....so...VEGAS, here we come!!!!! I will get my plane tickets today! Gracias once again!

If you have confirmed tickets; please let me know as I will need a head count for reservations and meetings! Also, for security reasons, please do not post your flight/hotel information online. If you want to share it with other members, please PM them. As we did this year, all details will be sent via PM to confirmed members.

So far the flights from Boston ain't great, I'll check other departure cities when I get home...

And what I mean by flights aren't great is I need to talk to Mrs. Wantonebad

I've got to discuss this with Mrs. Rockrolex before making my flight and hotel reservations. I'm hoping to get there. We have relatives in LV, but we just saw them in June and they're coming to stay with us in FLA in December.

Not the date I would have liked, but obviously, the majority rules. Will need to check a couple of things and get back to you, G.

It is entirely up to you. We will have the 'official' GTG on Friday evening; and dinner/cigars/other things depending on who is there. This year I left on Monday.

Hopefully I'll make the GTG again

Hey guys, I'm very interested in joining you all for the GTG in Vegas. A few questions; is this open to all TRF members? As you can tell I am not a very seasoned member but I do have immense appreciation for all of you and the WIS community in general. My collection of watches is nowhere near as impressive as some of yours! Is an extensive collection a requirement? I'm also not a big time gambler so what kind of events or activities are planned?? And lastly, I can't make it a business trip if I fly out Friday... Anyone arriving early? Thanks in advance and I look forward to some responses. (PM is OK)

Guaranteed you will be welcomed, it's about the people more than the watches. I often feel like a hanger on around here with my collection, but know it's not an issue at all. I'm a cheap bastard and don't intend to gamble at all. I'd rather spend the time talking to others anyway. If you seem to enjoy the people on the forum make an effort to come.

This will be my first one by the way. My plan is also going to try and combine it with a buisness trip. I'm also going to try and make Hong Kong if it works out.
