Vintage Jaeger Le Coultre Memovox movement

The Memovox I have is powered by a Caliber 814 movement. This is an in-house movement that I hope can stand more years as maintenance and parts for these can be very expensive. There is no JLC service center in the Philippines and the authorized dealers here will likely send it to Singapore for servicing. That makes them expensive. Here's a photo and a video showing the movement in action.

Cal. 814 is a manually wound movement running at 18,000 A/h with a potential reserve of 52h. The movement features an alarm that can run up to 20 seconds.
 Here's a short video of the movement in action:
