Jaeger Lecoultre Memovox Boutique Edition from 2016: A good base for an evolution?
The Jaeger Lecoultre Memovox Boutique Edition from 2016 and its very cool blue dial: Imagine you are in charge of the development... What would you do? I would: - First choose a different case, less outdated, more modern and elegant. Master Ultra Thin 40 ...
