Sunday picture: Jaeger Lecoultre Amvox 7.

Mar 29, 2015,00:18 AM
 

Since its unveil in 2012, if I remember correctly, we almost never discussed this Amvox, which is, basically, an Amvox II with a re designed dial and an original feature, the radial power reserve, between 10 and 2 o clock.

 

 

And another interesting difference, the location of the date at 6 o clock, much better, in my opinion, than on the Amvox II.

 

As the happy owner of the original Amvox II, I prefer mine, but this one was not bad. No turning Wheel at 6 to show you that the movement is running, quite Young design of the dial, original power reserve, it had some aesthetical qualities.

What do you think?

Best,

Nicolas

.. As said "..nothing moving seen", is that ref the mvmt, or doesn't it have a seconds-hand ? - Sorry, my eyes getting worse, it appears.. I also like the "normal" Amvox II" as the one ! Best, and have a great Sunday !! hs

No, no seconds hand. Your eyes are good.

Me too, without any hesitation. But there are some cool ideas, here.

I realise when I select which Amvox Chrono I like or not, that it is a matter of do they have a detail I really don't like or not. I like those models but there is often something wrong to me. This one is really nice and comes in 2nd place behing the Amvo...  

The original Amvox II is for you, then.

A nice placeholder, but the Amvox line requires new blood.

Thank you for highlighting this little-discussed Amvox. Besides the power reserve, this model incorporates another feature overlooked thus far in this thread: the strap release tabs from the Compressor Extreme series. Combined with the application of more... 

Very interesting, Tim.

There are many Amvox Fans who are expecting much more. And yes, the answer or the solution is still pending. Since some years, now, maybe since the Amvox III, I don't feel the Amvox line achives our expectations. The 5 makes a strange come back with its c... 

I, personally, think...

the AV7 is awesome! Why? It's not JUST an update to the AV2 with vertical trigger, it includes a nicely re-designed dial, the dual radial power-reserve (borrowed and cut in half from the Geophysic 2), AND an updated quick-change strap release, as seen on ...
