superb cool pair...
Nico, congrats on your new catch, this Memovox E851 should be very rare, especially in such excellent condition. i love the creamy patina dial, it is really a killer to me. the hands' edges surrounding with blue match very with those blue triangle in the dial.
after seeing yours, i think i need to take a break for my AMVOX for tomorrow. ah... which Memo to be wore for tomorrow? yes i know, will be wearing Memo Parking for sure!
anyway, thanks so much for sharing such superb cool pair of JLC vintages!

A picturial hommage to an early Memovox: E 851.
A collector's life can be magic... I wasn't ready to add another Memovox in my collection, as I still have a too long wish list, but there are days which bring their lot of surprise. This Memovox is a real surprise. While lunching with a friend of mine, I...
Striking similarity with your GO!
Hi Nicolas, your productivity is remarkable, having just returned from your holidays seems to have fully recharged your batteries ! It occured to me that both your vintage Memovox and the Senator Navigator share the same hand design (blued, sword shape, l...
Yes, there are some common points, anaesdoc.
The size and the almost hidden complication of the Memovox being the 2 most important differences between these 2 watches. As for the size, 34 mm is not that small when the watch is well designed, which is visible once on the wrist. Another common point b...
Beautiful patina on both! :)
Great to see them side by side! A beautiful pair – definitely sisters! Love the mocha patina together with the blued hands. Great to have you back, my friend! Have been missing the torture… Best Blomman
Torquemada is back, my friend,
So be prepared to suffer a lot! The watch I took in picture with the Memo E 851 is a watch which is dear, very dear to me... It looks like a banal nice watch ( if Beauty is banal, which is another interrogation... ), but it has a specific History which ma...
If this is “ Suffer ” …
Then I like to suffer! “ Thank you Sir, may I have another one ”… Love the hands on those – especially with the blued frame. Best, my friend Blomman
So, count me in...
I have some very cruel shots to share... Especially about one watch you recently got, so you're immunised on this one, but other may make you suffer in a delicious way. Best, Nicolas

Well, I never saw E 851 for sale, before this one...
Was it because there wasn't for sale, or because I did not pay attention to it before? Couldn't say. But one thing is sure, I'm very happy to have been able to catch this one. It was an instantaneous love... As for the other, the " Non Memo ", it is anoth...
Great find!
I think it looks great on your wrist! I'm also very curious to see your unrevealed vintage JLC Thanks for sharing this and for the pictures! Best, T
Aaah, the unrevealed will be revealed on due time, Thomas.
It is just a matterv of weeks before I post something on it. Let's just say that it was a watch I hunted for a long time, that I heard about it but never saw it, a bit like the Loch Ness Monster... Stay tuned! Best, Nicolas
Indeed an elegant pair...
Thanks for the pics and the details on the watch. Wear it in health. Greetings
excellent Nicolas! congrats
not a common or typical Memovox, but looks awsome, real classic
The good question, Milan, is
To know if there is a typical Memo, as there were so many different Memos! Thanks, my friend. Nicolas
Beautiful watch... one of my all-time favorites!
Thanks for the pictures and write-up on this lovely model. I've always loved those hands paired with that classic case shape. Regards, Greg
Agreed, Greg.
These Losange Hands + the simple shape of the case + the arab index numbers=a very lovely Memo. Timeless, in a certain way. Add the creamy patina of the dial and you will understand my " love at first sight " for this watch. Best, my friend. Nicolas
There is alot to catch up with ...
... at my next visit to Paris ... You're totally crazy Nicolas .... and that's a compliment ! Ze Bim
Thanks for the compliment, Filip!
So, catch you soon, and don't forget your camera! Best, Nicolas
What a beautiful watch!
Fantastic dial and hands. Charming combination. Love it. Thanks for sharing. Un abrazo. Vte
Gracias, Amigo.
But, if I remember well, you had the opportunity to see it in the flesh, didn't you? Un fuerte abrazo, Amigo! Nicolas
Could be.
Hi Nico. Could be, but if I did, I don't remember, and that wonderful piece it's something not easy to forget. Nevermind. Cuidate. Vte
Thank you for this article Nicolas, I have always had a weakness
for alarm watches. What a classic Memovox. Thanks for the great pictures too. Best, Tim
Not really the mother of All Memos, but close, Tim.
The mother of all Memos came with tubular lugs...and was even smaller than the E 851, this last one announcing, in a certain way, the E 853... Which announced the E 855. Wedll, it is not only very nice, it is also a link in the Memo History, and not an of...
Wonderful Nicolas!...
Now you know exactly which two piece to put in my Christmas stocking! Thank you for sharing, my friend. Best, -- Richard.
My pleasure, Richard...
Will have a discussion with Santa for you... Best, my friend. Nicolas.
