Absolutely agree. We all had a great time. You can't beat a weekend with excellent food and drink, all kinds of great watch stuff and, above all, a terrific group of people. Kudos to Gerardo and Ito and hs whole gang at Deutsch and Deutsch.

Yes, very fun. It was nice to meet such a diverse group of people with a common interest. And the overall kindness, and generosity was top notch.

Highlights included:
1) dinner with gerardog on Thursday evening at Cattlemans. (very trusting on both accounts, ha!)
2) and then of course the great dinner at Anson 11. I had never seen or held a Patek before!
3) Thanks to Jefe1999 for the ride back to the airport, first time ever in a sports car nonetheless a porsche.
4) The raffle for the wine gifted for the TRF, I conceited my opportunity so one of Rolex Managers could be uncontested champion.
5) The presentation by Miguel, the watchmaker.
6) Free timing, and pressure testing on my BLNR.

Very fun.

No, just a really long steep downgrade in the NM mountains.

Awesome GTG, I can't believe I missed it. I'll have to check TRF more frequently. The video recap was great.
