Jaeger-LeCoultre
Memovox
for Alfred Dunhill
Automatic
caliber 825
reference E855

This rare Memovox model was made by Jaeger-LeCoultre for the British luxury goods company Alfred Dunhil. The dial of these models was only printed with the name "Dunhill" (instead of Jaeger-LeCoultre) and the pendulum rotor was engraved accordingly with "Dunhill". This Memovox men's wristwatch in stainless steel execution has an intense blue dial. A color that always goes great with steel and is a color classic in this combination, is this strong, beautiful blue. Noteworthy are the contrasting white Arabic numerals combined with white Breguet hands with tritium coating. The Memovox wrist alarm is set by means of the mobile disk in the center of the dial. Hence, more accurate setting and better legibility of dial. The classic Memovox steel case with profiled lugs has a diameter of 37mm. The screwed case cover has a line grinding and bears corresponding case number. In this model the caliber 825 with date indications is working, manufactured from 1959. This caliber is a 14 ligne automatic movement with 17 jewels. It works with 18,000 beats per hour and is equipped by a Kif shock protection. The fine decorated movement is rhodium-plated, has Glucydur balance and a flat balance spring.
