lazyreuvin - I regret selling a Memovox for £250 about 20 years ago.

Maybe a JLC watch should be my grail watch or my next big birthday celebration watch. They certainly don’t get the love that they should do. Great video Watchfinder.

[@artagain8977]

I bought an Omega instead. Not way overpriced for what you get.

[@Chris-pb3se]

Just watched this with the captions on so I didn’t wake anyone. All the things JLC was translated to is hysterical. As always, excellent video. The production value is outstanding. Great camera work, well written and executed.

[@geoffreylangton4372]

Bought my Reverso last year. Finally placing a nice classic in a collection of sport watches. It’s just absolutely stunning to look at!

The Watchfinder saga can be divided in two big eras: the first when "Jager" is pronounced by him "Yeh-gàh", and the second when he pronounces it "Jhé-jhe".

[@omarsaletovicprins9632]

its Yeh-gah, no?

[@lemmetjie]

@@omarsaletovicprins9632 The one he pronounced in this vid was the correct one.. hahaha 😆 It's hard to pronounce some of the watch brands (ALS, Longines,Blancpain and the others)

[@patrickdaly5988]

The Chuck Yeager thing used really annoy me, given how good the accompanying content would be. Then again, I'm sure watchfinder use an actor for their videos... it's not the voices own script.

[@ThePiquedPigeon]

By the way, until I've started watching Watchfinder, I've always pronounced it "Jèh-gehr"...

[@xmaverickhunterkx]

I guess he went for a full "french" pronounciation because of the LeCoultre.

[@RooslanKhayrov]

Kudos for showing us the new Master Control Memovox in action so quickly after its release. A stunning watch, it's a pity that the regular production model looks so bland in comparison.

[@arslanian]

I knew I wanted a Memovox but now I need one.

[@mrk131324]

A mechanical alarm is indeed a very cool and actually useful feature of a watch. But just for the way it is used I prefer the Vulcain Cricket and Seiko Bellmatic over the JLC Memovox.

[@mi626]

That blue dial Memovox is out of this world!

[@matthiaskrause1155]

This video is better and more in-depth than the actual footage for the Memovox Timer from JLC themselves.

[@patrickjean-philippe7679]

I love them. I have the Memovox Tribute to Polaris 1968 which was released in 2008. It is my preferred watch for its finesse, unique design and alarm complication and school bell 🔔 sound ! Awesome ! In fact I wonder why Patek Philippe is not doing alarm watches. I would love a Patek Philippe alarm watch.

[@adeelnissar5965]

Nowadays we have smart-phone timers at the touch of a button, yet everyone gets parking tickets.

[@matcaballes]

Using my own experience, the cellphone is not as convenient, or personal, as I thought. Setting an alarm on a phone requires a few more (and unpleasant) steps as the device is not ergonomic nor as accessible as the wrist. My mind moved away from thinking that a phone was for convenience and more in line with it pandering to my laziness. And laziness doesn't like extra steps. Is my experience, scientific or logical? I don't know, but that's why I think wristwatches are certainly better at developing a respect for time.

Love the story telling which compliments they reviews so well! And JLC is the brand I wish I could go for next. Their ranges are just so on point. Something for every occasion, great women’s watches, wonderful finishing, and better value than The Big 3???

[@robertsullivan4773]

The problem as of late is their pricy as they should be for what your getting. But there value retention as in resale is pretty bad. As we have seen the last few months its nice to have the fine watch on your wrist worth something close to what you paid for it if you have to hock it.

[@watchgeek6712]

@@robertsullivan4773 That assumes you plan to sell your watch in the future or as you described it, hock it. The "watch is an investment" argument is getting old. I have a Master Geographic and I would never sell it. If you purchase a watch with the idea you might have to hock it, then buying a watch is not a good idea.

[@robertsullivan4773]

@@watchgeek6712 First I was just pointing out how our lives can change very fast almost over night. One never knows when extra cash might be in short supply. I love my watches investment grade or not they are the first place I would look if cash got tight.

