I've been wanting a 21 jewel Rockford watch for a long time, but I always ger outbid. Probably because I'm either too cheap or too poor, depending. Amazingly I won an ebay auction on a running Rockford 545 21 jewel watch for $185, which seems kinda low. It's what I had to spend so whooppee!!!

I picked up this nice example from Buster this summer, movement serial # 620632, ca. 1903. Price was about half again what you paid, and I still think I got a really nice deal.
Wish there were more of these 16s open face Rockford RR watches on the market. I've seen a few 645s recently on the flea, but they always seem to be in crappy condition and/or overpriced.
