Does anyone plan to bring stuff or just to wear one?
I am planning on bringing a few pieces. A few others I know are going to as well.

Hard to believe I missed this thread - please put me down as a tentative to the lounge et al but skipping dinner. May take the T into town from RI - weather dependent.

Tony, Both are nice choices but the meteorite Daytona sounds particularly awesome if u ask me.

I go to school in TN and I'm just home for a few days, so I'll only have one watch on me for the gtg. Most likely it will be the Explorer II. Potentially the 14060M but I'm leaning towards the Exp.

I look forward to meeting all of you!

Guys-

Sounds and looks like a great turnout. I have been following the thread but have known for awhile I would not be able to attend. Family first, my son has a club soccer tourney in Manhattan, NYC this weekend and I will be there. I wish you all a good time and the places that are lined up are sure not to disappoint!

Steve, family always comes first. I'm sure you will have just as much fun with your family in NYC. There will always be next time!

Hey Tony, what if you bring the 233 and your Daytona? You can wear one on each wrist. Two awesome pieces you got there my friend

Remember in 1982 when people wore 5 or 6 Swatch watches up the arm? I used to link them together buckle of one to the strap of the next and make a chain. Maybe I'll do that?

Hey guys, I'm going to be a little late. I'll probably be in town around 3. I'll swing by the M Bar to see if you guys are around. If not I'll catch up with you guys at Ross and Simons. See you soon!!!
