Bump!!

Yazo · 15 May 2010, 04:56 AM

Not sure if we can, but maybe a post in the general section? I know there's a TON of people from DC in TRF, but not sure how many of those people browse the GTG sub forum....

I'm still on board though!!!

Great. Are you bringing your fiancee?

TheDude · 15 May 2010, 09:38 AM

Put me down as a maybe. I'll try to make it.

FWIW, that place is near the "Archives" stop on the Metro (Green Line). Parking is awful in DC.

I'll need a confirmation at least a couple of days in advance so I can make the reservation.

And will you be bringing anyone if you do come?

The restaurant is actually conveniently located between the Chinatown/Gallery Place exit on the Red/Yellow/Green lines (walk south on 7th Street about 3 blocks) and Archives/Navy Memorial (walk north on 7th Street about 3 blocks).

OK. Who else is coming?

I will likely come alone. I'll let you know in advance when I solidify my plans.

Archives looks a bit closer than Chinatown/GP...

If you get out at the Verizon Center exit (7th & F Sts), it's about the same distance to Oyamel (7th & D Sts) as Archives. 2 blocks either way.

Rockrolex · 20 May 2010, 03:47 AM

The DC GTG is next week, Tuesday, May 25, to be exact.

Can I get a head count of who will be there?

So far, we have:

Ashley
Rockrolex (and Mrs. Rockrolex)
Yazo (with fiancee?)

Those are definites.

Maybe is:

TheDude.

Anyone else? Confirmations, please, so I can make the reservation.

Rockrolex · 24 May 2010, 12:50 AM

OK, people. Ashley is in town and I need a final head count for Tuesday's GTG at Oyamel. Reservations will be made for 7:00 PM.

If TRF goes down again, e-mail me at ekessler43@verizon.net

TheDude · 25 May 2010, 03:17 AM

TheDude is confirming. I'll be there.

TheDude · 25 May 2010, 06:01 AM

I am not bringing anyone. I got a note from someone asking me to state one way or the other.

Rockrolex · 25 May 2010, 06:04 AM

OK. Here's the list:

Ashley
Rockrolex (and Mrs. Rockrolex)
Valentine plus 1
TheDude
Yazo

We will either be 7 or 8.

I tried to make a reservation, but they didn't have any available for a party our size. The manager said to come early and we shouldn't have to wait more than 30-45 minutes. I will plan to get there at 6:30 PM and put my name on the waiting list. That should get us a table by 7:30 PM.

See you all tomorrow night.

ducatidoc · 25 May 2010, 11:31 AM

Sorry, David, I can't make it to York. We have to be in NYC over that weekend and mid-week is out for me. We'll be looking for lots of pics from that GTG as well.

TheDude · 26 May 2010, 01:51 PM

Great GTG tonight! It was awesome meeting everyone!

valentine · 26 May 2010, 02:04 PM

awesome PICS!!!!!!!!!! thanks so much! we had a BLAST!!!!!!!

Ashley · 26 May 2010, 03:33 PM

Have to add a few more. It was a wonderful time tonight, guys. Thank you

Never mind, I need to resize them. Photos to come tomorrow

Rockrolex · 26 May 2010, 10:22 PM

We were a small (6 people) but lively group. The food was good, the drinks were better, and the conversation continuous and stimulating. It's always great to put faces and names to the forum handles. Ironically, three of the four Rolexes at the meet turned out to be GMTs. I GMT-II and 2 GMT-IIc's. What does that tell you about the popularity of that model.

Here is my only contribution to the pics.

Left to right: GMT-IIc; Ladies Oyster; GMT-IIc, Piaget Polo, GMT-II. Notice all the GMTs are black bezel, black dial SS models. Nothing fany, but highly useful watches.

Ashley · 27 May 2010, 12:27 AM

Okay, here are a few photos :)

We tried cricket! Here is Arleen's reaction-face

What a fantastic time!

B Square · 27 May 2010, 12:43 AM

What a wonderful GTG

Great food, friendship, watches, and three beautiful young ladies. It doesn't get any better. Thank to all for sharing the photos

GerardoG · 27 May 2010, 01:15 AM

Great pics! Looks like you had a great time!!!

Yazo · 27 May 2010, 07:37 AM

Damn work! I'm pissed I missed it - looked like a blast!

TheDude · 27 May 2010, 09:46 AM

Yes it was. And I hope no one had any contaigous diseases since we all sampled that one taco.

The consensus was that it tasted like very salty chicken strips. Good to try once. Now we can say that we've all eaten grasshopper.

Oh right, grasshopper. As if there is much difference, they are both pretty gross when you think about it!

Sose · 5 August 2010, 09:14 AM

I'm very sorry I missed this as I was not a member of the forum then.

How about we try and get another one going Rockrolex?
I have no problem taking an active lead on a new DC GTG if you'll assist me.
Shall we?
