Nicolas, known as amanico on WatchProSite, presents a captivating look at the Jaeger-LeCoultre Tribute to Deep Sea family. His original post highlights the historical significance and unique 'fiction tribute' concept behind these revered timepieces. This article delves into why these specific references, despite their short production runs, continue to resonate deeply with collectors and enthusiasts.

I say Tribute because we have two Tribute Deep Sea Alarms, here, and in the spirit, we also have, with the Deep Sea Vintage Chronograph, a superb fiction of what could have been a cool chronograph in the late 50's early 60's. So it is a Fiction Tribute. wink 




The Deep Sea Alarm had a very short life, from 1959 to 1961. A bit like the moderns ( 2011 for the Tribute to Deep Sea Alarm and 2012 for the Deep Sea Vintage Chronograph. Ok, we also had the Deep Sea Chrono, in steel or Cermet, for some more years, as well as the Deep Sea Vintage which was in production after 2012, too, but this line has been discontinued. 

Too bad, as I think Jaeger Lecoultre had something quite appealing, here. 

Best,

Nicolas

Love the (fictional) chrono: Nice vintage feel, both on Nato as well as on leather strap - might however be a little bit biased 😀… Jérôme

about the Deep Sea Chronograph. Such a lovely watch, which must have cost a great deal on design etc., only to be sold for half a dozen years. It remains my favourote watch.

Was just talking about this to a few HK friends last night and how one of my big JLC regrets was not getting the vintage Chrono! Sigh...well, you can't have everything I suppose.
