Instead of an alarm to hear, an alarm to “feel” while underwater:

Far less economical and for the same reasons not owned by me (photo from here) - but maybe this post will draw out a member with one?

if so, a presumptive “dibs”

Unfortunately I don’t have an original but the tribute is pretty close

Speaking watches. The funniest and more useful complication, it gives a supplement of soul for sure. 👍

I am looking for a Vintage Memovox to add this complication to my collection 📖

Lot of beautiful ones here

Girard-Perregaux needs some representation here (damaged crystal and all).

These memomatics were very under valued until recently.

I loved the blue on sharkmesh. But I could never understand why "Seamaster" got squeezed (imho) onto the blue dial, but not on to the other dial versions. Any reason known? I know, sounds a bit OCD, but in the end I couldn't stop seeing the squeeze rather than the blue dial's undeniable overall beauty. (Especially on sharkmesh!)

A cool and useful complication. I wonder if back in the day you had to silence your alarm watch at the movies.

You would with a vulcain cricket! The only alarm watch I've found that is loud enough to wake you up in the morning!

Angelus Datalarm, and what was advertised as "World's First Alarm Watch With Automatic Date".
(don't exactly know if this is really the case...)
