Descrizione del modello

In the early 1950s, Jaeger-LeCoultre unveiled the Memovox, a name derived from the Latin words "Memor" and "Vox," symbolizing "the voice of memory."

The evolution of Memovox reached a pinnacle with the creation of the Calibre 825. This movement, an advancement of the cal. 815, included a date feature and showcased exceptional craftsmanship. The cal. 825 is renowned for its distinctive "bumper" winding system and the hammer-based alarm mechanism, which offers a tangible sensation on the wrist, adding character to the watch.

Apart from these technical innovations, a standout feature of this specific watch is its rare world time dial. Despite its seemingly outdated utility, the allure of a mechanical alarm wristwatch remains unparalleled, symbolizing a blend of historical significance and mechanical ingenuity.
