I will get my March schedule in a few days. Provided I am not on call, this is an easy "yes" for me. I will come wearing Rolex but might walk out with a new Panerai if my tax return is decent.

I would be there in a heartbeat, Drew, if we didn't have basketball tickets that night. I had to take 4 tickets for that night to even us out with the others in our group.

The pleasure was mine. And my wife loves the GTGs almost as much as I do.

Never been to a GTG, hopefully I can swing it

I live in Center City West, so hopefully I could make it at for at least a short bit.
Is there a secret handshake or password? Do I have to sign-up somewhere?
Would it be weird if I brought my 2 year old daughter? (Just to the store part for a short bit).

Let me know!
Thanks

Nice pic! I ate a half cheese steak each at Geno's and Pats on the same night to do a taste test. I think they are nearly identical! Very tasty, I might add!

You right Kevin- one chops the steak-one leaves it whole - one is wiz- one is provolone. Both are great - kind of Rolex vs Omega

Sweet! Govberg is where I bought myself my first nice watch - a Seamaster Professional 2220.80. I will have to put in for a vacation day and join in, looking forward to it!

Great guys! Will begin PMs to those who express interest on this thread around March 1st. On the cheese steak front everyone has their favorite- me this - but regardless of where you go if you love them like Rolex -
