We've mentioned the Jaeger Lecoultre Memovox replica Bell & RossVintage 126 V126GBLK-GL Men many, many times in our posts here on the 'Dink.We've always loved Jaeger and we've always loved the concept of the mechanical wrist alarm.It was Jaeger of course who pioneered the idea of an automatic movement with a mechanical alarm via their Cal 815 in 1956.The movement went on to power such classics as the original Polaris and your average, but still totally awesome, Memovox, and of course those that JLC made for a few friends.
As is the trend in watches these days (especially in the Richemont group), Jaeger LeCoultre has just announced they will be reintroducing the Memovox in the replica Bell & RossVintage 126 V126GPER-GL Men year 2010.It will be powered by the Caliber 956 (same as used in new Polaris) and it will be available in stainless steel or rose gold.It will be sized at a "perfect in the eyes of Hodinkee" 40mm.There is no word on pricing yet, but we hope to see it around $5000 for the stainless version, although something tells us it might be slightly higher.
