***Official 2014 Boston GTG***
Well it looks like spring may finally be here, and our Boston GTG is less than 2 weeks away! Its been a long winter for sure and it will be nice to get out and meet up with fellow TRF members and do the "watch thing." I've reached out to Nathan over at Shreves and told him to expect us around 3ish. I will put in a call tomorrow to Steve @ Lux and let him know we will stop by there around 4ish. If someone has a good camera please bring it! We will want to take lots of great pics like last time (Thevenin?).
We will be meeting up on Saturday April 12th @ 1:30 @ the M Bar @ the Mandarin Oriental (upper Boylston). Here's who's attending so far...if I missed you or you would like to attend, just post so on this thread,... LordNinja Bdel hennabav TonyD DatejustRyan Thevenin jimmyk2014 BealeAss See everyone soon! Coach

Thanks for setting this up Clark! My good friend, Josh, from European Watch Co may also join us. Maybe we can stop by his place as well if we decide to. He will probably join us as at the bar and then meet us up for dinner later since he has to work in between. Let me know if that works.

Hey Jon! Sounds good to me buddy! We can check out European and then walk down Newbury to Shreves and then scoot on over to Lux. I figured we can play dinner by ear. See who comes and who plans on staying. Unless you think we should make reservations somewhere.

Flying on the red-eye the night before, going to try and make it, will do my darnedest. If I don't make it have a blast everyone, sounds like it's going to be a fun day!!

Turns out I'll be in Boston this weekend so I'll be there! Not sure if I can do dinner, but I'll be there for at least the first half of the GTG. Looking forward to seeing some familiar faces and meeting some new people too. I'll try to bring a few pieces with me this time as well.

I was looking forward to being there; seems like work has gotten in the way. It could still work out however.

Great time at the GTG....cool guys and lots of awesome watches to check out...European Watch Co. graciously hosted the second act, too bad I had to take off after that.
