Make it the full nerd experience, like Comic-Con..... attendees should dress up like the nickname/character of their Rolex.

Hanging by the pool and napping does sound SOLID. That's pretty much my wife's plans for the downtime lol.

We're getting in Thursday at 1PMish. Can't wait to meet some new faces.

Pro Tip: don’t call your watch “Batman” or “Kermit” in front of the ladies.

...trust me; once you see Chad's boxers, calling your watch Batman or Kermit is the LAST thing you will have to worry about.

Things like that often start with tequila. Just remember, no spooning.
