This Jaeger LeCoultre 18k Gold Manual wind Memovox alarm watch is in stunning condition having had a full service and overhaul and new lizard skin strap, the name ‘Memovox’ is composed of the two Latin words ‘memo’ and ‘vox’ which respectively mean ‘remember’ and ‘voice’.

However in 1956, the Cal. 489 was replaced with the Calibre 815, making the Memovox the first automatically wound alarm wristwatch, this is the manual wind version making it the earlier edition.
