Specialist note
The present Deep Sea Chronograph is preserved in excellent overall condition and is sold with the original certificate and vintage-style presentation box.
Taking its inspiration from Jaeger-LeCoultre’s rich watchmaking history, this Special Edition vintage-inspired diver’s two-register chronograph is a particularly successful rendering of the style born from the famous Memovox Deep Sea Alarm models of the late 50s and early 60s. The look is authentic with “tropic” luminescent material on the indexes and hands to replicate aged patina as well as a fixed 12-hour bezel and plexi-crystal modeled after the 1959 originals. For great vintage looks in a modern watch this Deep Sea Chronograph is hard to better.
