Lecoultre and Jaeguer Lecoultre Deep Sea Alarm E 857. A pair which means a lot for me.

The Deep Sea Alarm is a vintage which I dreamed to get, one day. I thought I would only have the US version, as the european is such a rare bird to find and tough to catch. I was lucky to be able to get both of them. The US in 2008, the European in 2009. ...  

Beautiful pair of the original DSA's. What a story to get them back together.

I am happy for you. Best,

A lot of efforts, emotions, bad and good moments, patience... Only a collector can understand all these feelings and emotions. Thanks, emcquillan. [nt]

Wow! I've never read about the story of your DSAs

glad you can get the US version back. finding one in a condition like yours, is considered lucky. but owning 2 like you is... super lucky my friend bravo! both are definitely keeper. enjoy them in great health cheers

Hopefully, I had only one to replace, and it was in 2011. Nowadays, it would be very difficult to do so... Thanks, my friend. [nt]

Dynamic duo my friend...

know a little about the story but appreciate the struggle to have them both back with you !!

Yes, that is the evidence of all the love I have for them. That's why I have such a special feeling when I have them on my wrist. [nt]

Wonderful Nico - huge congratulations on reacquiring your original one! I have always had a preference (only slight) for the simplicity of the European dial - but it's perfect to have both.

Best Will.

I was lucky to get both, and, as you can imagine, I was thrilled. Thank you, my friend. [nt]
