Default Nice find today Rockford 21j gr 910 marked RG

This weekend is "First Monday" at Canton Tx. I always get there early and usually find one or two good buys in the "cheap section"

Well something with a 6 in the seconds dial caught my eye and said look at me.

Anyway needs a new case but it is my only 21j 18s.

Does RG mean Railroad Grade.

Oh yea it is adjusted to 5p.

S/N is 539805

I just love junk hunting.

Nice find! RG does mean Railroad Grade. I would bet it is one of the later 18 size RR Rockfords because the number of adjustments(5) are stated rather than just saying "adjusted", Whats the serial#? Any chance of a scan?

Cary,

Nice find. The 910 is a very nice watch. If you get it running right, and put it in a case you can wear, I think you will become adicted to 18 size watches.
