So many questions? Why did it have to go for service? Was it losing/gaining time, or did the master recommend updating the movement with the double escapement? Looks like you forwent any case polishing. Does the master watchmaker not offer laser welding case refinishing.
Apologies for the bombardment with questions, but these RSmiths are true unicorns in todays world.
Congrats again

...and 'imperfect' details that make it handmade. The movement detail is a little over the top for me but I could live with it : )
Thanks Ssherman 855

I was fortunate to get the watch in the first place and the service that Dr. Smith and his wife Carolyn provide was spectacular…Jim

Hello Hussam, no problem with questions…
By: GreatPilot@me.com : November 11th, 2021-04:17
The watch got condensation in it while cleaning it so I sent it in to th eSmith’s for service. I don’t know the exact history of the watch but Roger and Carolyn did so when I purchased it I counted on their advice. When I sent it in I gave complete contro...
Beautiful Series 2...

I can't wait to receive mine next year (hopefully!). I decided to go for the classic style in the original yellow gold. I understand the waitlist for RWS is now closed as they have overwhelming orders. The first Series 4 just came out in Platinum, hopeful...
That's right...

I was lucky enough to get on the list earlier this year before they closed it but not expecting anything before at least 5 years. Plenty of time to save up for it and think about the specifications!
Haha..
By: RahulR : November 11th, 2021-13:38
The specifications for me are the hardest part. I could think about it for years, I would change my mind multiple times, and in the end leave it to the last minute under significant self imposed stress before making my final choice. At least that's what h...
Can’t almost get better than this .
