I have a JLC Memovox in a travel alarm clock configuration. It's a beauty!

These videos keep getting better. Great setting and nice/relaxed conversation. A beautiful watch, in amazing condition, with mechanical alarm at a great price point, can't ask for more. Happy Thanksgiving!

Nice design will never go out of style. Another interesting anecdote regarding the Memovox alarm system is that the details engineered by JLC for their Polaris models are quite different in order to improve their underwater acoustics.

Admittedly I learned so much about the history of LeCoultre/Jaeger-LeCoultre post-recording of this in regards to when Jaeger merged with LeCoultre (which was apparently in the late 1930s!). It is wild to see how long the simple “LeCoultre” name was retained on certain watches - and also apparently it very much depended on the market as well.
