Jaeger-LeCoultre

I would like to present one of my latest acquisitions; This is a watch I have been very intrigued by for a long time. Haven’t seen it in the metal many times and when I did it often been in a very bad condition… At my trip to JLC I had the chance to have ...  

i had one for a short while a long time ago, before they became so difficult to aquire in good condition. its a great watch with, as you say, great symmetry. enjoy it Graham

I will definitely enjoy it! Best Blomman

Sorry, but I just learned that it’s the wrong box for this watch. The watch is for the LeCoultre version and not the JLC version I got. Sorry for that fellow PuristS! But that is only one more reason why I should hunt one more – the LeCoultre version! Bes...  

Yes, indeed, this is not the good box for the JLC Futurematic, my friend. I didn't know how to tell you that, as you were so happy with your latest catch, and you can be proud of it. You really got a magnificient example, here, with my favourite case: Str...

Impressive. Best, Nicolas

It is always good to have you saying hello! Impressive Futurmatic collection! I really enjoy seeing this kind of line up of a watch! Question, the second row-left looks to be the same version I got. Would you mind post a bigger photo so I can compare and ... 

can't say any more! stefan

Not sure, but it may be the correct box for the Futurematic... Best, my friend. Nicolas

... anyway, it is a beautiful box. stefan

If I writing things that are not true at this forum – please correct me! Otherwise I will go on thinking this I true and also others might read and think I am right… That would be unfortunate. Thank you, my friend! Yes, I am very happy about this one! And... 

I own this one for 2 or 3 years, now. And, like you, I fell in love with its originality, and its great class. I'm pretty sure you got this box to have a good reason to buy another watch... Best, my friend. Nicolas

…need a reason to get another watch! But you are probably right, this will give me a reason to start look more into the LeCoultre part of the history! Best, my friend Blomman

Congrats - this is so rare watch and in such a beautiful condition - I love still version and I hope I ll find one some day (so far I have the case back ), Both the steel and slightly oversize case makes this watch very desirable in my eyes - Honestly my ... 

I have had the Futurmatic in the back of my head for a long time and when I saw exact the one version I like at the Manufacture I know I had to have one. Actually, there are still some around; the problem is that most of them are in gold (I prefer white m... 

Once I was close - but till I did good check it was already gone. Again my congrats My best Rafal

Blomman Welcome to the futurematic clan. Very nice example. Enjoy it they're fabulous watches. Its probably the only one that I'd have an alternate version of, if one became available. Wonder if they'll ever do a reissue or update. Think I could start the...  

You will not be alone, I will right behind you! Thank you, yes the clan is growing here. Best Blomman

Another great addition to your collection, for sure. It is amazing how different the several versions of this watch are even in this thread. Yours looks great for its spa treatment and mighty fine on your wrist. So, is the "crown" underneath comfortable a... 

It’s much more comfortable than I could ever imagine. Yes, I have always wondered about that. Even though the watch was not produced for that many years, it came in very many different cases and dial variations. Especially if you take the American v... 

Very nice catch, as you say so well balanced, very clean, nothing to add, just perfect! Matt

The dial looks fantastic, love the red touch. Enjoy it. Vte

…is my favourite version! As you can see in the thread there are many different dial versions, but this one is my favourite! Thanks, Vte. Best Blomman

WOW, Blomman, you got another very nice vintage - Futurmatic! at that time, MJLC really made this watch for future, many decades after, you won't feel this watch outdated! congrats, the dial details look excellent and fascinating to me! Futurmatic will be... 

I feel with you! Once you have made the decision, the waiting is almost physical pain! But patience my friend, the one you are waiting for are definitely worth it! The AMVOX I is a great watch! Thank you, Stefan – and I am looking forward to see you with ...

...and here's Porthole version: Both are US cased versions. But no movement shots? We must correct this: Nice pickup Blomman! gatorcpa...  

Yes That’s the one! I will have to start hunting one in SS… Thank you, and thank you for sharing! Best Blomman

I'll take it from you any time you tire of it ;-) (not likely)! I've had several Futurematics, but never one of the Etanche models in stainless.... its on my wish list. Best, Greg

No, not likely I let this one go… Yes, I was very surprised when I ran into this one… Big case, SS and a good dial is not often seen. Thank you, and thank you for all your help! Best Blomman

thanks for sharing
