Specialist note

In the late 60’s, Jaeger-LeCoultre created this diving watch combining a chronograph with a world time bezel to fulfil any active and sporty wrist of the time. Also advertised as the "Vogue Chronograph" in Europe and the "Shark Deep Sea" in the US, the present watch features a large 40 mm. diameter case and was made with three different bezels: a traditional diver's bezel, a GMT bezel very similar to the Rolex Pepsi-job, and the present World Time bezel.

A similar model is illustrated in Jaeger-LeCoultre, The Story of a Grande Maison by Franco Cologni, p.337.
