I appreciate that!

I had to have my blood drawn at the lab a month ago and was wearing the Roger Smith. The phlebotomist noticed my watch and said it was beautiful. Her grandfather was a watchmaker. It was only the second time in my life that someone noticed and commented o

Congratulations on a spectacular piece!

A very interesting version, too. Wear it with much joy! Given the rarity of the S1 in steel, we‘re tracking pretty well here on WPS.
