These original manual wind memovox watches are becoming hard to find in this unmolested condition. This Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox (just "LeCoultre" for watches made for the US market) is an exemplary piece of originality, function and fine watchmaking. Vintage 1956, most Memovox watches you will find have had restoration work or replacement parts through the years. This particular piece is 100% original. Specifically, the dial, indices and hands are untouched and original. The unsigned crowns are original to the watch. The stainless steel case it unpolished and retains most of it's original factory finish. The Jaeger-LeCoultre Caliber 814 manual wind movement has been well maintained and appears completely original. The crystal of the watch appears original and has small scratches that can buffed out or replaced if you wish; however we wanted to keep the crystal original and the scratches are small enough that they do not distract.
This Memovox has a classic off white dial with silver disc and silver indices. The hands and indices still retain most of it's original luminous applied material as shown in the photos. The dial has not been refinished.
Overall, this Memovox is a beautiful example of well cared for and well preserved fine watchmaking from the 1950's. The Memovox is extremely desirable and ready for your eyes and wrist to enjoy. This watch comes on a new black leather Hadley-Roma strap with silver buckle and measures 34MM without including the crowns. We will also include the original Speidel retro design expanding bracelet that we believe is original to the watch.
