Case and Dial Design

The Memovox reference 3041 is housed in a 10K gold-filled case with a 35mm diameter. The design incorporates a dual-crown system, where the top crown functions to set the alarm complication and the bottom crown serves for winding and time-setting. The case is fitted with two crowns, both of which are signed with the Jaeger-LeCoultre logo. The dial is silver with a sunburst finish and a two-dial layout, allowing for the mechanical alarm function. It features gold markers and hands. While the dial retains its silver tone, it shows some signs of age, including spots on the inner rotating disk. The 10K gold-filled hallmark is present on the case back, though it is reported as being slightly worn.

Condition and Attribution

The auction description reports that the case is in excellent condition and is believed to have been replated with 10k yellow gold. There are minimal visible signs of use on the exterior plating. The dial exhibits some aging, specifically spots on the inner rotating component, and the case back markings show expected wear. The watch is sold on a two-piece handmade leather strap. No additional accessories are included with the timepiece. The attribution to LeCoultre is consistent with the signatures found on the dial and the crown logos present on the case.

Movement and Functionality

This timepiece operates on the caliber K814 manual-wind movement, which provides an alarm function characterized by a distinct sound. The movement is designed for both timekeeping and alarm operation. The watch's alarm functionality is described as working according to the vendor's assessment. The alarm complication is integrated into the dial design, which allows for the setting of the alarm through the use of the top crown, providing a functional utility beyond standard time display.
