I came across a futurematic, stainless steel (37 mm), with a black dial (signed le coultre) where the movement (cal 497) is signed 'le coultre et vacheron". Is this observed at other watches ? Can anybody tell me more on this. Any comments greatly appreciated? |

What do you mean the movement is signed Vacheron? If you mean the VXN mark, this topic has been covered several times before, just search on VXN. |

The steel screw back one has the same characteristics as the european steel ones, so yes. |

This is the dial. Any opinions on the authenticity? http://www.photos-encheres.com/store/72/667/04.JPG |

Thought so too. One can conclude that the larger part of what is offered on ebay is refinished. Zaf, thanks for your comments |
