Interesting, but there is a but
I don't want to be the one bringing the bad news here, but just in case you might have had doubts when buying it, or if you have been mis-sold a WT by the seller, you should be warned that this watch has a non-original / repainted dial, which was originally silver, and in no way was à World-Time. (the hands are also not of the correct shape for this ref)
If you knew it when buying, then of course it is fine, but I thought we had to let you know
Memovox roll call
Since I saw another roll call, I thought about calling for a Memovox one Best regards to all, Alexandros...
famous
you know Sir, this is one of the famous watches. one of my preferred. (with the polaris). nice taste Sir.
I just awfully realized that....
I had no Modern Memovoxes, except the Diving ones... Damn! I have to find that Black Memo Cal 914 I am hunting for years, now! Superb, Alexandros. Really. Nicolas
I would have never thought that this is possible
Hi Nicolas, Thank you very much for your message. I was counting on you for a few nice vintage ones. :) I will try to post a picture of my hand wound Memovox which dates back to the 50's or 60's. I do not remember to be honest the exact year. It is fascin...
Aaah, in this case, if we can play outside the modern and non diving!
Here we go! - E 851: - 3161 Parking: - E 855, black, and white: - E 872: - E 877: Well, for once, I will not post the Memovox Diving ( I have 6 of them ), as you know them by heart. ;) Best, Nicolas ...
I knew it :)
These are some seriously beautiful watches...! Thanks for sharing with us, Nicolas. Amazing collection, you have there. Have a great evening and thanks again, Alexandros
I would like to play with you....
....but I could only find this one picture in my hard drive : ...
Add five ...
... and you have got two complete decks or cards. You win! (As nobody would have expected different :-) ) Best, Martin
Stunning line up, Nicolas! :)
But are you sure this is a good idee?! Remember last time we played this game...? ;) Best, my friend Blomman
So, I will try to play it under the radar...
Unless we are speaking of Vintage Diving Memos, but even at this game, you're pretty good! ;) Best, Nicolas
A pair and four Aces?
Sure you are not cheating ;-) Wonderful samples you have, Nicolas! With your white 855 being the one that led me onto the dangerously steep Memovox slope :-) Best, Martin
Master Memovox :)
Alexandros, it is a pleasure to this one here - not many around in the forum... Best Blomman
OK, I will play a few cards...
Master Memovox (Cal 914). Master Reveil. Master International. Best Blomman ...
Aaaargh, the first one!!! Damn black beauty!
One day, it will be mine... I HAVE to get it! Best, Nicolas
you know my problem with this one. Like if there was some kind of
Sortilege on me, as each time i tought I could grab one, it escpaed from me. Now, I wonder who put this sortilege on me... If I ever dsicover the guilty guy.... Hmmmmm.... Best, Vlad. ...
OMG .. What a Display .. Humble me ..
.. thus, I can only tap my hat to you ! - standing by the card table and watch the Grand Masters play ! In silent but friendly awe, humbly yours & best, hs PS: - well, at least for three of these four 855's, I can share the joy, mostly thanks to two good ...
Hey KoC! :)
Thank you for your always so kind words, my friend! Please join in and show us your beautiful ladies - I know you have a lot of them! :) Best Blomman
Honestly? I don't know...
Like the E 855 - more than allowed in Poker...! Best Blomman ...
The 3150 is one of my regrets. I shoulkd have considered a beautiful one
Which was offered tom e, a few years ago... These Tubular Lugs + the fact that it is the first Memo make it a very inteesting model, to consider in any serious Memo collection. Best, Nicolas
This time I can play
as I have two Aces in my small deck :-) Plain Memovox I: Plain Memovox II : Have a great day! Martin ...
Snake eyes! ;)
Beautiful pair, Martin! :) A great classic pair - one vintage, one modern... Perfect combo! Best Blomman
One & only Memovox
Hi Here's mine & I'm afraid that it'll torment Nicholas again No black dial! Cheers JML ...
That is one of the few Lecoultre Memo that I am considering
adding in my collection, because of the shpae of the numbers. I am totally crazy about that dial! Best, Nicolas
I just picked this one up today!
I had meant to post my TT Polaris and TT Deep Sea but hadn't yet. That's ok though because I ended up buying a Memovox earlier today. So far only one bad picture of it. I'll have to shoot more tomorrow. ...

This is the problem with impulse buys
I saw it at a watch show and I hadn't done my homework. It just appealed to me so I bought it. Now I have to decide (quickly) if I'm going to contact the seller or just keep it. Even if it isn't correct I have to admit that I like it.
When it comes to Memovox WTs, doing your homework is a pretty hard thing.
Most of thse I saw for sale are not authentic, my friend. Do not feel too guilty, here. Best, Nicolas
what to do with it now
I think you certainly should contact the seller if you believe that he consciously tried to pass it as authentic / all original WT and if you challenged it on this aspect and he lied (and of course if he sold the watch with a premium because of the WT fea...
Room for one more?
Sadly this old friend spends most of his time locked up, he deserves a pass for good behaviour soon. This is #0006 looking for #0001 if he is around? Reveil ...

I have to stay cool, I have to stay cool, I have to srtay cool..... ;) Merci, l'ami. Nicolas.
