Other time capsules we saw during our GTG: Jaeger Lecoultre Memovox Snowdrop black, and silver blue. Ref E 877.
I know someone here who is seriously falling in love...
Or the Silver blue?
Here you have a one-piece 40 mm " lugless " egg shaped case, typical from the 70's, with a Cal 916 beating inside. Which was a new movement, for JLC, with a conventional rotor instead of the former " bumper ", and beating at 28, 800 vph. The other novelty is that JLC changed the plexy for a sapphire glass.
The Black?

The black is more " powerful ", while the silver blue has a detail I love a lot, some specific luminous dots.
So, Black or Silver Blue?

I just looked at everything I could find to read about snowdrop.
From what I have understood and cross-checked as information, the box, the papers, the buckle and the steel bracelet would be those of the attached photos (crédit internet) :
On the nsa matching bracelet, the central link would be in Delrin (Polyoxymethylene resin from Dupont).
What do you think about ? Matching / Non matching ?

I’m more of a white/gray dial person so I can’t contradict myself;)
Gray for me please!
I love the texture of that dial...
Great shots as usual

I have a prescription that says I should keep away from vintage memovoxes...
But i can already see that this is a great pair of watches. Why would anyone chose one over the other? They're luke twins, they should not be separated :-D
#porn... Undressing, nudity !!!
Work in progress !
And a rare vintage band is on the way (The band which is on the picture, not the watch which is another one) :
