It is reported that Jaeger-LeCoultre is set to release a new retro version of the original Memovox which will definitely steal the show of SIHH 2010.
For those who are strange with the Memovox: Memovox first made its debut in 1950 (with a Jaeger-LeCoultre Caliber 489) and the model was maintained in production until 1968
. It has the distinct and privileged honor of being the first wristwatch with an automatic movement with alarm function (enabled by the Jaeger-LeCoultre Caliber 815), achieved in 1956 - (
vintage jaeger lecoultre). Since 1968, the production of the Memovox has been, well, dormant-but make no mistake its possession is today highly prized - (

Respecting the distinct and privileged honor of the original Memovox, Jaeger LeCoultre has created the brand new Master Memovox that will make its debut at the umcoming SIHH 2010.
