Sunday pleasure: A close up of the Jaeger Lecoultre Master Mariner Deep Sea and Lecoultre Deep Sea Alarm Dials.
The only thing they have in common is " Deep Sea ", but they are totally different Deep Sea. One has a date, a normal rotor, a cushion super compressor case, while the other has a conventional ( Huguenin Frères ) case, an alarm and a bumper. One is a cult watch, the other a very cool watch and most probably will gain its " Classic " status.
Without mentioning the rotating bezel for the Deep Sea, and the fixed bezel for the Deep Sea Alarm.
The Close up of the MM Deep Sea alone.
These vintage JLC Divers are really interesting...
Best,
Nicolas

Both lovely watches but I much prefer the dial on the alarm model.
No date, nicer hands although the large text with the off centre “Automatic” detracts from it in my opinion. Regards Kev.
For some years I thought this marine master could be the coolest sports watch ever.
That charming I always found it
