RW Smith Series 5
People who know me, can agree that I love independent watchmaking.
And if I would have a grail watch, it is probably my current incoming the Series 5 open worked from the one and only Roger Smith.
Want to thank Caroline, Roger and all the watchmakers at the Isle of Man, making this holy grail, my dream watch a reality!

Congratulations. Roger's work elevates the craft to an art. I would encourage you to continue posting pictures (and videos) to this community, for purely selfish reasons.
Wonderful acquisition, congrats!
Love the purple hands and hour markers, I have requested that combo on my Frodsham.
I went Roman, with RG case.
