The Secret Service watch is pretty cool, actually. (Cooler than the TAG, IMHO) Is it quartz?

Anyone know anyone with access to the company store?

Seems to me that an American watch company like RGM has an opportunity here, making a run of Secret Service chronos for Obama and his detail.

That said, the president elect would look good with a stylier Heuer like a black Monaco reissue or a Monza. (Sadly, he doesn't seem like a vintage guy.)

P.S. It feels like a special day, so I'm wearing my Siffert
