In 1958, the Grande Maison celebrated its 125th anniversary by launching three models that highlighted its expertise and the innovative character of its creations. Among them was a particularly striking interpretations of the legendary Memovox : the Memovox Parking. With a dial for which a patent was filed and that is highly recognisable thanks to its blue and white pictogramme, the Memovox Parking allows to set the alarm for a specific duration in order to avoid any ticket.
Equipped with the manual-winding Jaeger-LeCoultre Calibre 814 with alarm function, the watch is fitted on a new dark brown calfskin leather strap.
HERITAGE
A SECOND MEMORY
Initially part of the Jubilee collection of 1958, the Memovox Parking was launched to mark the 125th anniversary of the Manufacture and celebrate its spirit of invention. Featuring a newly developed and patented alarm disc for its chiming complication, it was advertised as a wristwatch with “built-in parking meter” in order to avoid overtime parking fines. The Memovox Parking acts as a second memory throughout the busiest of days!
