Love the back dial E 855 in SS! Another one to hunt…! The one with shorter ebony index looks also very nice. Argh… This kind of posts drives me crazy! Vlad, you are pushing me over the edge… Best, my friend Blomman

Be sure that I'm suffering a lot, too...

The Memo Ebene Indexes, short or long, is also in my wish list, as well as some others... After such an exhibition, it is easier to get how we can end with a collection of more than 40 Memovoxes, don't you think ? See you soon, my friend. Nicolas.

40?

Will that be enough?! I am far from that number, but if I could have all the memos I wish for… 40 won’t be enough… Greedy?! Yes… I (we?) need help, my friend – is there any AW (anonymous watchoholics) for guys like us? Best Blomman

I know that feeling.

making me suffer. You make it seem so accessible to add one of these lovely Memovoxes to my collection (alas, we all have different priorities). So, I applaud your contribution, and scold you for torturing us all. --Sancerre

My pleasure, Sancerre.

What is inside your Memo Parking? I kept a very special E 855 fro the, my friend, ,but yes, we can say that this Ref E 855 is vrry representative of the awesome diversity of the Memos, but they are not all, as they are not manual, they came in a big case,...
