Jaeger Recital 130 Alarm Clock

Through the years I have shown my mother various watches and clocks. Quite many, only within Jaeger-LeCoultre it must been over hundred. As my mother never were into watches she always said things like “hm”, “aha”, “ok”… But one day I show this Jaeger alarm clock shaped as a candle holder… The Jaege

Through the years I have shown my mother various watches and clocks.

Quite many, only within Jaeger-LeCoultre it must been over hundred.

As my mother never were into watches she always said things like “hm”, “aha”, “ok”…

But one day I show this Jaeger alarm clock shaped as a candle holder…

The Jaeger Recital 130:

8 days movement, 24h alarm (not 12h as normal alarm clocks) and candle holder.

The backside is self-explanatory:

Top winder – clockwise you wind the alarm, anti-clockwise you wind the movement.

To the left – alarm on/off.

Centre – set time.

Right – set alarm.

The small screw at the bottom right is for adjusting the movement.

Here shown in the 1967 catalogue:

Love at first sight! So of course, I got her one to have in my parents living room.
