Just seen this one over at watchlounge. I think this is by FAR the most impressive dive watch ever made.
What do you think Eddie?
I'm not as think as you drunk I am.

Beautiful, are the yellow triangles on the bezel, tritium lume?
Thomas
Super Compressor maybe?
It's beautiful.
Eddie
Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
Whose watch is it?
Yep, very elegant watch....Do we know the functonality of the second crown? I do not think this watch has an alarm mechanism....
You're not looking very hard, are you? The text on the dial says "Deep Sea Alarm". :D
It's a Memovox Deep Sea 1959 Ref E 857.
I'm not as think as you drunk I am.
OK first off I'm not back just dropped in to see if any news was posted on the 19. Eddie you must make an homage to this even if it doesn't have the alarm function it would be a perfect companion piece to the 50. So now back to my self-imposed exile.

Seconded. Not easy to find alarm movements these days I guess.
I'm not as think as you drunk I am.
Wow... that's lovely.

The numbers on the chapter ring remind me of the 'O Ring' text on the Rolex Sea Dweller Deep Sea.
Yes this is a beauty... makes the original 50 Fathoms ( which I guess is from the same period) look like a wallflower....

The last time I was offered alarm movements it was the AS5008 and they were a small fortune. You could still make it to the same design and have the second crown rotating the internal bezel.

Every watch a story.
No. :lol:Am I hearing what I think I am hearing? :bounce:

It must have been the wind. :shock:

What about the Sea-gull ST28 alarm movement? 8)
What is noteworthy ... for a diver to have a 12H bezel. Any thoughts?
Overall, is there any value in having an alarm on a diver? Or perhaps the alarm was not meant to be used as part of the diving process.

Every watch a story.
Must have been the same wind here John..... and the thought of the second crown rotating the inner minutes bezel..... :hello1:No. :lol:Am I hearing what I think I am hearing? :bounce:

... and the bezel being a 2nd timezone, just like in the original.

Right John....... So we just have to decide on a few other details and Eddie can start working on it... :twisted:... and the bezel being a 2nd timezone, just like in the original.

#25 has my name on it :wink:
WOW is all I can say. WOW.
DO IT-DO IT-DO IT-DO IT-DO IT!
If you build it they will come............... (?)
How about if you make it I'll buy it.
Does anyone know how long it was in production and what variants there were. It's a beauty!

:toothy7: Oh, yes, please.....
That's a real beauty :shock:
How do you sett the alarm on this one? Does it have the same kind of rotating inner disc as in memovox?
An homage to that would be the perfect follow-up to the PRS-50, IMO.
Put me down for #005, please. :D
:shock: That is gorgeous. I'd have one 8)
Right. I want one too - this watch is absolutely "wunderschön"
List...
what about a list? ;)
#1 Eddie :D
I would like to start one but there is the SBIII do be done before, right? ;)
Lets's see what movement choice Eddie would have if we would go a bit more upmarket
(that means today a 2824, right? :) )
Cheerio, Frank
I do need One of those. Please Eddie do it!!! :bounce:
Oh god what have I started..... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
I'm not as think as you drunk I am.
WOW, this is a lovely watch, I would definitively be in if a project was to start and...... put me down for #043 (aaarrrgh, it's starting again :D )
Benoît
Very pretty, I'd probably buy one.

Skating away on the thin ice of a new day
#48 please, before Crusader reads this :)
If it's good enough to get Ron out of retirement, it's good enough for me! Do it!
Put me on the list as well, if the Seagull movement does not work for some reason would a Poljot alarm be a possibility ?
That is really a great looking Watch.
A beautiful watch, would love to see Precista do this one! If alarm movements are available, I'd love to see it done as a sports/alarm mechanical watch as I'm not sure it needs to be a serious dive watch. I'm less enamored of 'infernal' bezels, but it would complete the look. #2 please! :roll:
That really is a spectacularly beautiful watch. A homage to it probably would sell very well.
David
I am making an educated guess because I also thought about it. I'd say yes, the yellow arrow pointing at 12 is not lined-up properly which means, it's probably on a disc.
john
Every watch a story.
I would so totally buy that. (I hate when that happens!)
Lee
That works really well for me - I'd certainly be interested!
Picture is now adorning my desktop!

Mark
I want one 8)
karl
Well, everybody else also wants one! I was first! :evil:
Can i be the first to suggest that we dispense with the LE madness for this one.
What one? :)
I believe JLC have done a re-issue. I saw it in a 'Times Style' magazine i was flicking through. I'll see if i can get hold of it (it's a mate's housemate's) to scan.
