I am watching it also. I went the last two years but could not make it this year. I went to breakfast this morning wearing my 2008 hat, 2009 windbreaker and Stainless Daytona.

Have it on now, been following the entire series. Hope the Flying Lizard team takes it - I would be surprised if they didn't, or at least had a Porsche capture one of the top spots.

Was supposed to go with my dad, but looks like our first child is going to arrive a month early. I got some pretty bad looks for even entertaining the trip...I guess it worked out the way it was supposed to. I'll be there next year.

For those that have been, is there a Rolex "store" on site? I'm sure he found it today if there is...if not I'd like to let him know where it is.

No, there is no Rolex store on site. There are lots of hats, shirts and jackets at the souvenir stores though.

Other than the engraving on the caseback? It's basically the same.

And the gigantic presentation box with ROLEX on the inside of the lid. Shows up better on TV.
