E874 is the US-market version of the design. It was cased in the States by the Star Watch Case Company and signed on both the caseback and the movement in the North American convention of the period. The round case measures 36mm and is finished in gold plating - the E874 being the gold-plated version of the classic round case, here stamped \u003cem\u003ePlaqué Or 80 Microns\u003c\/em\u003e inside the back. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe champagne sunburst dial is what defines this example. It is clean and warm, with applied markers carrying deep blue inlay, a date aperture at three, and the alarm triangle riding the red inner setting track that every Memovox collector knows. Two crowns run the watch: one sets and winds the alarm, the other handles the time and date. The gold finish shows light honest wear at the high points, consistent with a plated case of this age.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eInside is the caliber 916, the movement that makes this generation worth attention. Introduced in 1969, it was the first Jaeger-LeCoultre alarm caliber to use a fully rotating rotor rather than the older bumper system, the first to run at the modern 28,800 vph, and it brought a 45-hour power reserve with a center-mounted alarm pin. It has been serviced and all functions, including the alarm, are working as they should. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e✓ Professional inspection by our watchmaker\u003cbr\u003e✓ One-year warranty\u003cbr\u003e✓ Express shipping included\u003cbr\u003e✓ Carefully packed and ready to wear\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCASE:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eGold-plated case, \u003cem\u003ePlaqué Or 80 Microns\u003c\/em\u003e, by Star Watch Case Company (US-market)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCase diameter: 36mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eLug-to-lug: 40.5mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThickness: 12mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eTwo crowns: alarm setting\/winding and time\/date\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCaseback engraved with serial 1272336\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIAL:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eChampagne sunburst dial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eApplied hour markers with deep blue stone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDate window at 3 o'clock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eBlued baton hands\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMOVEMENT:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eJaeger-LeCoultre automatic Caliber 916 \"Speedbeat\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e17 jewels, adjusted to three positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003efull-rotor automatic winding with alarm and date\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSwiss made\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eServiced; all functions working, including alarm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"DuMarko","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50731360977148,"sku":null,"price":4490.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2266\/1116\/files\/IMG_6808_4.jpg?v=1785231878","url":"https:\/\/dumarko.com\/de\/products\/vintage-jaeger-lecoultre-memovox-ref-e874-automatic-cal-916-speedbeat-blue-onyx-indices-gold-plated-case-alarm-watch","provider":"DuMarko","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
