I like cars, and my dream cars has almost covered all the well-known brands. In general, the Aston Martin Rapide is my favorite. Now the prestigious watchmaker Jaeger-LeCoultre has collaborated with Aston Martin to offer a stylish solution for Rapide drivers who have been always in need of looking for car keys. With the extreme contemporary AMVOX2 Transponder Rapide, you have no need to fumble around for the lugging chunky and unattractive key fobs any more, as well as to buy a second luxury watch.

This high-tech timepiece is able to do double-duty as a car key. It enables you to unlock the car by simply touching between the 8 and 9, or touch between the 3 and 4 to lock. And by touching them both simultaneously, the “find me” function can be activated to make the headlamps light up for easy spotting.

In order to fit it into and around the workings of the watch without sacrificing style, the designers and engineers cost over 18 months to miniaturize the car’s transponder key. The watch and the car are perfect match. Anyway, you need £21,850 (or about $33,800) to solve the key-finding problem.
