I'll actually be in LA (La Brea) that weekend. I was planning on dropping off my 16013 at the RSC on Fri., 08Nov, though. I'll be Rolex-less for the GTG :(

I would love to attend. Live close and would love to meet some local watch folks. I know South Beverly Grill well as I designed 10 other restaurants for the same owner. Really great people. Had lunch there today. Used to do the Panerai GTG’s in the old days.

Place:

The South Beverly Grill
122 S. Beverly Drive
Beverly Hills, CA 90212
Phone: (310) 550-0242

Time: 11:30 a.m.

The South Beverly Grill Lunch Menu:

https://hillstone.com/menus/southbev...n=v-1571171074

I have been told by RF Members that the Sushi is very good. I know the French Dip is.

If anyone has any Rolex or watch related swag and wants to participate in a Give-A-Way, Please, bring an item or two for the GAW.

The items do not need to be expensive or elaborate. In the past, we have had bottles of watch cleaner/cloths, Rolex Magazines, watch related magazines/books, green Rolex watch bags, watch rolls, catalogs, or anything fun that is watch related.

Basically, something that is no longer of interest to you, or is excess to your needs, will be appreciated by someone else.

This is done on an entirely volunteer basis, so show up even if you do not have anything to share.

Mark was a master at getting cool stuff for the GTG. I do not have his connections, so it will be a group effort.

Who can come? Anyone that has an interest in watches. Friends, family members, anyone, and everyone is welcome.

Hello everyone... Local to La area and would like to join the GTG. My first time and fairly new to the forum. Awesome idea. Not sure if I have anything to put into the give-a-way as Im new into the Rolex world. I own a performance motorcycle race shop locally and could put something in from that, if desired?

Thanks and looking forward to this!

Well, it is getting close! Nine days and a wake-up.

Larry, the other Larry, BNA/LION, has really come through for us! He sent me some watch booklets, magazines, and some dew-das!

It is always fun to have a GAW at the GTG, so if anyone has anything to contribute, please bring it! Also, let me know in advance if you can.

Larry,
I am digging through my stuff and will come up with a few things to add for the drawing. For sure I have the Rolex Explorer edition magazine and a green Rolex service pouch.

Great news, Mike! That will be great.

One more week and the fun begins!

I have PM'D Steve about doing the Sky-Dweller Drawing. He has given me the go ahead!

I have just finished the list Steve posted and converted it to Excel, so it is in numerical order. I was pretty good at the old Excel, I find the new one challenging!

If memory serves, this will be the first time in a while, if ever, it has been done on the west coast. I can hardly wait.
