Subject: [Leica] Amewrican watch question?

Hi
Was wondering if there is currently a watch company manufacturing movements 
in the United States? I know there are American owned watch companies like 
Hamilton, but they are mostly case designers and labelers using Swiss or 
Japanese movements. Any info is greatly appreciated.

PS: I have joined you M3 nuts. I just bought and finished fixing this little 
number from Alkit-Pro.
Didn't even have to pull the top!

It's in pretty nice shape factory sealed , no dents, one tiny edge nick and 
full vulcanite on the sleeve. It's the only M3 version I'll look at - angled 
eyelets, SS PV ST. found in the high 900K or 1M+ range. Now to find a use 
for it!

Congratulate me!
