Terry, you're very welcome. It took me several tries before I worked out the whole calendar thingy!

The current issue, April 2008 of International Watch has more info on the RGM movement. Just picked up the issue today, it was delayed because of Basel and SIHH embargoes.

RE: Economy, I think RGM in a small way is showing how good American craftsmanship can be, and while I say this without having seen an RGM in the flesh, I've ridden a couple of Harley's and old F150s and am still wearing a pair of 501s from the 80s (while they were still made in the US!!) to know that it's one thing Americans can get right... quality. Hopefully this is a trickle upstream.

And Rock, with an exhibition case back, it's something to enjoy, for me anyways, at the end of the day, with a glass of something nice, and some quality time with one's treasued timepiece!
