Please help! Jaeger-LeCoultre!
Hi,
I have long been looking for a vintage watch to my boyfriend, he is
very fond of Jaeger le Coultrer. I have looked several times on
different clocks,
but because I am pretty ignorant so it is difficult to say what I
should provide for an old clock. It seems to range from a few hundred
dollars to over 5000 dollars. I have had contact with several private
vendors, but did not come to shoot.
One of clocks (the silver), which is interesting, the seller whants 900
pounds, is it reasonable? It will apparently be on the special design.
Can you help me to appreciate the value, model and year? And feel free to tell if you have something similar in your range?
Sincerely
LiS

I would go for the Memovox ...
This is a cult watch, displaying a friendly complication. Check that the movement is working flawessly, nonetheless. Best, and welcome here! Nicolas
Hello
I dont know, i dont have the watches. Isnt it the numbers on the back at the pictures??
Ditto Amanico's choice... the Memovox would be my choice
The stainless Memovox is not only a collector favorite, it also looks to be in better condition. The niche thing about stainless is that it tends to stay in better condition (resists scuffs & scratches, unlike soft gold) and also goes equally well with ca...
Hi Greg
Hello Greg thanks for your answer! So it's really a Memovox? Do you know perhaps a little more about the bells, value, age? I've been looking for to even compare, but it does not look exactly like the others I can find. Best regards Lis

This is an E 855, so called Ebony indexes. It was produced in the late 60ies. If you have a look at the " Concord " Ad, you will see it along with the Polaris and the E 861. As for value, sorry we can't discuss that kind of matter here, but I will just sa...
Concord
ok sorry=)) I hope to you can put up with my weird stupid questions. Many thanks for your patience Nicolas! Regards Lis
Hi Nicolas
It sounds so interesting. It was a while ago that I found the pictures, I'll try to find the seller=) Hope I can find him! You mean the silver which is an E 855 Ebony index? Do you know anything about it in yellow, is it made of gold? Can you possibly see...
Yes, Lis.
The SS Memo is the one I was speaking about. Yes, it has been made in gold. Same year of production than the SS version ( end 60ies ). The concord advertisement is not a website, it is just an advertisement from 1969. Best, Nicolas
Hi again!
Of course with my timing, so I can not find the seller to the watches, aaarghh! After having spent so much time to obtain all information. Again thanks. Where can I find similar Memovoxer pieces? Sincerely, Lis
Actually not a 855, a different beast.
To me it looks like an E 11 013 , definitively not an E855 (one-piece case, front-loaded, small straight lugs) The 11013 is slightly less desirable (or at least less sought after) than the classic 855 since it is smaller, and lacking some of the great cha...
And even the screw in case back is lacking...
I should have seen that! I've been stuck tob the dial. My bad. Thanks for the correction. Best, Nicolas
Hi Clavi
Clavia Hello! You are both brilliant, (Nicolas and you)) amazing that you can get the most out of just a few pictures! Can I ask you the same thing about the one in gold? If you possibly know the age and model? Best Regards Lis
