Icon20 Vancouver BC GTG May10 2014 ????????????????????????????

gents and lady,

anyone interested?

starbucks beside brinkhaus on west george May 10th 11AM? browse the store a bit and talkwatch then discuss how we can get Jocke banned.

if we don't get into a fight over pcl's and non-pcl's it'll be a success.

anyone?

Any ideas on how we are going to identify each other on Saturday?
Meet at one of the outside tables? Try to spot each other based on what watch we are wearing :)

The GTG today in Vancouver today went well. It was a nice opportunity to be amongst like-minded individuals We made the best of our day and visited as many AD's as we could in the downtown area. Highlights of the day were seeing the new Seadweller 4K at two different AD's. We also, chatted watches with many sales associates and had a great time trying on all the different brands.

First thing in the morning I stopped by a book shop, on my way downtown, and picked up Casino Royal.

At Starbucks, while waiting for others to show up, I had an iced coffee.

Hey Konketsu, I will send you an invite to the Vancouver Community Social Group. That way you will receive a PM before the next GTG

I'll constantly check in this thread for future GTGs!
By the way, thinking for getting a 5513 but would need to flip my 16570.. Any advice?

Thanks everyone!

I hear you there pal. Just picked up another Hermes tie for my collection. This time a yellow Central Poule.
Going to browse around Otto freidl one day this week too. Really need to find the vintage Rolex that sings to me.
