Simply Abu Dhabi VIII

Feliciano López Diaz- Guerra is a Spanish professional male tennis player. He was born in Toledo and now lives in the Spanish capital, Madrid. Lopez achieved his current career-high singles ranking of World No. 15 in January 2012. José Adrián Fernández Mier is a Mexican racing driver and co- owner of the Fernandez Racing team. David Pender Richards CBE (b. 3 June 1952, Britain) is the chairman of Prodrive and Aston Martin, and a former team principal of the BAR and Benetton Formula One motor racing teams. For both Jaeger-LeCoultre and Aston Martin, it would have been inconceivable to stop there. While others might have been satisfied with the result achieved, the development team of the AMVOX7 Chronograph further enriched this prodigious range of innovations with a system enabling quick and easy wristband changes to match to the mood and the needs of the moment. There is a metal bracelet that proves a worthy companion for sporting and outdoor activities, while the sobriety of its leather counterpart will accentuate the distinction of a watch that smoothly adapts to the most elegant circumstances. Such sterling qualities call for an “engine” endowed with characteristics on a par with the expectations generated by such an impressive appearance. In this field too, connoisseurs will appreciate the Jaeger-LeCoultre mechanical automatic Calibre 756. With its frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour and its 65- hour power reserve, it displays an impressive track record in terms of sturdiness, reliability and precision. Indeed, what else would one expect from a mechanism whose performance will necessarily be compared to those of the new Aston Martin Vanquish? An association is fuelled exclusively by the momentum injected into it by each of the two partners. While it may seem simple for a prestigious watch brand to enter into an alliance with a renowned car manufacturer, the flame of enthusiasm unanimously sensed when signing such an agreement can soon dwindle to nothing in the absence of shared values. But this is clearly not the case in the dynamic partnership between Jaeger- LeCoultre and AstonMartin; indeed, it appears to be evenmore vibrantly alive than ever as it enters its eighth year. This association has already given rise to some exceptional creations, embodying major progress in the field of technology. The secret of this long-term success is firmly based on a shared vision, nurtured from both sides by an authentic passion for innovation. And the extraordinary results, on the wrist, are there for everyone to see! 1 1 7 S I M P LY A B U DH A B I
