The Blue Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox Timer Packs a Twist under its Hood

-

You cannot complete the conversation without mentioning the Memovox alarm when talking about the leading Swiss watchmaker Jaeger LeCoultre. It is the brand’s most ingenious and longest-running complication. The watchmaker currently upgraded its standard Memovox model. Moreover, it also added a blue-dialled Limited Edition Memovox Timer to the collection. 

And this timepiece comes with an apparent functional twist beneath its hood. What is it? Please keep reading to know about it.

The Latest Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox Timer Limited Edition

Jaeger LeCoultre equips the new Memovox Timer model with one additional alarm feature. Interestingly, this timer will now allow you to set the alarm based on the elapsed time, besides the particular hour of the day. However, wearers can still set the hour alarm through the rotatable ring located in the dial’s centre. 

A luminescent triangle highlights this alarm feature, pointing to a minute/hour track. On the other hand, a red ‘JL’ twin-tipped hand delineates the new timer functionality. It floats over an exquisitely carved relief in the dial’s centre. Thus, users can set the alarm at their desired time more conveniently. 

This means that you can use the luminescent triangle to display the specific time. Alternatively, you can line up the numbered disc with the red hand to indicate the hours, which must elapse before the alarm blows. 

This is undoubtedly a handy and innovative upgrade that Jaeger LeCoultre made to the new limited edition Memovox Timer. You do not have to guess the time when the alarm must go off. 

However, the new Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox Timer houses the brand’s in-house Calibre 956 movement. This movement comes with the watchmaker’s stringent 1000-hour certification for chronometric durability. 

The Key Features of the JLC Master Control Memovox Timer Limited Edition

  • Model Name: Jaeger LeCoultre Master Control Memovox Timer Limted Edition
  • Case Diameter: 40mm
  • Case Material: Stainless Steel, sapphire case back
  • Movement: In-house movement, Calibre 956
  • Functionality: Alarm, timer and date indicator
  • Power Reserve: 45 hours
  • Crystal: Sapphire
  • Bracelet: Novonappa calfskin.

The Key Updates on the New Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox

Jaeger LeCoultre upgraded the new Memovox with a transparent sapphire crystal case back. It is the first time you can find this feature as all the previous models featured a solid stainless steel case back. Thus, the new Memovox will offer a clear view of Calibre 956. 

However, we still do not know whether Jaeger LeCoultre has also changed the signature ringtone of the Memovox. 

Jaeger LeCoultre introduced the Memovox in 1956, and the timepiece always sported a predictable means of operation. Rotate the centre disc to your desired hour to set the alarm. And if you want to wind, you have to use the second crown placed at the 2 o’clock side. 

Interestingly, unlike many alarm timepieces, the Memovox alarm sounds like the classic firehouse or school bell. However, the new Master Control Memovox Timer comes with the same operating principles.
