AMVOX, THE REVIEW.
By: amanico : January 22nd, 2008-09:04
Well, we all know now that an Amvox III will be presented at the next SIHH, but we still ignore what it will be and what it will look like. So, for the impatients watchnuts, and I include myself, of course, I make this review of the Amvox family. A lot of...
Great report as always Nicolas !
By: jeff 325 : January 22nd, 2008-11:14
I love how all the Amvox 's share a common bond with each other ,but are different in their own ways. I really love the design of the Amvox ll , the way the chrono functions are almost hidden out of sight !
Thank you for reading my mind

Was thinking this morning that I must find somewhere some reviews of Amvox line to help me decide with alarm watch and voila Nicolas uptodate as always Great, marvelous, inspiring
What a wonderful review
By: Asimut : January 22nd, 2008-12:16
I fully agree with your opinions on this great range and also looking forward for the A-III! Thanks for putting up this post! Asi
WOW!!

Thank you for this review

I must admit that the Amvox is very attractive and some of the photos that are displayed in your post really highlight how this watch is a delight! Two years ago, I was very close to choose a Stainless Steel version. Last year, I was even closer to go for...
GREAT report on a great series by JLC...
By: Rob : January 23rd, 2008-01:00
Amvox is under the radar and just a teeny bit unappreciated IMHO. Looking forward to the next version... Thanks for sharing!!!

Hi Sir Moderator, Should i address you Honourable Sir or just Sir?LOLOL>>> The whole post is excellent,my friend.Lots of experince,little on movement,little on technicallity,and lots on your preferences. I would say,i am deeply honoured with my "BHK9" hun...

... a nice review of the AMVOX line is not sufficient to get probation for Magalie! Eagerly awaiting your next argument! Christian P.S.: You mentioned that the SS AMVOX1 was a limited series. That looks erroneous to me! Also I do think that the combinatio...

By: amanico : January 23rd, 2008-03:44
No, no I wrote " Limited Production" not Limited series...I checked and that how JLC presents the SS Amvox I. As for Magali, you know where I wanna go, I'm sure...But you'll see the 2 part of my plead in a few hours now...LOL Totally agree about what you ...
Sorry for misquoting you, Nicolas!
By: HerrK : January 23rd, 2008-03:54
Can you tell me the difference between a limited series and a limited production? Does the latter mean that they only produce a certain (undisclosed) number of watches per annum whilst the first means that the total production of that series is limited to...
Yes, Herrk, you got it >>>
By: amanico : January 23rd, 2008-04:02
If I'm not wrong it's even written on the Case Back of the SS Amvox I. I just don't know how many per year JLC makes. I'll ask and let you informed. Best. Nicolas
"Special Edition" on back of stainless steel Amvox1
By: Dje : January 23rd, 2008-07:43
Hi Nicolas, One more great line review! I have an Amvox1 on my wrist today and it's still a great pleasure. I can't wait for your next review, a very nice one, and less dangerous! Cheers Dje
Now what does that mean?
By: HerrK : January 23rd, 2008-08:45
Jerome as I understand you own the regular (limited) production SS one. Does the "Special Edition" refer to the AMVOX series in general then? If so, it should be on the back of the titanium too. But it is not! Christian
Nicolas, as I happen to wear ...
By: HerrK : January 23rd, 2008-09:19
... mine today, I checked that before posting of course. But the SS reads "Special Edition" and not "Limited Edition" according to Jerome. A special edition in my understanding means that there is something special about that watch. As it is the regular p...
great review !
By: GH1 : January 23rd, 2008-04:19
It gave me a better understanding of the union of 2 great brands . Im particularly impressed with the innovative spirit of JLC , the sapphire glass acting as chrono pushers on the amvox II is a wonder ! Thanks George
Size
By: christoffer : June 19th, 2008-09:27
Nicolas, Thanks for the report I would like some statistics. Can you let me know the difference in size from the Amvox 1, Amvox2 and the Trubute to Polaris (Steel), in terms of width, diameter, thikness and buckle size. Thx, C
Great to have found this forum
By: compulsivebuyer : November 19th, 2008-12:58
Hi Nicolas (is this right?), it is a pleasure to have found a forum where people really share their passions, respect each other's opinions without bashing and insults. I have just ordered the Amvox1 SS and waiting for delivery. I am starting to have a li...
Yes, I'm Nicolas,
By: amanico : November 19th, 2008-13:03
I live in Paris and I didn't buy a watch since 2 weeks, now...LOLOLOL Welcome in this peaceful place, where only good guys are here, to share and feed everyone's dreams and pleasures... No Bash, No Trolls, only Passion, Opinion, and Information! Congrats ...
Thanks for the reassurance.
By: compulsivebuyer : November 19th, 2008-13:11
I just hope this watch will not fall out of favour very soon. By the way, I recenty saw some new Rolex (a Submariner and a GMT Master II) in what seems to be in titanium or carbon-liked material (the bracelet is charcoal grey and not at all stainless stee...
Pro Hunter Rolex, maybe?
By: amanico : November 19th, 2008-13:13
Or the previous owner pvdized it, which is quite current, nowadays... Not a big fan, although... Best! Nicolas
Pro Hunter it is!!
By: compulsivebuyer : November 19th, 2008-13:44
Tu as raison, c'est le pro hunter de BJSonline! Quelle déception! Merci pour cette info. Juste une petite question, pourquoi tu es le JLC Moderator? Achètes-tu que des JLC?
Non, Thomas
By: amanico : November 19th, 2008-13:47
But I have a quite serious Collection of JLC Watches, modern and Vintage too... I also own Watches from 13 other brands... But Yes, I really love and respect JLC for what they are and offer... That's why I'm Moderator for JLC. Best. Nicolas
Impressive
By: compulsivebuyer : November 19th, 2008-13:56
Oufff, I thought I was being unreasonable with 6 watches, but I guess I have just found a whole connection of pure watch collectors!! I should tell my wife this!
Late to the party..
By: Phat Guido : December 29th, 2008-12:03
What a great review - I never considered myself as a JLC person until yesterday. I was on my way to pickup a GO Sport Evo GMT, but could not make the final transaction as I found the GO to be too shiny/BLING with all the polished surfaces. Even though the...
