Lot Essay

With Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox Tribute to Polaris booklet, spare crystal, vintage-style green presentation box and outer packaging.

According to the Archives of Jaeger-LeCoultre, the present watch was manufactured in 2008. It is number 595 of a limited edition of 768 examples of this reference cased in stainless steel.

The "Memovox Tribute to Polaris" model, launched in 2008, commemorates the celebrated 1960 Memovox Polaris, a diver's wristwatch incorporating an innovative alarm mechanism.

The re-edition is equipped with an alarm striking onto a suspended gong, saluting one of the greatest 20th century sports watches, the Memovox Polaris. Faithful to the aesthetics of its illustrious predecessor, it shares the same distinctive design, energetic lines and spirit of performance.
