The Memovox is probably the most sought-after Jaeger-LeCoultre watch amongst collectors. JLC is about to present a limited series of three new Master Memovox International watches at the Parisian concept store Colette. Why? Well, from the 29th of November till the 31st of December, 25 participants are showing off their best pieces of art (and timepieces are included in that definition) during a project called 'The Cabinet of Curiosities by Thomas Erber'.For this event at Colette, Jaeger-LeCoultre has created a special edition of the Master Memovox International watch in a black PVD-coated steel case. This model is issued in a three-piece limited edition.The Memovox was introduced in 1956 and features a mechanical alarm. The International edition of the Memovox has a city disc displaying 24 cities (because of the 24 hour timezones) that can be selected using the 2nd crown. For this special event at Colette, the word "Paris" has been replaced with "Colette", the name of the famous concept store. The automatic movement (caliber 956) consists of 268 parts and has a 45-hour power-reserve.

If nobody knows exactly which woman inspired the first ladies' watch from the Manufacture, Jaeger-LeCoultre has, however, always devoted considerable attention to ladies' timepieces in terms of both aesthetics and mechanism excellence. The muse could have been a beautiful actress like Diane Kruger who has chosen Jaeger-LeCoultre timepieces to wear at the Oscars Ceremony and Party, held in Los Angeles (California) on Sunday evening (March 7th 2010). Diane Kruger attended the Oscars for "Inglourious Basterds", the movie of Quentin Tarantino. She was wearing the diamond bracelet Art Deco 101, which houses the smallest watch movement in the world invented by the Swiss Watch Manufacture, the famous 101 mechanical movement. (Picture with the cast, including Christoph Waltz, awarded best Supporting Actor). For the Vanity Fair party, Kruger was wearing a 1949 timepiece taken from Jaeger-LeCoultre museum in Switzerland, a watch enclosed in 225 diamonds specially lent for this occasion.
