Jaeger-LeCoultre Memovox Mens Alarm Reveil Watch - Solid 14K Gold & Stainless Steel

In vintage times, as lifestyle paces moved faster and faster, top Swiss firms needed a way to enhance the experiences of their now frequently travelling top clients. The renowned engineers at Jaeger-LeCoultre rose to the occasion by creating the company's famed Memovox alarm wristwatch in 1951. This special wristwatch featured a fully mechanical alarm system that its owner could use to better organize and govern his most precious possession - his time.
