JAEGER-LECOULTRE MEMOVOX TUXEDO REF. 875.42

1970 | Stainless steel | Automatic | 37.0mm

Sale price€5.400,00

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox Ref. 875.42, often known as the "Speedbeat," represents the pinnacle of 1970s funky-chic design and mechanical innovation. This reference marked a significant evolution for the Memovox line, housing the legendary Caliber 916, the first automatic alarm movement with a 360-degree rotor and a high frequency of 28,800 vibrations per hour (hence the "Speedbeat" nickname) for greater precision.

The watch features a substantial 37 mm case that sits boldly on the wrist. Its standout feature is the two-tone dial giving it that sharp "Tuxedo" aesthetic. With its dual crowns and distinct mechanical alarm buzz, this is a functional, stylish, and highly collectible piece of JLC history.

Jaeger-LeCoultre

Established in 1833 by Antoine LeCoultre in the Swiss Vallée de Joux, Jaeger-LeCoultre has been at the forefront of horological innovation. Known as the "watchmaker’s watchmaker," it has developed some of the most intricate and complicated movements in history, including the Reverso in 1931, a timepiece with a reversible case originally designed for polo players. Jaeger-LeCoultre has also introduced groundbreaking innovations like the Master Ultra Thin and Geophysic collections.

The brand is renowned for its exceptional craftsmanship, creating not only technically advanced movements but also dials and cases of unparalleled beauty. Jaeger-LeCoultre continues to be a leader in haute horlogerie, combining technical expertise with artistic vision. The Reverso, in particular, remains one of the most iconic and recognizable designs in watchmaking, embodying the perfect blend of functionality and style.
