I saw one in the flesh around the holidays while in Lancaster at the NAWCC, it is fantastic in person.  Unfortunately, the gentleman who was wearing it really didn't have a clue.  Of course I noticed it and had to comment.  His reply was "oh yes, it is a very expensive watch" :shock:  I just had to show him my 3T Orsa Sea Angler and explain how exclusive it was subtlelaugh.gif

Again, congrats on an awesome American watch :)  I would love to think that Roland Murphy will start a trend to American watchmaking!

Cheers,
Griff

Thanks for that story Griff and yes it is amazing in person. Still in shock I scored it. Now that I'm thinking about it I may just have to send Roland Murphy and email or maybe even break out the pen and paper and write him a thanks for designing and builing such an amazing watch. I've seen allot of watches in my day and it is good to see something American Made of this high a quality. ;)
