As all my radium watches... This white E 855 is among my favourites. The radium indexes and hands just gives it the necessary warmth to make of this watch an exceptional watch. Best, Nicolas
…only one watch. Then we would probably wear the same on or wrists! Did I mention that I saw one in the wild?! Well, at the Geneva airport – but still! Best Blomman
love to see "black' attraction, and also it is the same year as my birth year, can't escape from this beauty, another one is in my shopping list stefan
Great watch ,definitely. You have the honor to be the only one here to get it. But this monopole won't last too much, for sure! Best, Nicolas This message has been edited by amanico on 2010-07-17 06:18:28
Yes, that version is very tempting! My AD was kind and brought both SS and RG for me to choose from. Both with my special number! My mind was racing to get both but… Luckily I could restrain myself, as you know I got something else instead…! Have you deci...
Blomman, et al - I have heard issues that the brake on the hammer will unequivocally "go" within a couple of months and the watch will clang around when your wrist moves. Any longer term reports from you on this? Or have you heard this from others? Thanks...
I had seen it posted in another forum that for about 30 minutes following an alarm indicator that the hammer would subtly strike the chime as you moved around. Apparently on the most current model they installed a brake to prevent this. But I heard that t...
Part #7 Final End Game, Pure Black! With risk to be banned from this forum (Nicolas, please let me stay! ) Here is my last and latest Memovox; The Vintage Polaris 65; And to visualize what I mean when I say “theme Pure Black”; To ALL Memovox lovers – a bi...
What a collection you have, my friend! I'm far behind you! I decided to keep on hunting some othrers, to complete the thema, and this roll call is another motivation to do so. But you know that some of them are my ghosts... Best, and thanks for all what y...
That means a lot coming form you, my friend! But I have difficulty to see that you are behind. Polaris 68, Polaris II, Snowdrop, Parking, Black E 855… Just to mention a few Memos… Yes, I know you have some ghost watches that haunt you, we all ...
Blomman, many thanks for this great initiative, it offers us a great opportunity to see all these beautiful vintage, old, new, classic, modern, and rare Memovoxs at one time. really enjoyed to share my little collection with other JLC fans here. hope afte...
But here's Incurison #10/62 in all its incarnations: And, of course, an "action" shot: To say that I love it is an understatement of gross proportions. As a diver watch aficionado and fan of JLC (and, of course, of the marque's trademark complications), t...
Had a small GTG the other evening, among us was my friend that now wears my previous Reveil RG (the one that got away...). So I could not resist taking some photos to share in this Memo Roll Call…! It wasn’t a Purists GTG, but from the look of my friend’s...
Great trade – the Pola is really special! Of course, it’s always painful to part from a watch. But it’s not to late, there are always room for more that one Memo in the collection, right?! Best Blomman
I've seen this model before but don't know the case reference. If you've ever had it open, it will be stamped inside the back of the case. Any idea what the ref is? Cal 815 bumper auto? Regards, Greg
Very nice LeCoultre – haven’t see that one before! Horizontal index and the dial looks almost shaped like a pie-pan. Or maybe it’s because of the angle and light in the photo. Please tell us more! Best Blomman
Sorry I don't know what a pie pan looks like. I'm from India. Anyways I'll try and take better pics for fellow Experts to comment about it. All I know is that it was a LOVE at first sight... Thanks for viewing
The whole watch looks to be in great condition, congrats! Never noticed that kind of hour hand before, very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Best Blomman
Is movement Cal 911? Same as in some pocket alarms from that time. An US version, goldplated or solid? It looks to be in really good condition! Congrats, Stefan! Wear it in good health! Best Blomman
yes, the movement is Cal.911 which used in more pocket alarms during that period. as Nico said in other posts, Memovox with Cal.911 is not very commonly found. that's why i have aimed to hunt one for my collection. to my knowledge, most of the time, i fou...
I joined the Memovox club a bit late, but better late than never! A E855, bought with invaluable advice from Nicolas & Stefan, thanks to them both! I love it already... ...
