FS: JLC Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox Master Control Reveil
I’m doing a little collection purge and I’m sure I’ll regret this decision since it took me so long to find this watch. Needless to say, these are rarely seen on the secondary market as there were less than 500 watches made in the SS/silver dial combination. From 1998-1999, JLC made only a few of these “reveil” alarm watches. To me, this is poor man’s minute repeater. The sound of the alarm’s chime clarity is so different than the typical “buzz” that is associated with alarm watches. And this is a very rare dial, as the words Memovox and Reveil appear on the dial. Usually Reveil is reserved for automatics.
The styling is classic JLC – manual wind, clean, conservative, easy to read with it’s double set of minute markers, a joy to wind and to own. It is a tritium dial and the hour markers are showing a nice golden patina. The sweep seconds hand is beautifully blued. The beads of rice bracelet is soft and JLCs construction is top-notch and the double deployant opens and closes easily. Neither the watch nor the bracelet have been polished and don’t need to be! There are no mechanical or timekeeping issues.
There is no box, papers or extra links. The bracelet will fit up to 7” wrist. Condition 94%.
My price $4250 including transaction fees and insured overnight shipping in CONUSA.
