$700 for this good or bad? Need help?

 

@gatorcpa has experience in Futurematics, as he owns a couple of them.

Based on my limited experience, the case looks rather worn. Also, service on one of these is expensive, and parts are hard to come by. What's the service history of this watch? If it hasn't been serviced, be prepared for further expenses down the road.

 

Looks like a redial and the case looks polished. I would wait for a better example.

If you want to know more about the Futurematic, have a look at how a very reputable watchmaker goes about servicing them: http://watchguy.co.uk/service-repair-lecoultre-futurematic-calibre-497/

It's a great read, and afterwards you'll fully appreciate why Christian (the watchmaker) says:

You are looking at around 180-210GBP (~$235-275US) for a service from him if you get one. That doesn't include parts that may be worn inside. And those are rare unless you buy donor watches.
