I have wanted a RGM for years because of all the associations with American watch makers. I was able to trade for this with a fellow wis and I couldn't be happier. It is the model 250 pilot with an A07.111 Valgrange movement modified by RGM. This movement is based on a 7750 and RGM upgrades it with an improved hairspring, balance and main spring. It is regulated to within 2 sec. per day. The case is 42mm and presented on a handmade brown aligater strap.

That's hands down the coolest display case back I've ever seen. It's HUGE. I'd want to wear that watch backwards half the time just to look at the back.
