A GTG in San Francisco, Ca.
Met up with some of the usual suspects & a couple of new ones (from TRF, WUS, & TZ) today @ Lefty O'Doul's in San Francisco (sorry had a few beers
 & forgot to take a pic of the outside) on left.....from front to back....Bobby(sntangerbg), Mike(softwaredrone), me(Dr. Robert) & Ted (old blue) on right....front to back....Austin, Bill(speed), Dave, Eugene(fusionstorm) we'd seen each other's watches @ previous GTG's, so the "table shot" is of the watches we wore......  Hung out drank & ate, Lefty's is a decent venue for a GTG..... then went over to Tourneau/Rolex & were treated very nicely by staff.....p.s. they had decent stock, daytonas, new ceramic daytonas, new ex2's, new subs, more tool watches than the last time I was there.

Glad to finally put a face on some names!
 It's nice to know you guys had a good time, I hope you party'd like it's 1999!

Thanks for organizing Bob. Looking forward to seeing your Sub - once you get it back from servicing.
Loved Eugene's Red Sub and Dave's vintage DJ and Turnograph as well. Next time we can try a different type of "cuisine" I think we've beat Irish to death  BTW Sam, it's a Pork Pie, not a bowler! |

Lefty O'Doul's is a great place for that
I use to stay around the corner at the Hotel St. Francis and frequented Lefty's a lot-- |
