That’s a fair point. And I’ve thought a lot that.

I’ll reach out. I’ll let you know what happens.

Thanks Seth, please do as I'm the only one who cares and I want the watch before it gets vintage.

Ok. I can’t confirm definitively yet. But it looks like this might happen.

So far, my plan is to gather three TRF members. At least one needs to be a non raffle member. The more witnesses the better.

I’ll meet them 30 minutes before the GTG in the mall somewhere and use:

Anyone willing to help, please advise. I’d also like to film the process so there can be zero discrepancies. No faces, just the actually number generation.

I didn't make it in time for the raffle, so I'm your "non-raffle" member, I can be there early, and I know how to operate a camera

As an aside, that’s one of my favorite scenes, in any movie ever.

And awesome. Thanks for your help brother.

Still getting final approval on my plan.

But any other TRFers that want to be a witness, please respond here. We will meet 30 minutes before the GTG in the mall.

Exact location will be determined by how many witnesses want to join. The more the merrier.

How do you know if you are in the raffle?

I seem to have heard things about this, but only recall snippets. Is the prize a SD43?

Do you have to be a red pledge to be eligible to win the watch? I must have been absent that day.

But if you need our help, let us know and we’ll help.

You do have to be a red pledge member to be eligible. You and Chadri not being involved actually works good.

I’ll comfirm if this plan is a go.

Thanks my friend.

Yes, like me my friend, you missed the cut off. So you'd make for a great witness and of course it'd be nice to catch up early

Ok, Seth and Chad let us know where to meet.

I think that the SD43 is too big for me. If it was a Daytona C, CHNR or Pepsi, I would be more disappointed about my ineligibility.

Bev won a watch winder at the last GTG, so we’ll root for someone else to win.

Never knew of this raffle until someone mentioned it a couple of days ago. I don’t qualify, and my Sub is all the dive watch I need. Now, if it was a pre C stainless steel Daytona? Ohhh, I’d be in on that.

Looks like the drawing will be on.

But we do need as many member witnesses as possible.

Please do advise if you can join 30 moms early.

Thankscall.
