In a world were luxury gains more and more court, two leaders of luxury joined together in order to form a line of watches dedicated to such lovers. Only in a few years this prospering alliance turned the AMVOX line to “the ultimate expression of the imaginary world of the two legends – Jaeger – LeCoultre”, a well – known Swiss watchmaker, and Aston Martin, a renowned English manufacturer of luxury performance cars. Aston Martin as well as Jaeger – LeCoultre feature a valuable and they both have committed to producing superfine handmade designs in these both fields.

         The latest Jaeger – LeCoultre AMVOX3 Tourbillon GMT is another proof that the partnership between the two: Aston Martin and Jaeger – LeCoultre is based on enclosing precision engineering in a stupefying design managing in this way to create a perfect watch.

         The Jaeger – LeCoultre watch incorporates both sporting and elegant features and the round high – tech ceramics case managed to combine perfectly the two contradictory styles. But the greatest achievement is the fact that they realized to create such a watch which is distinguished by resistance and stability. Another innovative material which is also used is the ceramics which is scratch – resistant, extremely light (only a little heavier than the titanium and much lighter than steel). It is well – known that Aston Martin started using ceramics for the braking systems.

         The AMVOX3 Tourbillon GMT incorporates the automatic Jaeger – LeCoultre Calibre 988 tourbillon movement handmade and designed by hand as well. The new mechanism system beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour, offers two time – zone displays as well as a date that performs a large jump between the 31st and the 1st day of each month, created in such a way that it will not interfere with the full view of the tourbillion mechanism. It also provides a 48 – hour power reserve.

         Another innovative thing about this watch is the eye – paralyzing openworked dial unveils the ruthenium – coated bridges and baseplate, as well as blackened central bridge of the AP/PM indicator. What is to be admired at this watch is the tourbillon carriage which only weights 280 mg and it is crafted in grade 5 titanium. It is cut, handmade and fine – tuned and furnished with ruthenium treatment.

         Some other main new element about the watch is the upper tourbillon bridge crafted in 4N decorated metal aluminum exhibits an automobile design. What is produced of black eloxed aluminum is the AM/PM indicator bridge, while the platinum – iridium alloy and carbon fiber arms is used when making the patented oscillating weight.

         Despite the 44mm ceramics case architecture incorporated in 18k pink gold bezel, gilded with sapphire crystal, the watch has still got some major technical that should not be forgotten when manufacturing such a watch like the meter water resistance.

         The new Jaeger-LeCoultre AMVOX3 Tourbillon GMT is available in a limited edition of 300 pieces just like the Aston Martin cars which are addressed to a specific public.
