Yes I’m a big fan of Robert’s as well.

Was lucky to meet him in October last year in London at the Worshipful Company of Clockmakers dinner. Lovely fellow!

Cheers

Have a great start to the week, y’all! Love the contrast of the hands and the warm copper tone of the case! ...

I hope Robert's brand is doing well. Met him at Salon QP in London a few times. A most lovely man and honest. I being a crazy nut when it comes to accuracy once asked him how accurate his watches were and he candidly replied between 15 and 20 seconds dail... 

Thanks Sham!

Is this the model with the re-worked Smiths caliber? Enjoyed seeing it in London in Oct last year my good man. Cheers, Tim

Ah, now seeing your pics below, I was incorrect.

tricky to identify the base Auto-winding caliber, do you happen to know what it is? Inquiring minds want to know;-) Cheers, Tim

I'll dig out the brochure to find out the movement specs.

The reworked Smiths caliber was only used in the Loomes Robin and Robina models j think. These copper models were made prior to that (in a LE of 100 pieces I think). No - brochure is no help. Doesn’t actually say what the movement is. Will need to ask Mr ...  

Thank you! [nt]
