Love this watch
I think JLC scares many from buying new because of resale... but also this watch, while stunning and iconic, is a bit thick around the middle... Additionally, the alarm function, while coool, is not a 'sexy ability' like a Diver or Chrono. But I do love it.
It should be popular, it is a great reference
But the price becomes quite hefty vs. past iterations
True. Especially the Timer ( Blue ).
But, still, a great watch. And when you see how much a Nautilus or the recent Calatrava in steel is priced, it is a relative bargain. ...

IMHO, the date window position is most aesthetically displeasing, abutting the alarm disc, and should be pushed out to the lume dot so as to be congruent with all the hour markers --

the saddest truth: JLC has never listened to our input on this their most visible/arguably most important fan base source, either in making a special purist edition or in a regular production model...
Yet were Hodinkee to approach them with my/our ideas, I guarantee JLC would jump to make a limited Hodinkee edition of say 200 pieces, avec ou sans date, even your black dial, and Hodinkee would take credit for the subtle yet perfected changes AND also ma...
Always adored the Memovox
As Nicolas says, a true JLC. Making it 38 or 39mm eventually would bring me back to the fold. That’s my only complaint with it right now. No date would be even better, but one cant dream too wildly with certain things😊
My God that is gorgeous.............
for me the Memovox is one of the two iconic Jaeger LeCoultre references
The imbalance of the date window means it's a "no" for me personally :-(
I love pretty much everything else about it. I find the alarm complication more practical than a diver or a chronograph, and far more interesting and unusual. Even more so with the display case back. I love the straps on the latest Masters too. The dial s...
