Im actually thinking of the one I think Ed Rooney montioned on one of the threads but I can't for the life of me the name of the place. It's down around silver spring I believe. I am picking up a WUS friend in ellicott city you wanna meet there? I can drive us.

My watch buddy I am picking up lives in Ellicott City, maybe we can meet there and I'll drive us to the place and the GTG. 12 or 12:30 works for me. Let me know as I can text you his address or we can meet somewhere around there.

Im not saying anyone picked them up, but if someone happens to have them in their possession, what's it worth to you to get them back, Ash?

What would anyone want with a pair of Prada Made in Italy brown shades?

I have to be in McLean by 3:45 PM tomorrow. Maybe I could drop them off on my way if you want to PM me your contact details. Otherwise, you could stop by my office this week. I am out Monday and Friday, but I'm in Tuesday through Thursday. We're at 1100 New York Avene, NW.

I probably would have been the guy buying the glasses back from you on ebay! Once Ed replied, I figured one of you had them.

I had a blast talking with all of you and truly enjoyed seeing all of your pieces.
Also, anyone have the card of the lady that was taking pictures?

Hope to talk to all of you soon.

Here's the obligatory group photo. We guesstimated that there was about $200K worth of loot on that table when this pic was taken.



David and Ash from TRF were there. There a bunch of guys from WUS who also attended. And Jeff brought his girlfriend/fiancee (?). All in all a good time was had by all and we need to do this again in the near future.

Guys it was a real pleasure meeting all of you yesterday. It's not everyday that I can talk watches for hours on end with others that share the same passion. I got most people's contact info but if I didn't get yours please pm or email me when you can. My email is Daniel at dleeds dot com. I wouldn't mind planning fairly regular GTG's in the future.

LOL, I'm sorry about that but I'm a bit of a natural salesperson and I love those watches so it can't be helped. Rest assured that neither of those watches will produce any regrets! I'm surprised that my Maurice Lacroix doesn't get more love considering how hard I sell that thing, lol.

I visited Buddy's watch shop and he mentioned you, there were a lot nice watches there. Sunny had work so he couldn't make it either. The next GTG I hope you two can make it. Would love to check out that 16610 Comex

Sorry I did not use my camera other than the group watch shot, there were others who took photos but they are members of other forums. Next time I will be more prepared.
