Discover the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Memovox Burgundy, a limited-edition standout from Watches and Wonders 2023. Explore collector reactions to this exclusive timepiece.

In a Watches and Wonders dominated by new Reverso models, WatchProSite contributor amanico unearthed a hidden gem: the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Memovox Burgundy. His original post captures the excitement of discovering this limited-edition piece, highlighting its stunning dial and the immediate rush to secure one. This article delves into why this particular Memovox resonated so strongly with collectors, exploring its unique appeal and the community's reaction.

While everybody stayed focused on the new Reversos, there was one watch which caught all my attention, the 2023 Master Memovox Burgundy. No date, great dial... Wow! It is the winner of the show, for me.

The bad news? It is a limited edition of 100 pieces, for the Hong Kong Boutique only. And the other bad news is that the retail is 18, 000 USD, VAT NOT included.

No need to tell you that I already put my order, at W and W !

Hurry up, my friends, if you want one. They showed it to a few people, for the moment, but everybody who saw it jumped on it.

Best,

Nicolas

Key Points from the Discussion

The chapter ring's reflection exhibits a captivating bluish hue, adding an unexpected visual dimension to the dial.
Another collector also placed an order for the Master Memovox Burgundy, confirming its strong appeal despite not being allowed to photograph it at the event.
The burgundy dial is exceptionally eye-catching, justifying the 'fight or flight' decision to secure one of the limited pieces.
A key question arose regarding the materials of the case and dial, given the 18,000 USD price point, suggesting an expectation of precious metals or special dial treatments.
The Master Memovox Burgundy is described as a 'hearts choice,' with its colors and materials being significant draws, urging quick action due to its limited availability.
One member inquired if Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced any new desk clocks, expressing a long-standing interest in this specific category.

It's pretty for sure

What are the case and dial made of, considering the price one may expect either some precious metal or something special for the dial.

Steel for the case, lacquer for the dial.

How can you order it if it is only for the HK boutique??

Because I met the HK Boutique manager at the JLC Booth. But you can drop them an email, too.

Truly cool version!

I do love burgundy, and this is honestly somehow cooler than the Reverso Tribute in burgundy........
