I will have to make some travel plans around the USA if I come over for this meet up, it would be a waste to just go to Vegas for just a few days!

Anyone any recommendations? Miami, so cal?

Colorado.

Many options in the US, but consider that East Coast is a good 4-5 hour flight from Vegas

Correct! Unless your flight gets canceled and you have to connect through L.A. then it's 8 hrs!

I think this is what TRF is really all about.
Well done Gerardo and everyone that was part of this definitive TRG GTG.
I think the next one will be monumental in TRF history based upon the comments posted in this thread.
Gerardo should be knighted on TRF for his efforts in bringing this together

X 100 to you Gerardo.

There are 20 signed up for 2016 so far.....join in!

I ask the Moderators if he can be classified as a " TRF Master"" ?
We use this phrasing in Medical Societies to recognize those members whose efforts/ achievements are outstanding.

Any thoughts?
Best TRF thread ever, IMHO.

Yes - at a minimum this should be awarded!!

One question; did anyone buy a watch while at the GTG?

There was a whole lot of enablement going on......don't think anyone left with one. We will see what happens in 2016.

As an aside, we added three to the family stable. The GTG and friendships begun there have definitely contributed to the enjoyment of the brand.

I do not remember if on the spot, but I do know several purchases were decided during the GTG (we tried a huge number of timepieces and had contact with general managers, so contacts were established

)
