A very well preserved Jaeger Lecoultre 1960s Memovox ref.855 cal K825 in stainless steel , fitted on its original gay freres bracelet. The watch is in unpolished condition and shows minor signs of wear. One of the crown is unsigned. Following the creation of alarm watches by other brands, Jaeger-LeCoultre began producing the Memovox line back in 1950. Equipped with a mechanical alarm, it was advertised as the watch that ‘reminds, notifies, and wakes up.’ Although the alarm may be hard to hear when worn on the wrist, it is still easily enough to notify you at the right time. When it comes to waking you up, there is a simple trick to turning up the volume: Placing your Memovox on your bedside table allows the sound to resonate nicely.
Ever since the first Memovox, these watches have come in several configurations using different case materials and dial designs. However, the characteristic dual crown design has always been part of the Memovox. While the traditional crown for the setting and winding the watch movement sits on the lower right side of the case at 4 o’clock, the crown used to operate the alarm function is located at 2 o’clock.
