Some of their stuff is gorgeous. Anyone here have direct experience with them? Post pics of what you have.

I’ve been real curious and would love to hear.

 

Here’s what I think they do that’s incredible:



Wish I owned one.

 

Why don't you buy one?

 

There’s a world of watches out there. My eyes are bigger than my wallet.

The movement:

 

I like that watch but feel it is really just for people in the US Army Corps of Engineers. If it was a 50 year old one I'd be all over it, but brand new I would never be able to pull the trigger.

 

I’ve always liked RGM Watch Co. They have been tempting me for years.

 

@Larry S has one or two!

 

Love Rgm and the quality behind it. I have a friend who has one as does another family member of his and both pieces are gorgeous! I have met Roland and given my proximity to the Lancaster area am close to his shop. If you visit dm me, maybe we could have coffee!

 

Love doing business with Roland. Workmanship is amazing even down to the Italian leather watch boxes. Lead times are long but the wait is rewarded. He keeps you completely up to date on progress and service is outstanding. Here are mine:
801 COE with 801 mostly in house movement, Grand Feu Dial and Hirsch strap:


455 with Custom Grand Feu Dial, Black Gator strap and 7753 movement. I grabbed the extra Dial when he posted the original on his FB page.

 

I added a better shot of the 801 movement which is finished all the way to the base plate. I would also add that their guillauche work is amazing and done in house. The dials on both my watches I have learned are done in Switzerland by Kari Voutilainen’s Dial shop. These are not a rational purchase ( what watches are really?) but as guy who grew up in Eastern Pa and as an American ... I like to support a local business that is trying to revive American watchmaking.

 

My father and I each waited more than 8 months (not easy!!) recently for our RGM 801 (Corps of Engineers for me and Pennsylvania Series for him), and could not be any happier with the watch or the unique and personalized experience of working with Roland or his team. First class in every way.

 

Movement....

 

I placed an order for a PA series but Roland was so psyched about the COE during the conversation that I changed my order the next day. Congrats on both!

 

Welcome to the RGM club! I He just recently launched a newer version of the COE with a sweep center second hand instead of the subdial. Which version did you get? Both are stunning. And the enamel dial is amazing!

 

See above in this thread. I own two. I'd like to order a one of his guillauche watches one of these days.

 

There’s a black custom 160 ”throwback”dial that he just posted recently -absolutely stunning. Pic from RGM website below...wow!

 

Hope you and your dad enjoy those watches! Very much worth the wait.

 

Very cool! that grand feu dial chrono is amazing
