Re: My Two Weeks with a Futurematic

That is a tough question. If it has been serviced, you could ask if the watchmaker used the manual. Otherwise, send it to me and I will take care of it. The case and dial are EVERYTHING on these. Most of the cases were gold filled and any brassing is a big problem. Dials are equally important. Everything else I have in stock but market prices for parts are pretty high. But then, any vintage LeC parts are spendy.
Thanks, Craig
