It's a JLC Memovox reference E855 from the early 1960s. Worth $1000 to $1500 depending on condition. | ||

The non date version also exists and the watch did not necessarily come with a steel bracelet, most did not. The band is very hard to find, the top right winding crown is to wind and set the alarm. |
