Here is a LeCoultre Memovox Alarm, reference 2052-1, dating from around 1950.
Its 32 mm 10k gold-filled case features beautifully shaped lugs, adding elegance and character to the overall design. The silver dial has developed a natural patina over time, giving it a warm and unique tone.
The display is both classic and technical: applied indexes with Arabic numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 are paired with fine central hands. The alarm function, a signature of the Memovox line, is indicated by a central rotating disc with a triangle marker, adjustable via the crown at 2 o’clock, while the crown at 4 o’clock is used to set the time.
It is powered by the manual-winding LeCoultre K814 movement, with 17 jewels, beating at 18,000 A/h and offering approximately 54 hours of power reserve.
The watch is fitted with a brown leather strap and its gold-plated buckle.
It comes with our 6-month warranty on the movement.
