E.F. Bowman Watches by RGM

Press Release

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

RGM Watch Co. reintroduces E.F. Bowman watches as part of its high-grade watch offerings. Linking past and present

(USA, Mount Joy, PA) September 2026 –

E.F. Bowman has a long history here in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania; in fact, RGM’s Roland Murphy attended the Bowman Technical School in the early 1980’s. It’s a natural fit for RGM to revive the historic name on watches created in Pennsylvania once again.

The first watch is Model 501-EFB, constructed using timeless techniques that were used in fine mechanical watches of the past, like the original American E. F. Bowman pocket watches of the late 1800s.

The 1920s Patek Philippe pocket watch pictured below, which Patek Philippe originally made for Ezra F. Bowman & Sons, inspired the unique enamel dial and blued steel hands of the new Model 501-EFB wristwatch.

The inspiration - A 1920s Patek Philippe pocket watch made for Ezra F. Bowman & Sons

The watch will debut September 25th 2026, during Lancaster Watch Weekend. www.lancasterwatchweekend.com
