We're pleased to offer free and easy to use solutions that help make sure any fraud concerns can be resolved quickly. Before your trip, we recommend that our traveling Card Members do the following:



Download the Amex Mobile app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and enable Push notifications. This will allow us to alert you of potential fraudulent activity on your account and, in many cases, allow you to resolve concerns instantly.



Confirm your current mobile phone number is on file by logging into your account online. This will allow us to reach you quickly, should any concerns arise.


They're watching, always! Make sure you have approval for a large purchase from Rolex while you're there.

Hello! As soon as I resolve a 'power' issue. We drove yesterday to the condo, my wife and myself use the same laptops, we both packed our computers, but NONE did the power adapter

...so, today, batteries are dead, closest BestBuy is 30 miles away. Oh, forgot to mention this: as you can imagine, it is MY fault.

I'm getting excited! 👍

Trying to grow a long beard to get the "beard discount" at Rolex this year. Unfortunately, I still can't grow facial hair. 😂

Just making sure there weren't other TRF-isms required like Tumi luggage or a Faure le Page wallet — (was being tongue in cheek, of course).

Guys, since my new DJ41 won't be in by the GTG (Barring a miracle), will I be allowed in if I wear this on my wrist?

Weather looks like it will be nice and warm. We arrive on Wed and I am thinking about taking our crew to the Steely Dan concert Wednesday night. Tracking some cars on Thursday and we are doing Cirque Du Soleil Michael Jackson on Sunday night. Play some golf the following week. And of course all the watch festivities on Friday and Saturday which will be the highlight of my trip. Really looking forward to seeing everyone. The itinerary looks exciting

Thanks G for all the effort. You have worked hard to put this all together

I have a reservation for Friday and Saturday at Treasure Island, right in the middle of all the action. I don't need it because I'm staying else where. If anyone is interested before I cancel it next week PM me for information. Very good price for the area 1 king bed but possible change to 2 bed

You can bring wine... Just get a bubble pack or warp it in some shirts and check your luggage in. I take 2-3 bottles with me on short trips all the time.
