Hello,
I am new to Futurematics but generally have seen two face types described: the gas gauge and porthole. However, I also have seen images of a variation that has a red crosshatched quadrant in place of the black-and-red (or black-and-gold) gas-gauge arc. Which is earliest? Is the crosshatched variant still from the 1950s? If not, from when does it date? Also, are all the Futurematics, regardless of face type, 35 mm in diameter? Many thanks!
