Perfectly normal...
While one of the innovations of the c.956 movement is the suspended-gong arrangement which allows for that clear, school bell-like chime, it intentionally modified to emit a buzzer-type sound for duty in the DSA to further enhance the watch's historical accuracy.
To me, this is yet another example of the lengths that JLC went through to ensure that the Memovox Tribute to Deep Sea would be the absolute best, er... "tribute" they could possibly make.

Question re. JLC Alarm Sounds
I have a question regarding the alarm on the JLC Deep Sea Alarm that I am hoping Nico or another owner/expert might be able to answer - I recently picked up a Deep Sea Alarm and have noticed that the ring of the alarm sounds markedly different from the al...

Thank you Adam and Nico
I am so used to the clear and bracing ring of my Amvox, which I do love, that this was a big surprise.
My Paris Tribute sounded

... Which sounded like that. So all is right! Best, Nicolas
Ring Ring
Robert, I like you was not over the top on the ring. Had never seen or heard the watch until the day my AD said the baby had landed. But for me. I adore this watch. And after a few weeks have come to appreciate the alarm. I did not realize the history. Bu...
Yep
I just hate April 15 here in USA But that one is next. The sound is divine. The look beautiful. Feels comfortable too. Thx for showing your love of this one. It's contagious. Joe
Surprise.
I must say that I was a little surprised by the alarm when I took delivery of my DSA. I was profoundly different from the alarm on my Polaris or my MMI, to me it was more like a vibration than an alarm. The feeling was somewhat disturbing, but I finally g...
How is it done?
My AMVOX 1 is ringing by far much louder although with more 'metal distortion' than my Memovox International and I have to say I appreciate the sonic differences as they match each of the watch's character. Could you shed some light how JLC managed to ach...
I had had the same thought
when the alarm first went off - that underwater the vibration would be the important means to "sound the alarm" that time is running out. Glad to know that this is normal. The TT DSA is very charming.
Its completely normal
although I dont use the alarm as it barely rings, but that makes it more beautiful, no
