Hello,
I recently purchased a LeCoultre 37 Diamond 14K White Gold Mystery Dial Watch in mint condition. I'm trying to find the most authentic looking band to match the watch. Any suggestions or pics of old advertisements. Thanks for any help that can be offered.

The LeCoultre "Galaxy" Mystery Dial watches were produced for over 2 decades and came on a few different styles of straps from the factory over the years. Here are a few that I've seen:

1) a glossy black satin strap
2) a ribbed, black satin strap with leather insert in center
3) a black suede strap

This was essentially a tuxedo watch, so the strap styles were a bit more formal than the typical straps on other LeCoultre watches.

Here are a few pictures:
