Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Memovox

About this reference

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Control Memovox reference Q4118420 was introduced in 2020 and remains in current production. This reference updated the long-standing alarm watch line with a 40mm stainless steel case and a sapphire crystal caseback, a departure from previous solid-back designs. It utilizes the caliber 956, a self-winding movement featuring a redesigned peripheral gong that allows for a thinner case profile of 12.39mm while maintaining the signature "school bell" alarm tone. Collectors value this model for its silver sunray dial with a central rotating alarm disc and the inclusion of a date complication. On the secondary market, this reference typically trades between $9,000 and $12,000 depending on condition and completeness. A notable variant is the Memovox Timer (Q410848J), released alongside this model in a limited run of 250 pieces featuring a blue dial and an elapsed time countdown function.
