Re: Futurematic dial styles
Yes, but are correct. When they show luminous material on the dial, the hands are also supposed to be luminous.

Re: Memovox E875 - acrylic glass replacement
You will not find an OEM crystal. No point in even asking around. SO.... whether you send it JLC for whatever they're installing these days, the service will cost you at least 2000 Euros. My recommendation would be to is to install whatever crystal works height-wise and have the shop fit a silver ri...

Re: JLC Memovox Parking
On the manual wind parking, the black arrows are much closer to the dial edge, and the print is sharper.

Re: JLC Memovox Parking

Re: LeCoultre Wrist Alarm
Honestly, I don't think I've seen what you have before, at least not in the past 20 years. It's an odd duck. Would be interesting to see what is marked on the insides of the case back and how the movement is branded. It is unusual to have Swiss hallmarks on the outside. Not all US-marked cases were ...

It's probably some period retailer, unless Raymond Weil was not founded until 1976.

"Weil" would be the retailer, usually a jeweler or a department store.

Re: LeCoultre Wrist Alarm
Without a Jaeger LeCoultre movement serial number, I can not precisely date it, but it would be from around 1954. You have a fairly rare 18k version of that reference (3155 to be precise). I have not had one in 18k recently, but in gold filled they're around $1000-1200, I'd imagine in 18k, it's doub...

Re: Looking for information on this vintage JLC

Re: JLC Vintage Ladies Watch
Where are you getting this serial number information and come up with 1953/54?
