Lot Essay

This endangered species strap is shown for display purposes only and is not for sale. The watch will be supplied with a calf leather strap.

The present timepiece is distinguished by its original overall condition. Its appeal is furthermore enhanced by the presence of original certificate of guarantee and presentation box - all rarities by themselves.

In 1950, Jaeger-LeCoultre released the Memovox, or the "voice of memory", name derived from the Latin words "memories", memory, and "vox", voice. In 1956, a Memovox featuring the Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre 815 became the first self-winding alarm watch in history.
