Another Memovox back from the watchmaker – the Jaeger-LeCoultre E 875 Blue dial

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : July 2nd, 2016-16:05
Friends, Another watch that I received back from the watchmaker is the Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox E 875 Blue dial. Back to its full glory! Lovely blue dial, classic case shape. And the back tells the full story: Memovox Speed Beat HF 28800, Waterresistant 2...  

40+ years....

The 20 meters water resistance! We all know 30 meters, which I believed to be the standard water resistance, but 20 meters, I never saw. Very nice Memovox, indeed. Enjoy it, my friend. Nicolas

I just came back from my beloved watchmaker / teacher and he showed me a very old Panerai. Sorry I could not take pictures :-( It is in a very bad condition (need to make a new winder rod...) and it needs a lot of work to become as it was several decades ... 

Oh! I can!
