Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox “Speedbeat” E875, Cal. 916 We are proud to offer a vintage JLC Memovox in excellent condition. It features a significant high-beat movement and charismatic appearance. The Memovox was the perfect mixture of innovation and style. By the early 1960s, the watch had become a mainstay in JLC’s lineup. It is generally considered the benchmark for wrist alarm complication, offering a lost sound of a lost era. The Memovox came in many executions, and the rare “Speedbeat” variant is amongst the most sought after today. They are technically stunning and supremely wearable on the modern wrist.
Please read the condition report carefully and refer to the high-resolution pictures to help you assess the overall condition of the watch.
