Another automatic Jaeger-LeCoultre on the wooden beam: the Futurmatic
Friends,
More famous than the Powermatic, and no wonder...
When the Jaeger-LeCoultre Futurmatic was released, it was an entire new concept!
"No" crown, fully automatic (not possible to wind), the movement stop before it is fully unwind (to make it operational as soon as you wear the watch again).
Another French market watch, another "Jumbo", 36mm steel case.
Love the symmetry of this watch, not only the dial but the case as well.
Best

If I really would like to see a new iteration of a vintage timepiece, it's the Futurematic.
It's really what we can call a true automatic watch. So ahead of its time when it has been released. So please JLC, unveil a new one! 🙏 Best wishes Alkiro
You said it all. This watch is a classic, a star living under the shadow of its sisters the Geophysic, DSA and Polaris.
But a true star. Thanks for these superb pictures, Blomman. Best, nicolas
Great. shot, splendid watch !.. Just thought to add another Ref., ie The Porthole to send Futurematic greetings !
Innovative, eclectic.. Too early for its time ? - Pleasure to look at, anyway . Best, my friend ! hs. ...
