Saw the first picture and thought you had that awesome bezel battle scar at 10 o'clock removed. Saw it in the second pic and thought "ahhh, there it is..."

Battle scars add character to watches. I know it's mine when I see that flaw. Hahaha.

I really can't believe nobody else here is going.

How about all those AP Rubens Barrichello, Jarno Trulli, Montoya, Schumacher and AP Grand Prix owners??? I can take your watches for you so they can see the track and feel their environment for the first time.

I had planned to, but didn't want to swing 3k/night for a hotel, and really didn't want to stay 3 or 4 hrs away either...

I am in Austin but will be watching this one from the couch. Been to Indy in 06 and Montreal twice but not in a huge rush to fight what I think might be some bad traffic. Should be a great show at a great facility though.

Austin traffic is horrendous, add 300K more people and it's going to be a headache!

x2, I am always interested in the opinions of F1 in the states. F1 has a lot of competion with NASCAR Indy ALMS GrandAM being so popular stateside. One problem is that there are no American F1 drivers on the grid at the moment.

This should be rule #1 to owning a F1 inspired watch, if ya can't go we'll take it for you!
