It's from (estimated) between 1996-2003. Part of master memovox with caliber 914
Two versions was released, silver and black dial. Each one produced about only 1000 pcs. I like it because of the 36 mm size memovox which JLC does not make anymore. Even better, black dial memovox is rarer than silver dial.
The bracelet is fantastic
And if I remember correctly, very very few were sold on the bracelet.
That's is handsome watch , 35-37 mm is a good size
I don't understand why current memovox must be 39+ mm
Very nice , looks good on the bracelet & it has the tritium dial
Though I am biased ...
Beautiful capture. TBH i prefer the superluminova, not tritium, if i had choice.
If the tritium dots broken (crumbles), will/can JLC re-apply with lume dots?
Love this watch
Rarely seen in the black dial, even more rarely on the bracelet! Very cool.
So beautiful...
I tried hunting one without success many years ago. Enjoy the beauty.
Question about the lume pips
Is the patina faux? This watch is too new to have tritium lume. If so, it's really unusual.
I think its real. Early batch (1996-1999) has tritium dots. From 2000-2002 they changed to superluminova.
I can attest that mine are real tritium because they do not glow at all because of the age.
