Although inspired by the first Memovox watches in the 1950s, the new Master Control Memovox in 40mm steel case has a contemporary minimalist look-simple, handsome, and with a date display on silver sunray dial The Master Control Memovox Timer switches things up with the ability to set a timer based on the number of hours before the alarm rings This nifty addition to the automatic Jaeger-LeCoultre Caliber 956 is paired with the traditional alarm function.
