This rare, stainless steel Jaeger LeCoultre Tribute to
Deep Sea Alarm American Edition from 2011 is in excellent condition and has
been tested for mechanical functionality. This Tribute to Deep Sea is a
faithful reissue to the original Deep Sea that was released in 1959, and sold
to the American markets as the "LeCoultre Spécial Amérique 1959”. It is
a limited edition with only 359 examples made, and it comes as a full set
with box and papers with additional fitting bracelet and tropic strap.
Sized at 40.5mm, it is impressively similar in size to the original from
1959. The case features a mixture of brushed and polished surfaces, giving
off a nice contrast and depth to the watch. It features long, straight
bevelled lugs and a fixed, matte bezel made of anodised aluminium. The
decision to use aluminium instead of ceramic was made in order to stay
faithful to the original. Furthermore, the bezel is hour marked with luminous
triangles on each pole. The black dial has a grainy texture with luminous
hour markers and features syringe hands that are similarly filled with
luminous material. The dial is signed ‘LeCoultre’, which was the name and
branding Jaeger LeCoultre used in the American market back then.
Awaiting its lucky new owner.
