Ok - let's get this together and organize the next big GTG in Los Angeles.
I volunteered to arrange the GTG in the Socal GTG thread but I figured it was better to make a new topic just for our specific GTG.
Here's what I'm thinking...
Meet up at an agreed upon Rolex AD. I suggest Geary's in BH . I will arrange this ahead of time and see if the AD will get in some cool pieces for us all to oogle over.
THEN
We can all go to a good restaurant within walking distance of the AD. I can arrange this also - perhaps a big table or room at the Cheesecake Factory in BH, which is, in fact, the first Cheesecake Factory.
ADDED : 20/10/09
[B]OK - it's official.
Meet at Geary's on Rodeo Drive @ 10AM on Saturday, October 24th, 2009
The address is:
351 North Beverly Drive
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
After this, we will then make a stop at Westime, which is also on Rodeo Drive, and then continue on the the Cheesecake Factory on Beverly Drive for a 12:30PM lunch reservation, which I just made.
See you on Saturday!!
SO
Everyone give me your input and let me know if you are "in" and WHAT IS A GOOD DATE or time frame. Once I get this info I can go about organizing the details.

Im okay with that but there seems to be a lack of enthusiasm for an LA meet?
It may just really be the two of us? :(

Stevo..........I thought you said in the other thread it would be Tampa??
Just curious, but the biggest crowd seems like a great Idea.... Keep us posted..

I really need to get a handle on the number of attendees before I start making the arrangements. Not an exact number - but is it just going to be 5 people? I am going to bring myself and my girlfriend.

What do you mean by this? I suggest Geary's on Rodeo for the AD and Cheesecake Factory for lunch. Is that what you mean? We can do this Saturday if everyone likes that.
I also recommend that we make a stop at Westime, which is also on Rodeo Drive just down from Geary's. While they don't carry Rolex, they are the nicest and most informed watch store I've EVER been to. A lot of fun stuff to see there.

Guys, no offense, but couldn't we have this at night? I'm sure it's too late now, but I've got to work in the morning and then it's a two hour drive to get up there... you'll all be drunk by the time I arrive... (then again, you guys might all be drunk at 10:30 in the morning :chuckle: :justkiddi ). I really want to come, but thats kind of early and far away for me...

Hah. Whoops. I didn't get it. I was wondering why someone who a Rolex was worried about bus schedules but I'm not one to judge. Heck - there are watches I'd probably sell my car for :thumbsup:
