I just wrote a simple mapping to do what I needed and put it in my .vimrc:

if has("gui_running")
    " Reposition gvim when using the windows extended monitor
    " Top and bottom

    nnoremap <Leader>fx <C-O>:exec 'winpos '.(getwinposx()<0 ? '15' :
'15').' '.(getwinposy()<0 ? '17' : '-1192')<CR>
    " This version will change the font size (since it is bigger) and move
the screen.
    " Had to record the X and Y positions since set guifont= will cause the
    " screen to move under certain cirumstances.
    nnoremap <Leader>fx :let winx = getwinposx()<CR> \| :let winy =
getwinposy()<CR> \| :exec 'set guifont=Bitstream_Vera_Sans_Mono:h'.(winy<0
? '11' : '11').':b:cANSI'<CR> :echomsg 'executing winpos '.(winx<0 ? '15' :
'15').' '.(winy<0 ? '17' : '-1192')<CR> \| :exec 'winpos '.(winx<0 ? '15' :
'15').' '.(winy<0 ? '17' : '-1192')<CR>
    " Left and right monitors
    " nnoremap <Leader>fx :exec 'winpos '.(getwinposx()<1900 ? '2055' :
'276').' 14'<CR>
    " nnoremap <Leader>fx <C-O>:exec 'winpos '.(getwinposx()<1900 ? '2055'
: '276').' 14'<CR>
endif


Now, I used -1192, since in my latest desk configuration my extended
monitor is "above" my laptop.  So, these are negative values.

But the easiest thing to do is simply start Vim.  Move Vim where you want
it and then run this:
:echo getwinposx() getwinposy()

HTH,
