A picture of two funky dials: Jaeger Lecoultre Memovox E 873 Gold and Steel.

Same reference, but totally different characters. Credit picture AS and Meertz. 





Both are quite dynamic, to say the least, but the gold looks a tad racing. 

Superb.

White dial is for beach party

Very aptly put!

And in this case it's beach for me - the white and blue is really appealing!

Yes, really appealing. But there is even nicer, the blue and orange dial! [nt]

Wonder why different alarm disks on these two....

I have the same question, and didn't find a factual answer.

 
 By: amanico : July 31st, 2016-11:08
Maybe it is to differenciate the gold and steel versions more?

Best,

Nicolas

I checkt old cataolges and ...

Indeed, they are different on the E 873 but not on any of the other gold versions from that period...
Strange...

Yes, I checked the same docs, as it intrigued me a lot.

 
 By: amanico : July 31st, 2016-14:04
Same way of thinking.  checked all the other gold variations of memovoxes, and this is the only case. An exception, obviously. 

Best, and thanks for the confirmation, Blomman.

What is the "GT" on the alarm disc for? Is it a tribute to a car?

Grande Taille, I think. But I would like to believe that it stands for Gran Turismo. Even if I don't see the link. ;) [nt]

Love that E873 - here's mine

The dial is special but so is the case/shape. Very retro!




Thanks for sharing the dial pictures.

Best,

Claus
