If you've never been to Vegas... get ready. It's insane.

You've never seen so many high-end timepieces in one place before... well, unless you've been to Monte Carlo.

Seriously, Vegas is a great place even for a family if you want to make a trip out of it. I'd recommend The Wynn. There's a few jewelry shops in the lobby that are impressive to say the least, and their gaming floors are top notch as are the shows on-site.

I was out there in April of this year and got to meet Carlos Santana who happens to be a huge watch collector. He's been buying for decades, and all over the world which makes for some interesting pieces. He was sporting a Lego watch the night we were together... for real. It was kick-ass! He told me all about his legendary set at Woodstock. It was surreal.

Anyway, have fun!

That's actually the spot of the last watch GTG I attended in Vegas and a perfect choice (great location to hit up a couple stores)

a grey house back to tucson and dallas wont be too tough once we blow our cash

So its april 19-22? ummm count me in. For those who have never ventured to vegas I suggest Palazzo if you want the nicest standard rooms in vegas or Wynn if you want an all around outstanding expirience

also a side note did anyone else notice this GTG will be over 4/20 o geez

Still in, not a fan of the wynn though. The shopping is great but the whole place looks like a bad acid trip, I subsequently found out that Steve Wynn designed the place himself and that he is almost completely blind. The location is also subpar. However, they do have one of the greatest ADs that I have ever seen. I still prefer the Bellagio.
