That would be cool, Passin'. Bring it. It's a little Star Treky for me, so I'll watch over Wes's shoulder.

We can run your Seamaster through its' paces. Only takes 30 seconds and then you tell me what you think of it. Actually, I think it's pretty cool and very portable and I assume accurate, and a way to tell if your watch is in need of a tuneup or overhaul......but now that I think of it, there may be a problem running the scope on a coaxial movement. Someone who knows more about watches than me please chime in.

Yes, it's my own little tricorder to scan a watch a tell if it is ill. Just call me Bones.

Gee, Paul. I don't know. We were counting on you to bring the new DJ. Without that, you may have to sit in the back near the kitchen door. Tell you what. Buy a Yachtmaster-II or a white gold GMT ceramic and all will be forgiven.

D Minus 7

One week to go, gentlemen, and I have yet more good news. Our generous B.H. GTG-ers have donated a few more items to the raffle. Hearty thanks are owed to them. Also, one of our group has arranged an exclusive visit for us at a nearby jeweler. Anyone who wants to go can add it to our after lunch itinerary. I am not at liberty to say too much about this, but it should be very cool.

Beautiful patina! I especially like the white dial with black lettering and numerals.
Sized perfectly for your wrist. You wear it well.
Can't wait to see it! :-)

I'm hearing some good backchannel chatter. Beverly Hills GTGers are really pulling together to make this event special. Awesome is still the operative word.

Hope you guys are ready to rock.

So looking forward to it.

You might as well, Paul. Everyone else will be wearing their pajamas. I've got some Batman p.j.s that I've been saving for this occasion.

11:30 a.m. is the start time.

Paul- I'll let you know if I can make it. If so, I'll pick you up at your place in the morning...

No men wear pajamas in my car!

Change In Time

The Grill now opens up at 11: 00 AM. I called and confirmed. If we show up at 11:30 the booths will probably be gone.

I have called and made a reservation for one booth and was not allowed to make another. We need three more people to call and make a reservation for the other three tables.

This is where we meet.

I'll call tomorrow to make a reservation for another booth. And, for the raffle, I'll be bringing my duplicates of some recent issues of The Rake magazine.

Can't wait to meet everyone!
