WHY WE LOVE IT 

Roland G. Murphy is one of the OGs of American watchmaking.

He established his eponymous brand, RGM Watch Company, in 1992 following his tenure as Technical Manager for Hamilton. Since then, he’s built it into a force to be reckoned with; whether it’s a hand-wound chronograph, an automatic pilot’s watch, or a complicated dress piece, RGM’s take is bound to be high-quality.

The particular RGM we have here is a Model 455 Chronograph, the brand’s version of a 1940s-era chrono. Housed in a 38mm stainless steel case with ‘officer’s’ lugs, an unsigned crown, and a stepped bezel, it features a grand feu, glass-fired enamel dial with both telemeter and tachometer scales in a lovely blue print, black printed Breguet indices, and a blued steel Breguet handset. Powered by the Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph movement, it comes paired to a brown alligator-style leather strap with a signed, stainless steel pin buckle.

An original, 40s-era chronograph in this type of condition — let alone one with a grand feu enamel dial — would cost an arm and a leg. This is an opportunity to own one at a fraction of said leg, with automatic winding, to boot. 

Don’t pass this one up!

OVERALL CONDITION

Case is in fantastic condition overall showing light signs of wear consistent with age and use. Gloss white enamel dial with printed 'Breguet' indices and blue telemeter and 'snail-type' tachometer scales is in outstanding condition with matching blued-steel'Breguet' handset. Unsigned crown.
