Hello Amanico
First excuse my poor english
I live in france and i have like you a wonderful deep sea master mariner which JLC Paris revised in 2005;it s my watch for all days and it is very very accurate;
But i m surprise because the movement is not a K883 like other that i have ever seen but a K 883 s with a stop second and
adjusted five position and temperatures;i belived that this movement was only for the Geomatic ;
Can you tell me more about this,?
It return soon to Switzerland for a second revision ;
I hope you understand my demand
Thanks a lot
Pascal from France

After a loooong wait of 13 months, my Master Mariner Deep Sea is back from the Service Center! Since it was a long time we didn't speak about it, I know have several excellent reasons to post this thread. For those of you who want to know more about the w...

There was one Cal 883 which had a stop second, the 883 S.
The movement of the Geomatic is the K 881 G.( G for Geomatic ) and, sometimes, the 883 S. ( S for stop second ) Best, Nicolas

Thank you Amanico But why have you a cal883 and on my model a 883 S;it s normal or not;i will try to post a photo ; Thank you a lot Pascal
Your movement should not hack.
Please give me your case and movement numbers, then a picture of the movement and of the inside part of your case back. Best, Nicolas
883S vs 883 on a DSMM
I don't get your point on "your movement should not hack"... can you explain ? My initial question was on the reason why the movement in my DSMM watch is a 883S although all the other watches of this very model was equiped with a 883... why mine is differ...
Hacking means that the second hand stops.
Pleae post pics of your movement, case back, and the whole watch. Give me your case and movement number. There are many possible explanations: A new movement during a service, a re assembled watch, a rarity... Best, Nicolas

Hello Amanico The ref of the movement is K 883 S number: 2019307 or 2010307 I can't send any photo can you give me your email and I 'll send you directly the photos; best Pascal
Your movement belongs to the good era.
Then, the question remains to know if the movement was changed for a " S " suring a service, or of the watc has been re assenmbled. I f you have no track about its life, I fear you will never have the answer... Best, Nicolas

Thank you The ref on the case back is 05 - 70 I suppose it was one of the least I ll wille try one more time to insert photos; Best ¨Pascal
Does the stop feature stil work?
Me thinks maybe some of the Chronometre movements which did not pass the certified test were used for watches other than the Chronometers ie. Geophysic and Geomatic. An indication *could* be the stop funktion would not work anymore. (removed stoplever) Il...
Another funky 70-ies design ...
... though it appears to be from 1967 if i'm correct ? What's there more to say than you already said above my friend ? Pure vintage delight and impossible for me to follow .... i shall have to take a special course at our friend's place in Sweden ... som...
LOL. Sometimes, there are true bargains on this watch.
So, if you are lucky and patient, you may well be able to get one... Best, my friend. Nicolas.
Quite a heavy hand on polishing
Nice to see it back after a long wait ! :-) With all due respect for the servicing job, I think the level of polishing is much too strong for my personal liking for such a watch. The sides are mirror polished in such a fashion I don't think it has ever be...
Not that heavy, the polish...
It is a bit a trick of the light. Here are two other pics, where you can notice the soleillé finish... Best, Nicolas ...
One I still miss...
Like Clavi, I prefer untouched - but this time it doesn't look like JLC overpolished - looks great! :) You will have to show me in details next time, my friend! Best Blomman