[@benstacey5508]

While JLC is an incredible watchmaking company, there are many watch enthusiasts who would say that Audemar Piquet, Patek Phillipe, Vacheron Constantin, Gerard Perregaux, A.Lange & Sohne and lesser known watch brands like De Buthane and Laurent Ferrier knock JLC out of the park... I disagree. In my opinion; JLC really is the watchmaker’s watchmaker - you can buy any of the watches they currently offer without getting the runt of the litter, at a pretty reasonable price considering the level of quality, finish and innovation you’re receiving. If I was to win the lottery tomorrow, JLC would be my first stop-off for a truly flawless dress watch. A JLC is never a bad purchase.

[@lettuce1305]

@@benstacey5508 they are in different price categories apart from the higher end JLC.

[@benstacey5508]

Larry - I totally understand and recognise this, but I’m just saying that a JLC is never a bad purchase and that you almost certainly can’t go wrong with one. They’re truly excellent watches and the brand is respected throughout the watch community, as you will know. They’re in totally different price categories, but JLC watches are so good (especially for the price) that they’re subjectively comparable

[@lettuce1305]

@@benstacey5508 yup of course, been a JLC fan since 2005, the master compressor lineup is what made me a fan of the brand even though jlc is known more for dressier pieces.

[@yaaxarr8977]

Ben Stacey I totally agree. My next purchase will be a JLC (saving money for that). My case I don’t see Hublot or Richard Mille as top luxurious brands but A. Lange &S or F. P. Journe are also in my top of the top.

Hell yeah, alarm watches that vibrate especially mechanical ones are not as abundant as other complications. Even though in my opinion are the most useful.

[@rgeorgek42]

Heh, keeping it under the radar alright. No mention of the partnership with Aston Martin with the AMVOX models.

[@lettuce1305]

Yeah unfortunately the really cool Amvox and Master Compressor lines have been discontinued.

[@lettuce1305]

Even the Navy Seals series didn't have any indication of the partnership on the dial and case, the logo is only on the caseback.

I just ordered mine today. There are only 250 for the world but because of my special relationship with the boutique in Beverly Hills and my recent recent visit to the factory I am in. Can't believe it, and can't wait. I have last year's limited edition blue dial Polaris Date. It is one of my favorite watches. JJL products are really a good value compared to other manufacturers.

I just have to remind you that Vulcain infact invented the mechanical alarm that actually worked in 1947 and JLC copyed it. The Vulcain Cricket presidents watch

[@DanyboyS7]

you sir you are a man of knowledge...

[@BT-ds3hi]

@ Tor Ebelthoft, yes your are absolutely correct Vulcain make the world 1st mass produced manual winding alarm watch , whereas JLC make the world 1st automatic winding mass produced alarm watch in 1956

[@lettuce1305]

Yes you are correct however JLC also made the first diving alarm watch. And ever since the early 2000s JLC (Master Compressor Memovox) has made alarm watches that ring like a school bell which sounds a lot nicer than other alarm watches including the Vulcain cricket that sound like a buzzer.

[@robertreynolds9228]

Ok watch finder! Serious question! Can you get your hands on the ALS war horse model. Back when i saw it. It was the most complicated wrist watch made. 500.000dollars up front and then you waited. Wempe in new york were taking orders i believe.

I thought the trinity was based on the contribution to watchmaking. Still, if you were to allow FPQ, then you would need to allow Phillipe Dufour etc.

[@LanguagesWithAndrew]

And perhaps AP doesn't belong there and hasn't for some time now. The top 4 in my opinion are: Patek, Vacheron, A. Lange & Sohne, and JLC. I will admit a problem here, though: JLC's finishing (movement-side in particular) does not match up with that of the other 3, it just doesn't, and so I always find myself wanting to put JLC up there with Patek and Lange but I just can't, they don't really belong there.

[@lettuce1305]

@@LanguagesWithAndrew yup that's right, the reason JLC is not up there with the 'Holy Trinity' is because of the level of finish and prices. JLC entry level pieces are attainable compared to the other 3 and the level of finish of entry level JLCs are not comparable to the 3. Before ppl accuse me of being a JLC hater, I am a fan of the brand since 2005.

[@DuxEtRex]

I disagree. Just not on the same marketing level.

[@lettuce1305]

They actually did have a lineup of sporty watches. Some of the models were actually targeted to compete with AP. Look up the Master Compressor line which were in production from the early 2000s until around 2015. Those were the time JLC made rugged, masculine and very sporty watches. Some disliked it but I personally am a big fan of the lineup since I discovered the brand back in 2005.
