Released in 1972 and produced for that year only, the Memovox Speed Beat GT gets its name from its large oval case and the high frequency of its movement. "GT" stands for "Grande Taille," indicating the substantial size of the case, while "Speed Beat" poetically refers to the rapid ticking of the watch's movement. According to a 1970s advertisement, the Memovox Speed Beat GT is the ideal accessory for a man with a busy and dynamic lifestyle.
The watch features the high-frequency Jaeger-LeCoultre 916 caliber and a date display. It includes a stainless steel bracelet.
