Lecoultre Deep Sea Alarm. My heart is bleeding...

Apr 17, 2014,06:13 AM
 

While I was taking my JLC Navy SEALS Alarm out of the safe, I immediately had this Deep Sea Alarm in mind, as it is clearly one of the ancesters of the NSA.






A Watch which is, with its sister, the European version, somewhere in Northern Europe for a well deserved SPA, but which misses me a lot, since it has been a long time I sent it... Well, nothing too serious since I know I will see it again

Exactly the contrary of a french saying which literally says " Far away from the eyes, far away from the heart ".






These DSA are certainly in my top 5 favourite Vintage JLCs, to tell the truth.

Lovely, sensual, cool, they have all I am looking for, in a Watch.

To avoid any jealousy, two pictures of the European.

 


 


What are the watches which make your heart bleed?

Best,

Your title gave me shock. I thought something happen to your DSA ... I may have something that makes my heart bleed as well Regard Tyler

No, but their temporary absence makes you feel how much you love them! ;)

.. I guess, one scenario is as mentioned : the absence of a beloved intensifies the love, and/ or brings to the surface, what we have known anyway.. Here a picture of this one, my very first JLC MMV, which I always miss, when put away into the safe - just...  

Oh yes.. So we (partially) stay with.. Mirabelles, or better..

that you will get them back! :-) I cannot exactly say that the temporary absence of one of my watches makes my heart bleed, but yes, I miss them also. I hope you will get them back soon! Best, Martin

Within a few months, I hope, before the holidays...

I fully understand and 'suffer' with you. I think the industry has got to get their act together with service times. There Rolex once again sets an example for the rest to follow. As to what makes my heart bleed. In the JLC family it is a deep sea alarm f...  

I sent t to another place than the JLC Manufacture, though.
