That's a great looking watch. I hope to buy one myself in the not too distant future.
Company founder Lorn Gifford, is a PHer.
You’re right in that they are good looking (in my view; I have the Roman bezel one, which is not to everyone’s taste). And Lorne was, indeed, a PHer; a fine generous and funny fellow too, to boot.Company founder Lorn Gifford, is a PHer.
Sadly, however, and I’m very sorry if you were unaware, Lorne passed away a while ago now
I’m really not sure what the prospects of buying a new FE might be consequently; I have never seen a used one come up but that doesn’t mean they never do.
If I wanted one now, and assuming he’s still going, best bet might be to contact Darius at the Clock Gallery. He did most of the building for Lorne and might just have the ability and parts to pull one together.
There’s over 100 out there, which is a great legacy

Sorry if I stirred up any sad emotion.
