The JLC memovox is iconic and highly sought after, I examine it to get an idea of the parts it may need, even a scrap movement for parts wouldn't come cheap.

You didn't show the LeCoultre's movement, that too is collectible, not that bulova 22 jeweler is not collectible and eye catching. Whats inside the Voumard?

I was able to find what case it belonged to but no back.

nice catch....as Nucejoe said, the JLC's is very collectable, I would go for a repair

My plan is to send it to Watch Repairs USA unless one of you can DM me that you can do it or knows someone who can or a reason not to use Watch Repairs USA.  Anyone?

Thanks markr. The movement has an AS look to it.

As for the memovox, you can come up with an estimate of repair cost yourself, this will be useful in choosing the best course of action for repair. First lets find out what parts is your watch missing or needs, since price of part can quickly add up to a forbiding sum in which case you would be better off with a suitable  scrap movement, then what kinda work it needs, if its just a clean and lube and replacing a part or two, you really don't need a master reapirman and can get by with a reasonable figure for the labour. 

Just sending it in you might run a risk of a heart attack.

meant the voumand has AS look.

    this reminds me of trying to find a "silver pocket watch case repair man"   AND  which one to send it to and trust.  vin

    • 1947 NOS Ambassador 'C'. Actually, the case came without the movement so the movement isn't NOS, but she sure is pretty.
    • Hi attached is the AS 20XX. Service sheet although there is no 2063 mentioned it may be of some use to you AS_AS 2060,1,2,6,4,6.pdf
    • one of the problems we have is visible versus invisible. For instance millennium disulfide another high pressure lubricant black in color. I was told by somebody worked for the Boeing company that they had a piston like device somewhere that has eight call it around it to grab it so it has to slide and in the collet has to grab. But if somebody puts that type of dry grease on where grease with that in it it embeds itself basically in the metal and they have to throw the whole part away they get use it all. So I suspect on all the dry powdery lubricants that they will go into all the basically microscopic cracks and crannies of the metaland that's where it is visually at least until you scrub it off your visually going to see it which is good because you want your lubrication the stay word is. But I'm sure it doesn't last forever on the metal it's just a really nice lubrication  
    • Thanks for the info. I can't seem to find tech sheets for those either.  I'll muddle my way though 🙂
    • Ohh spooky I have just aquired the same one mike, but mine has a drill bit inside it.
