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 24th, 2009-11:09

Sadly, no.

 
 By: respo : July 24th, 2009-11:39
I have not yet gotten comfortable taking photos of watches while visiting my AD. Too, bad. But at least you have experienced this one for yourself recently.

Here are 2 pics of the amvox III in platinum

 
 By: amanico : July 24th, 2009-11:55
Defintely my favourite, compared to the RG version... Best, Nicolas...  

You can't argue with the platinum

 
 By: respo : July 24th, 2009-12:01
Oddly, the Aston Martin reference is more prominent on the AMVOX3 than on its predecessors. Not sure how I feel about that, as I have always admired the subtlety of the cross branding. Thanks for posting some additional shots. respo

An effect of the flash I had to use, too, Respo.

 
 By: amanico : July 24th, 2009-12:16
In real much more discrete! Best, Nicolas

If I recall correctly....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 24th, 2009-21:22
it is not a prominent on the RG version Cheers

I had not....

Actually, I made a post about it, in January 2009...

Make a search, you will see more pics. Best, Nicolas

Will do- thanks ::))

Your Servitor, Nicolas...  

The Amvox III is another of these watches which have

 
 By: amanico : July 24th, 2009-11:42
To be seen again and again, preferabily in the flesh, to fully appreciate them... I really love it, with a light preference for the platinum one, which was released at the beginning of this year. Agreed, Respo. Best, nicolas

Well, I just answered, Xavier

 
 By: amanico : July 24th, 2009-13:48
To make it short, yes I agree when you say that it is not a LE anymore, as quite 4 000 were made, all versions included. BUT, do we have to see it as a LE, or as an interesting, original, and why not, a funny watch? As for the A II DBS in titanium, go and...

Amvox 2...

 
 By: david.graham : July 24th, 2009-07:22
I really like the entire range of these watches. I think they should settle on a design and introduce it into the standard range in the catalogue. Can't be doing with too many LE's and yet it seems to be a track JLC are treading with greater regularity. C... 

Actually, we often spoke about the Amvox II

 
 By: amanico : July 24th, 2009-08:58
The fact is that as some already said, we made quite a lot of posts about the Amvox II and its different variations. The DBS, The Transponder, the Amvox II DBS, and now, the Amvox II Racing. I say variations because they are cosmetic evolutions of the sam... 

Maybe....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 24th, 2009-09:48
our dear moderator would like to instigate the greatest roll call for AMVOX like the Polaris one lol Cheers

Both Respo & Nicolas....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 24th, 2009-09:46
said it quite well. There has been a lot of discussion here about the AMVOX 2. The new ss version is just a different metal. Nicolas is right, it is not really a limited edition, but on the other hand it is not unlimited and at the end of the day it does ... 

i'm a bit ignorant of the Amvox II versions.

 
 By: G99 : July 28th, 2009-14:46
i'm aware of the original which i really like. i'm aware of the DBS transponder sold only with or after purchase of a DBS. i'm also aware of the new racing version which i'm not a fan of. i have seen a black Ti model which i really love the look of. there... 

I tried to....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 28th, 2009-17:21
upload a picture or mine but the system could not take it I will try later Meanwhile if you try a search you will see some photos of the AMVOX 2 DBS Cheers

Thank you but.....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 29th, 2009-04:26
you have seen this one before, haven't you? Cheers

Always a pleasure to see it, again and again, PP

 
 By: amanico : July 29th, 2009-04:31
It reminds me that I also saw it in the flesh in Taormina ( Sicily ) 1 yera and a half ago... The idea of getting it crossed my mind... Best, Nicolas

I know....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 29th, 2009-09:42
you are more a platinum than a rg person lol Cheers

thanks Pink Panther, but personally...

 
 By: G99 : July 29th, 2009-01:44
thanks Pink Panther, but personally i prefer the original. i usually like Skeleton dials, but this just looks a bit too busy. a chrono, on the rare occasions that we ever use one, needs to be easy to read quickly and i dont know if this is. best Graham

It is busy....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 29th, 2009-04:29
but I do not think that it is difficult to read The first AMVOX 2 is easier to read but both of them are, in my opinion beautiful in their own way Cheers

AWESOME!!!!!!!

 
 By: respo : July 29th, 2009-05:55
Ah, the RG on this DBS is just so warm. Great wrist shot, Pink. There are few watches that photograph better than the DBS, IMHO. Cheers, respo

The various AMVOX2 versions

Just a bit under 4 000, Respo

 
 By: amanico : July 29th, 2009-06:49
Yes, I made the count, a few weeks ago, and I arrived just under the 4 000... You've forgotten one ref, but I can't blame you... Best, Nicolas

Which one did I forget? [nt]

There is not a secret anymore... Amvox II Racing " Paris Boutique Edition "... 24 pieces, only. Best, Nicolas

Damn! Those Paris Boutique editions are always getting me into trouble. ;-)

 
 By: respo : July 29th, 2009-07:03
Can you post a picture of this one or direct me to a prior post, please? I think I may have heard about it, but perhaps only once or not at all, and yes I missed this one, so now we are up to 3,673, correct? In your post about LeMans there were what appea...

I feel your trouble, my friend, when it comes to Paris Boutique edition... What I can tell you is that it will come with a PVD black case, lie on the Black A II Racing, but with the white dial of the other A II Racing version, and maybe something special,... 

I included the Transponders, but...

What's not to love?

 
 By: respo : July 29th, 2009-10:35
But you are crazy, man, considering another AMVOX2. LOL You are a very greedy boy, indeed. LOL. But yes, the racing models are very tempting. Wait to see what the Boutique edition looks like. That may be something very special. respo

Yes....

 
 By: MiniCooper : July 29th, 2009-11:00
but it shows how much I love the AMVOX series Cheers

Do you...

Not yet, but

 
 By: amanico : July 29th, 2009-11:07
If you see my post about the A II Racing, take the black case with the white dial of the other, and you will have 90 % of the Amvox II Racing Boutique Edition. Best, Nicolas

Wow Respo.....
