LeJour Seacolt Diver

Post by koimaster » March 25th 2022, 9:02am

Although the name LeJour conjures up the idea of something fleeting and trendy, that portrayal of the brand couldn’t be further from the truth. The brand’s rich history began back in the 1960s when they also cased watches for names as big as Heuer and Yema. If you’re looking for a bargain in the world of vintage Swiss chronographs, then LeJour is a brand to look out for. But, if you’re in the market for a vintage-flavoured modern dive watch, then the reborn LeJour also has you covered with the LeJour Seacolt Diver.

"The brand’s rich history began back in the 1960s"

Wow, started back in the 60s. Zenith's history also started back in the 60s, '65 if I recall correctly.

Nice to have a discussion with differing viewpoints as adults, agreement or not. I am beginning to like this place. - koimaster

If Im not mistaken Le Jour watches were/are a product of Bernhardt Watches possibly Freds son.

Are these them?

I agree with Conj.

Bernhardt distributed LeJour watches, but that was later.
