    Richmond Spencer

    I note on the cloth you get with Timefactors watches that as well as Precista, Sewills, Smiths etc the name Richmond Spencer appears.

    I can't see this name on the Timefactors site - is it a watch that is no longer in production? Does anyone has any information on it?

    Thanks

    Look at the PRS-8 in this thread:

    Also note from post 1 the "RS" in "PRS" = Richmond Spencer.

    I've always had a real thing for the PRS-08. As rare as hens teeth though, so can't imagine I'll ever get my hands on one...

    First time I've looked at that, brilliant thanks.

    The Richmond Spencer is one of my favourites. It was launched in November 2002 and it took almost 5 years to sell 100 pieces. It sold for £245.

    I still have mine. Not worn often; it just seems too special to risk.
    Yes, I'm extremely cross about the daft hair on the photo I didn't see when I took it.

    That does look good (hair and all ;-) )

    Still have mine also and I very rarely wear it. Only for special occasions.

    Mine has become my "family weddings and funerals" watch.
