Safe travels to all.
Really looking forward to the pictures.
If someone has a great run at the tables, will there be an Incoming Thread too?

This is exciting and a first for me; just thinking about spending the next days talking watches with all of you brings a big smile to my face. Thank you for taking time and resources and making this happen. Safe travels!

To the TRF family: during the next days (likely until sunday evening or monday morning), we will all share our experiences and opinions on this thread...so make sure you check in frequently as I expect a LOT of information to be posted here.

To everyone: thank you for allowing me this crazy idea. I hope it is the first of many. Saludos to all!
how do you sign up? I could use an excuse for vegas r&r

I'm packing as I write this!!!! Then off to bed. My first flight leaves at 0600 so that means up at 0330. Can't wait to get there and meet the other sixteen of you!
FINALLY, I'm going to be around a bunch of other WIS's, people who won't look at me like I'm crazy when I get excited about a watch! Fine watches, new friends, great food, cigars, drinks and taking it all in in PARTY city, Las Vegas! What more can you ask for? Well, I guess winning a boatload of money at one of the casino's would be a definite plus!
