It features the large Arabic numerals and stick hour markers. Date window is at 3 o’clock. The small seconds counter is at 9 o’clock.

Jaeger-LeCoultre introduced the first automatic diving watch the Memovox Deep Sea equipped with an alarm in 1959. Three years earlier, in 1956, Captain Cousteau had unveiled the splendours of undersea life in his famous film “The Silent World”, which caused an unprecedented craze for the new diving techniques that he had developed using air cylinders.

Still riding the wave of success enjoyed by its diving watch range, Jaeger-LeCoultre Swiss Watches sought to pay tribute this year to their original bond with the watery depths, and so the new Memovox Tribute to Deep Sea revisits the Memovox Deep Sea – the first automatic diving watch equipped with an alarm. With identical characteristics to the original model (with the exception of the case diameter, artfully increased from 39 to 40.5 mm), this new timepiece is sure to entice collectors. The Memovox Deep Sea, water-resistant to 10 bar and with its alarm notifying divers of when to begin their re-ascent, was astonishingly popular.

Two limited series of 959 and 359 pieces respectively will be exhibited at the SIHH. The first version sports a black dial, while the second has a two-tone anthracite and black dial, originally developed for the US market and bearing the inscription “LeCoultre” a historic allusion guaranteed to delight aficionados of the history of fine watchmaking.
