This LE JOUR Remind-O-Date Alarm features a cricket alarm with a blue broad arrow alarm pointer! It's dial is in excellent condition, where all painted details remain crisp & clear despite its age!

The LE JOUR Watch Company was born in the 1960s & quickly gained popularity for the elevated craftsmanship found in their mechanical watches, even at modest pricing. The company seemingly disappeared during the "Quartz Revolution" of the 1970s. Today however, it has made a winning comeback with a new array of complications.
