SF Bay Area, South bay: Had a quick lunch meet with a couple of TRF'ers...

Got together with a couple of cool TRF members (prlwatch and 4srolex) for a quick lunch in Sunnyvale area at St. John's Grill. It was good food/beer and good watch discussion, cool folks to get to know and a good time overall.



In addition to what we were wearing, prlwatch brought some cool Japanese market watches: Seiko Prospex Monster SZSC005 - what a beauty - and G-SHOCK 35th Anniversary, and I brought along my newly acquired Tudor BBR which I am still excited about.



Due to short notice a few people couldn't make the time, but I am hoping for the next one we can arrange something a bit more in advance and post it up here for others to join as well (I had forgotten about this sub forum all together!)



And every thread needs some pics: (uploading them now from my phone tapatalk)

Great assortment of watches, too! I'll bring a few weirdos next time. :)

Pliny the Elder beer lived up to it's reputation! Was also my first time to try on a Deepsea D-blue not at the store, i.e., with some links removed so I could actually experience fit. Really great in the metal; just overwhelming toughness.

Thanks guys!

Thanks for getting there early and securing a booth for us.

Here is my thread about SD43 and DSSD after trying them side by side last year at the AD:

I would love to meet you guys for lunch, but I'm in the city during work hours with a limited time to lunch :(

I started another thread dinnerwise, can meet you anywhere where it's uber-able!
