I know I'm on the list, Bill, but wanted everyone to know that I'll be there for sure. Wouldn't miss it.

I'd make the drive down if I wasn't going to be in Vegas at that time!

It is looking like this will be the most attended ATL GTG to date!

I’m sure Bill will post better pics soon.

It was a great turnout - over 20 is my guess and some new faces as well!

A couple of prize winners.



Thanks to a newcomer, Mr Hill (sorry I lost your first name somewhere in the phone) - he donated a wonderful book on watches. Also thanks to Chris Vail of Janis Trading Co - he donated a NATO...ummm and I snagged it with a lucky number.

And Gerardo did a FaceTime with us - but our end had some network problems.

Here’s what they sent us from the Las Vegas GTG:

Obviously I worded the “thanks” poorly and that is not Mr. Hill (who donated the book) in the picture with me.

The winner of the book in the picture is Lee Hunt.

77T, thanks for representing the Rolex Forum as it is always good to see you and your beautiful Rolex watches. Thanks for sharing the pics.

Our ATL SPRING GTG drew what may have been the largest number to date as we had 26 in attendance. Sadly we were missing several of our long-time friends, but added several new friends, including two ladies, to the gathering. As usual lots of fun, good food, great WIS and a varied assortment of fine watches. A successful event from any point-of-view. Thanks to all who came and made the GTG the great success it was.
