Jaeger-LeCoultre is introducing two new Memovox models, one of which is the Master Control Memovox. The Memovox collection’s history dates back to the 1940s. As the post-war economy improved, the brand developed the Memovox and its mechanical alarm in the spirit of the innovative, late-40s Zeitgeist. The new watch, like its sibling, is housed in the new Master Control 40 mm stainless-steel case.
The Master Control Memovox displays the time with the help of two dauphine hands on a silvery sunray dial, while a blue seconds hand provides a splash of colour. Furthermore, a date window lies at 3 o’clock. Additionally, an arrow on the disc in the centre points to the hour at which the alarm will sound.
The in-house Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 956 drives the Master Control Memovox. The movement is a self-winding mechanism, which offers a 45-hour power reserve. The revised movement generates the alarm by means of the hammer striking the side of the case. The sound is supposed to evoke the sound of a school bell. Unlike its predecessors, the Memovox’s mechanism can be viewed through the sapphire crystal caseback.
Finally, the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Memovox is water-resistant to 50 m and is worn on a brown nappa leather strap. The price for this model is 11,900 euros.
Jaeger-LeCoultre is introducing two new Memovox models to its Master Control collection, one of which is the Master Control Memovox Timer (The other one is the Master Control Memovox). Although contemporary in style, the watch takes its inspiration from the 1950s Memovox models. Additionally, the timepiece's movement incorporates not only an alarm-setting mechanism, but also…
