Any people in Boston get together to show off their Wears?

Agreed...Some time in June would probably be best for people to align their schedules. Any ideas where??

Did this tread die or did it move to PMs? I'd love to meet up with some local people.

I would love to. Boston is great on the weekend but I'd prefer a weekday meet outside the city, like Woburn or maybe go to Burlington and see some Rolex.

That area works for me, I know Long's in Burlington but don't have much of a relationship... anyone with a connection?

Anyone have any hookups at the good restaurants (Del Friscos Grill, Bancroft, etc) for a private room?

I am interested. For me either downtown and Burlington can work.

I do not have connections in Burlington, I may be able to facilitate something in the North End (not close to ADs though).

What about a date in late September?

There's the Capital Grille or Cafe Escadrille are there is you want to spend some $$.

Tavern in the Square is also excellent.

I'm also happy to get a burger at 5 Guys.

I'm sure I can arrange a presentation at Longs. They are super nice and helpful. They would love to have a bunch or real Rolex WIS to talk about new stuff.

We can also invade the Tourneau across the street in the mall. Maybe go and laugh at the prices. Start asking them questions and see what kind of answers we get.

Looks like this thread died last year. I like the idea of a private room at the Bancroft. I may try to pull something together if there's interest.

So we have four people so far. Please keep commenting if others want in. I'm going to reach out to TonyD, who was originally planning this, to see if he wants to be involved in planning. I have a fair amount of travel coming up, but maybe we can set a date in March.

I just created a "Boston GTG" group. If you're local, please feel free to add yourself and get updates on future events. No commitments yet....

March works for me.

Burlington area works, as well as Boston. The one thing I would say, is that European Watch Co. isn't open on weekends and closes early during the week. I don't know any AD's in the city specifically, but it would be fun to sit down and just chat with the rest of you!

If anyone has the new Seadweller, feel free to bring it and enable me!

Thanks for putting it together. I live in Boston so that is obviously the easiest but I can meet in Burlington or outside the city too

I would be interested to drive up to Boston once a date and time is settled. Dinner or drinks as well?

OK, I'm going to swing by Long's in Burlington today to drop a watch off for service and I'll see if they have any interest in hosting group visit. If so, I've heard good things about the Bancroft for food, and I'll look into a private room for the group. Still early in planning, but once I have a date and a capacity for lunch, we'll need to get some firm commitments from people.

I'm thinking a week-end day would be ideal, though we'll have to see what Long's says about their availability.

Please join the Boston GTG group here if you're a Boston-area member who wants to keep up on future GTG's including this one in March!
