No, this theory is just a theory.
What you read is that the 16 holes in the Polaris case back were made to insure a better propagatiion of the sound, underwater.
Which still has to be scientifically demonstrated.
But this has nothing to see with the Deep Sea Alarm, Tribute or not.
The Tribute, just like the Orginal, sounds like a cricket, not like a school bell. In less loud, yes. But not much less...

Jaeger-LeCoultre Tribute to Deep Sea Europe version: a vintage touch of elegance!
It's great to see these days so many posts of new owners of their own Jaeger-LeCoultre Tribute to Deep Sea. You rarely see so much pleasure freely and frankly expressed. You may to some extent wonder why? The delivery of the Tribute to Polaris watches was...
++1 ,Sir .. So very much indeed.. Enjoyed your post, Dje ! :))
Indeed, being one of those, with some posts. pics & a lot of nice experiences- having picked it up quite early (see Nico's post about their arrival, BTW..) <\p> - I could not agree more, to all you said - Congrats to you, the development team and JLC for ...
Thanks. I love your first pic.
Hi By the way I have nothing to do with those involved in the project, even if I know them. Cheers Dje
Nevertheless .. Then 'simple' Congrats to you ! .. And ..
.. if you kindly allow - I would humbly maintain: still Tribute to the dev Team and of course to LGM !! Again, enjoyed your pics & the stimulating post ! Summerly best, hs PS: - glad you also enjoyed my humble '2-cent pics'
I have never thought of pairing my wathces with my shoes.
What a novel idea. Congratulations on the watch a great catch and I hope that you get the TT reverso 31 one day. Best regards, George
Nice love song, Jerome. ...
Great pictures, full of love. Enjoy your summer watch, my friend. Nicolas.
Tempting
Thank you for sharing the great pics and thoughts! Since I've seen recently in the Boutique a prototype of it, I'm also haunted by this beauty... Despite that I'm not a diver nor a genuine vintage fan! The watch just felt 'right'. But the dices have falle...
Timing!
If I had seen the Tribute to Deep Sea first, then I might have gone down the road to the beach... But for now, my eyes are screening the night sky for the moon... I'll pick up my Duometre coming Monday, Swiss National Day! Not many better dates to buy a J...
Congratulations, Jerome.
on your new acquisition. Beautiful piece. I like the look of it better than its US cousin. Aloha, Bob
Always enjoyed your post...
Congrats and thanks for sharing your love with us. Best. Ed
Congrats, Jerome!
Nice one, and nice strap, too. I am still comfortable enough with the original strap (convenient with lots of holes for small wrists), but may think of replacing someday. I wonder what made you decide to change it upon purchase.... Or anybodfy's take on t...
Thanks. So you got one?
Hi, I've not been too fan of the strap since the Polaris. I love the Bridge of Weir leather used in AML cars. Cheers Dje
Congrats
Congrats I agree, I do not like the stock strap. Your strap looks nice. Where did you purchase your strap? Please send me a pm, thanks. I'm getting a strap made for my DSA. I wasn't sure whether to get a strap with black stitching or another color. I went...
Good to see another one...
on a well deserving owner! Congrats & enjoy this beauty. cheers fernando
I like it that they're fast to market with their products...
some brands, you don't know when they'll ever come out. and, of course, very nice pieces too! they're so ever close to getting customer expectations right... closer than most. congrats Dje!
congrats on a great piece..
and the strap...i like that combo.... wear it in best of health...
Great homage to a fantastic watch!
Thank you for a great post, Dje! I could not agree more. Best Blomman
They are special watches, aren't they?
I decided not to wear my DSA to the office today, simply so I could look forward to going home, opening my watch box and find it there smiling back at me. Ridiculous, no? And yet that's just how "inspired" I am by this piece. Regards, Adam
enjoyable read...
... thanks Dje, your post gives us different view and angle of looking at this reissued piece, like what you said. thanks! stefan
What about the sound?
Dear Dje, hello from Belgium. I am also the proud owner of a Deep Sea, but do not have your picturing talents. I had an argument on a french forum about the ringing frequency of the alarm. It, indeed, sounds completely differently than my Memovox and defi...
Easy. THe sound of the TT DSA Alarm was a deliberate choice.
The Cal 956 housed in the TT DSA is the same than the one you will find in the TT Polaris and the 2010 Master Memovox. The only difference being the date ( which has been removed in the TT DSA ) and the alarm sound. Why? Easy. On the TT DSA, the JLC team ...
Thanks
Thanks Nicolas, is the original sound then also tuned for improved propagation under water? None of my Memovoxe's ring like the DSA, and some are from the same period. I am sure that I read some JMC publications talking about this difference between the w...
