My advisor is the white dial, so I wanted some contrast. Same way the chocolate will contrast with your silver dial!!

Congrats in advance.

IS IT SAFE.....

....to store your Rolex in your hotel room OUTSIDE the room safe?

Is there anyone willing to part with the Daytona Issue of the Rolex Magazine? I have all but that one.

Looks like a fantastic time was had by all! Thanks for sharing.

A very special THANK YOU to Ito and Ana from Deutch & Deutch, we all loved our gifts and those raffle presents were very nice! Gracias for all your support, year after year; as well as your true friendship for almost 20 years.

Thank you to Tracy and Tudor for a unique experience that we all enjoyed. Attending the presentation and trying on the new Basel releases was special! We all had a great time and are excited about the new models.

Thank you to Ryan and Rolex for a beautiful first event. Starting our GTG at Rolex with your staff and trying on all those watches was the perfect way to 'let the games begin'. Thank you as well to DavidSW on Bodybump for champagne!!!! To Capital Grille: great job, thank you for a beautiful environment and great service and food!

And of course, a big thank you for Danny, the wine event was fantastic and delicious! Thank you for having us!!! Wine event went nicely with Trace's invaluable assistance, gracias for the food trays (and my present!)

Everyone who attended this year's GTG: much as gracias and safe travels. Please post your pictures and comments so we can all share our experiences.

...and the answer is YES. I started working today on the 2017 GTG.

Yessss! please start the thread!!! I'll try my best to be there next year!! Its a long way but would be great to take a few holy days!!

Ha! John Mayer did not get to try on the Bronze with two 9 on the dial and we did!

Look closely at the one on the leather strap there is a 9 at the 6 o'clock position

[BNA/LION]

This watch was probably posted already but I was impressed with this 36mm Tudor!

Approximate cost of $2,850 is a nice price point for this watch!

[Alexwwjd]

Thanks Gerardo, Thanks Danny, Thanks everyone. Hasta La Vista Vegas!!!
