\nWe love us a nice Aston Martin<\/a> here at Autoblog. But if the British purveyor of the grandest of grand touring cars has a counterpart in the watchmaking industry, it’s surely Jaeger-LeCoultre. Good thing the two of them just signed a three-year renewal of their partnership, then.<\/p>\n

The collaboration between these two esteemed marques has resulted in some of the most lust-worthy wrist-machines known to man, not the least of which is the AMVOX2 Chronograph<\/a>. Its innovative design actually incorporates a transponder to open and close the doors on an Aston sports car. Plus it’s just one of the slickest looking timepieces we’ve seen yet.<\/p>\n

While JLC has to date only produced wristwatches to compliment Aston’s road cars, the Swiss watchmaker has just come out with the AMVOX2 Chronograph Racing, in tribute to Aston’s considerable motorsport prowess on the streets of Le Mans. The 280-piece, 41-jewel 751E manufacture movement – only 5.65 millimeters thick – is housed in a PVD-coated titanium case and held to the wrist by a perforated and top-stitched calfskin strap.<\/p>\n

It is, to our eye, one of the most beautiful machines – of any kind – to carry the Aston Martin name, but while the series has bred numerous editions, only 24 examples of this particular one will be made available exclusively at JLC’s boutique on Place Vendôme in Paris. So we’ll just have to content ourselves with the press release after the jump and images in the gallery below.<\/p>\n
