Congratulations! Welcome to the club. Right now it is just an ordering club as
no one has gotten a watch yet. But it is a great club. I am finding that as the delivery date gets closer I am getting more impatient. You are right in that Roger has no ego to feed or attitude about his work. Maybe after dealing with enough clients, or establishing a very long waiting list, he might not be so accommodating. But for now, he is agreeable to any personal requests, with in reason I am guessing. So which one is it? They all look so nice. I was kind of nervous to see how the YG movement might look in the WG case, but I wanted a white metal. Well congratulations.

ROGER W SMITH SERIES 2
On order as of today, sent my 10% deposit and then another 30 odd % when he starts the watch in a few months time. We will meet up sometime to discuss my choice of dial and/or engraving at the back etc. Those of you who are interested I have attached the ...

AAAH WHICH ONE SHOULD I HAVE
A number of you have emailed me with regard to contacting Roger in order to obtain some info on the series 2. His email address is rogersmith@rwsmithwatches.com and, although busy now making my watch, I am sure would answer any and all questions you might...

RS SERIES 2 CLUB
Jay, once we all get our watches, we should meet for sure. You chose will look the business, I chose the red on red because I have a soft spot for that old english style of pocketwatch. I travel to NY twice a year so it would indeed be possible to meet up...
Just tell me when your in the city. Will you be wearing your Millennium watch?
Not many opportunities to ever see one of those in real life. Roger has indicated that my watch could be ready as soon as may, but if not, I will come to London in July to collect it. I once shipped a Halter Goldpfeil piece that kept perfect time and it d...
SOUNDS GOOD TO ME
Jay Meeting you and Roger would be great. Roger actually mentioned a possible date in London to meet other enthusiats when I met him. I will, of course, have to wear the Daniels as you will, hopefully, be wearing your Smith and it would be embaressing to ...
That doesn't look like a Series 2 movement.
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but the movement he shows in the mock-ups is markedly different from the movement as I understand it to look. Points of note include that both the direction in with the wheel train moves and the power reserve gear train are absent fr...
My 2 cents
The new larger case 'skeleton' dial (which I saw on 'another site' is not skeleton as tradition has it normally, but sort of subtly and legibly skeletal... ) is my BY FAR favorite of any RS watch... and I want one badly!!! Thanks Jasny for telling me abou...
