Almost two years ago, I showed you this shot...
Finally a pair of hands I could live with...




I was wrong, they were too thin, not matching the watch itself.
At that point I already had the watch with me for five years...
Almost two years after that, I had another pair of hands installed.

Now I am able to show you the Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox E 11005 on the Wooden Beam!

They are still not perfect, but closer to the original hands...





I still haven't given up on this one, I have another pair of hands incoming which I hope to be the correct pair.
My watchmaker will not be happy.... But hopefully I will finally be able to show you this one on my wrist!

PS. To set a pair of hands on a Memovox with date really is testing your patience... Time, Alarm, Date... It all have to be in sync!

but if anyone can do it, it will be you. Great Memovox! CC
