On a whim at Christmas time I bought a vintage Memovox World Time. Over the holidays I researched what I had bought and realized the authenticity of what I have is not clear. This forum has been very helpful reading. Here are the facts I have: - Outer dial is signed JLC (black) - Innder dial appears to be World Time (black) - Movement is signed LeCoultre K825 (not JLC) - Inside serial is 1870765 - Outer caseback signed "Memovox 882688" - Inner caseback is signed "LeCoultre" - Both crowns are signed JLC I will post pictures shortly. Any thoughts on originality are appreciated. | ||

Sounds like a USA market watch that has had it's dial repainted to appear like it's a black European market world time. I have yet to see a real black dial world time. If someone has photos of one, let's take a look. | ||
