With the Memovox, Jaeger-LeCoultre created a wristwatch with an alarm function as early as 1950 - one that became a classic and was continuously enhanced with new complications over the decades.
Alongside the iconic Reverso, the Memovox is likely the most popular model from the Jaeger-LeCoultre manufacture.
The present version is equipped with a "Bumber" automatic movement, Caliber 825, and features a 37 mm case along with a beautifully patinated dial with applied indexes.
