Not for me. Saturday, Oct. 8 is Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the year for me.

I went to the Omega boutique there like two weeks ago, it was a yawner. Small stock, not even the watch I went to look at. L&B was nice, though, big selection of lots of brands. There is also a Montblanc store in the mall with a few watches. I even ate at Wildfire too! Never been to Lenkersdorfer, though.

Alt suggestion - Tourneau at Pentagon City, also since I've never been there. Not familiar with either area though, I'll be heading down from MoCo. Not many ADs up here, but L&B in Montgomery Mall had a nice selection. More Omega's than the boutique!

I would also prefer an different date than Oct. 8 if it comes to that, since I have to attend a birthday party that day.

My 2 cents.

I am sorry Vernal, these things end up being majority rules and its always impossible to get everyone to agree on the date. I will let you know of the next GTG and hope you can make that one.

In case it is not too late to consider, there is a WWT watch show in Towson, MD scheduled for October 28 and 29. We organized a TRF GTG during the WWT show in Ft. Mitchell. KY in 2010 and 2011.

Oh man, I wish I would have known that when I bought my DSSD from them. Small world.

Thanks Yazo.
