LeCoultre Deep Sea Alarm Reference E 857 Unpolished w/ Extract

The LeCoultre Deep Sea Alarm Automatic reference E 857 is one of the most exciting vintage dive watches. These cases were made by Huguenin Frères and powered by the automatic alarm Jaeger-LeCoultre calibre 815. This example has an incredibly attractive dial.

The watch was sent to JLC for a full service and JLC replaced the alarm crown (made to the specific dimensions of the original) and relumed the hour and minute hands. JLC also replaced the bezel insert with a service grey insert (with tritium), but the original insert is included with the watch. This example has an incredibly attractive dial. The dial and disc are original and unaltered. The case and case back are also unpolished and in amazing condition. This is one of my favorite watches available on the market, and an epic alternative diver. The watch dates to circa 1960.

The watch does not come with box and papers. It does come with an Extract from The Archives.
