Le-coultre Futurematic Wristwatch

1940 - 1960
Description

A Le Coultre Futurematic wristwatch. A silvered dial with triangular hour markers and dauphine hands. A subsidiary seconds dial to the right of the dial and a power reserve indicator to the left. A 10K gold filled case stamped to the inner 'cased and timed in the USA by LeCoultre'. A Le Coultre caliber 497 automatic 'bumper' mechanism bearing the mark VXN, indicating the watch was imported into and sold in America. The Futurematic was made between 1951 and 1959.

The Futurematic was advertised as the worlds first 100% automatic wristwatch. It was also the first ever watch to not feature a winding crown. As there is no winding crown, the watch depends solely on the automatic function to be wound.
