Introduced in the late 1960s and prominently featuring the high‑frequency Calibre 916, the Memovox reference E 875 marked a high‑point in JLC’s mechanical alarm innovation—a culmination of precision and practicality. Encased in robust yet elegant 37mm stainless steel, this model is distinguished by its dual-crown design and clean, symmetrical lines—a quiet assertion of technical mastery for the era. This rare black-dial variant is characterised by its striking central disc—often called the “roundel” version—set against a white outer ring for clean contrast and visual balance. The logo repositioned to the 9 o’clock position—rather than the more common 12 o’clock—reflects a thoughtful evolution in design emphasizing symmetry. Further accompanied by its Extract from the Archives confirming the production of the present timepiece in 1971, this prestine examples of Memovox reference E 875 represents one of Jaeger-LeCoultre’s most compelling statements of 1970s innovation. The timepiece is further fitted on a Gay Freres for Jaeger Le Coultre bracelet.
