====== Maurice Lacroix Mémoire 1 ====== {{wst>image_cr|Maurice Lacroix|Mémoire 1}} **Mémoire 1** is a [[chronograph]] by [[Maurice Lacroix]]. ==== Info ==== With the [[2007]] launched chronograph Mémoire 1, Maurice Lacroix, after three years of development, presented the world's first mechanical movement with memory function. Even with the design of the case and the dial as well as with the movement decoration and the materials the company is treading new paths. The [[self-winding]] movement [[ML 128]] was awarded the "Golden Balance" [[2008]] (in the division Technology Prize) of the German [[Uhrenmagazin]]. The special construction features claim that time and stop function are represented on the same pair of hands. In addition, the mechanism realizes the value once stopped and allows the wearer of the watch to switch between the two times as often as he wishes. The watch is limited to only 20 pieces. The price of the watch, which is brought on the market in [[2008]], is approximately 300,000 Euros. **Movement:** * [[Self-winding]] [[manufacture]] movement Maurice Lacroix [[ML 128]], 28,800 A/h * Bidirectional winding * 48 [[jewels]] (25 transparent [[sapphire]]s, 23 [[jewels]]) * [[Precision regulation]] with worm screw system * KIF [[shock protection]] * Decorated by hand, [[tantalum]] colored [[PVD]] coating * Wheels gilded or with black PVD coating * Transparent [[Balance wheel]] with [[white gold]] ring * Nivaflex-M- mainspring * 537 components, including 9 switching hearts **Case: ** * [[White gold]] / [[palladium]] * Ø 49 mm * [[Sapphire crystal]], antireflecive at the inside * Screw-in caseback with antireflecive [[sapphire crystal]] **Dial:** * Black and silver * Transparent, antireflecive hour disc on mineral basis * Minutes hand, hours disc and hours index with white, blue luminous coating * [[Faceted]] indexes as applications * Luminous numerals and hands * [[Skeletonized]] [[GMT]] hands **Functions:** * Hours, minutes, seconds * Date indication with disc * [[Chronograph]] with mechanical Memory function (Time mode and Chrono mode), mode indication **Bracelet: ** * Hand-sewn, mat Alligator leather with [[tang-type buckle]] in [[white gold]] with palladium ===== Videos ===== * [[Maurice Lacroix Mémoire 1 Video]] * [[Maurice Lacroix ML 128 Video]] ===== Weblinks ===== * [[http://www.memoire1.ch|Mémoire (company website)]] {{tag>Watch_models Maurice_Lacroix_models}}
