PRINCETON NJ. GTG - Feb or Mar 2014

Interest in GTG -Princeton! Stones throw from historic Old Nassau Hall. Easy in and out and easy parking. Perhaps late Feb early Mar. Plenty a Rolex has been sold in this town. Weekday or Weekend evening. Nassau Inn Tap Room (Beautiful Mind with Russell Crowe vibe) around 7pm. Interest/thoughts? Relaxed evening meet and greet no agenda food/drink pay as you go.

Good to here! Watchflair you did a fine job on the NYC gtg - sorry to have missed it. Place looked great and nice turn out - loved the pics. Wasn't sure if any of you guys would be interested in this one so soon after. If you have the contacts and have the time let them all know. Princeton is pretty cool great shopping and restaurants easy to move about. Tours of the university run on the hour (my recollection). Hamilton Jewelers is directly across from the main gates and has been at the same location / AD for over 50 years. A Thurs or Sun. would work for me and I liked your time in NYC - 7pm.

Sunday February 16th would be great. (Thurs the 13th - ok as well) University orange key tours run on Sundays at 1:30 and 3:00pm and are free. Hamilton Jewelers is open until 5:00pm nice selection of Rolex, PP and JLC.

I might be able to make it to something like this. Princeton is a bit of a hike for me, but it's a beautiful town. If anyone owns a Nautilus 5711/1A-010 (blue) and can show it to me at the GTG, then I'll definitely be there. :P Been trying to find out what it looks like in person for ages.

I would be interested in this GTG. I was unable to make the NYC one due to previous commitments. Depending on the date I would enjoy going to one of these GTG events finally!

During the week tends to work better for me since I have too many children! LOL! Hamilton Jewelers is a very nice AD. I have bought several watches from them. They used to be an AP AD but lost that about a year ago. I haver never been to the Nassau Inn Tapping Room but it looks great in the picture. Anyone have a proposed date?

February works for me on either a Thursday evening or a Sunday. This would be my very first gtg, so I would love to attend.

Kind of like NYC. Someone just needs to pick a date and settle into it.

If it's toward the middle-end of March, I can also talk to the crew over at Hamilton as they know me pretty well. That way they can be prepared when we have a group that goes in.

Ok - a couple of things have been put forward. I think the whole point of this is to get the most people to turn out as possible. For those who have posted to this point or others now considering - IT'S DOWN TO THE FOLLOWING-
1) Sunday Feb 23rd or March 23rd
2) Princeton or Center City Philadelphia
MOST VOTES BY SUN FEB 16th WINS

So what's the word.... I think the Princeton location is good. Centralized location that may get more people to come.
