Met a lot of great people and everyone was just so cool......thanks again Larry and the guys/girls at D's Time Service for making it happen.....but man the trf guys/girls know how to party....I just hope everyone got back safely as I barely came home unscathed. A tale for another day indeed. Good night! Safe travels everyone.

Good morning everyone from last night.
First, a shout out to Larry for including me in my first ever GTG. Came down from OC with my gal to join the group for dinner. You put together a great group. I cannot say enough kind things about all the fantastically cool and genuine people we got to share the evening with. A fantastic dinner and wine (thanks Trace). Thanks again all. |

An excellent day and evening with a great group of TRF-ers, several of whom brought better-halves.
Thanks to D's Time (Tom) for hosting the day's event. And dinner was fantastic. The food, the drink, and most of all, the company. I got to put many names and faces to TRF handles. A big thanks goes to Larry for organizing both the day and the night and for the cake (I felt like we got a little taste of what his wedding was like!). And another big thanks goes to Trace for generously providing endless wine at dinner. And thanks to Wayne for the chocolates - they hit the spot. And one more SD GTG 2017 / comic-con wrist shot.

Great Job Larry, looks like a beautiful day in San Diego. Beautiful watches, Trace reps Las Vegas, looks like Steven wearing his new favorite watch and the legend Tony G was there.
Beautiful wrist shots D's Time service is top notch, very nice of Tom. Gas Lamp ?? Missing food pictures We have Star Trek Convention in August here. Lots of pointy ears running around and I'm pretty sure they keep their costumes on when they head to rooms lol for the after parties. It's kinda funny

So I'm now in Orange County for brunch with friends.....got home at 2 am and woke up at 6:45 to play tennis and came up here straight afterwards.....had such a great time, I'm just glad to see everyone make it back....it was a zoo at the valet when I tried to leave...absolute borderline riot insanity. Big props to Larry organizing and for his generosity on drinks/etc, Steve also was very generous with the party favor watch case as well as drinks, Wayne and Stacey brought the chocolate game, of course Trace with that ridiculously good pinot also...thank you my friend for the generosity, and everyone brought the A game in terms of watches (especially Paul, good negotiator when he's getting you drunk). Fine group of people and I had a great time. Look forward to the next one gents.

What a great time! From the event at D's Time Service, to dinner at Greystone Steak House, all of it was just tons of fun! It was great meeting new faces, as well as seeing the usual cast of characters as well! Cya next year San Diego!
Did I see Paul leave with Wonder Woman!?

Wow! What a great day/night. Awesome to hang out with some quality TRF members. The guys were cool but the Wives were cooler. Not only do they put up with our WIS ways, they were all beautiful, intelligent and fun, just amazing ladies!
It was my pleasure to arrange things. Everyone did something to add to the memories we made together and I thank you for that. I am truly looking forward to continuing the great relationships I have made and making new ones. What a great time!

I wish I would have taken pictures. I have two before the event. The box of wine I received from Trace for the dinner and the cake we got from The French Gormet.

I think Stephen didn't wear his new green sub in that wrist picture shot. Maybe his plat .. hmmm . Maybe he's not in the pic. No plat Daytona in the picture. And he only brought his plat watch to gtg leaving his 116610LVc at home ? Interesting

To everyone who attended I wanted to make sure you know our server Abby was very kind to us at the end of the night. The Sommelier was very pleased to have met Trace and been introduced to he family's vineyard/wines. We left his a few bottles of wine and Abby got the remaining 1/2 cake. This like contributed to the reason why she did not charge us any corkage fees or a cake slicing fee! O' the other factor was our group was cool and fun too!
Feel free to leave a positive note for the Greystone Steakhouse and Abby on; Yelp, Tripadvisor, Google, Facebook or Open table. PS- If you took any pictures please post them...

Mark, you have a sharp eye! As Larry said, I switched it up for the evening's festivities. Hulk by Day and Platona by Night! Larry had an equally dynamic duo on display.
