Wish I was in NYC also, but the Hodinkee crew always take plenty of great photos. So at least we'll have that to look forward to!

We have something more "elitist" -> Rolex Passion Meeting.
Unfortunately it's a "closed" user group...

or better: My Collection is not meeting the criterias to get invited

I'm waiting for the pictures

In Europe on vacation, otherwise I wouldn't have mind taking a little roadtrip to NYC for this event. Enjoy David!

Waiting on the confirmation, too. We should have some sort of signal, to signify TRF members!

I'm an hour or more train ride to NYC, so I was asking for details so I may attend. Nothing in reply still and it's Sunday night. Will we be alerted early enough Monday or is it a super select group that no newbs are welcomed? Common courtesy of a reply of any kind goes a long way, don't you think guys?

Hey everyone it appears the event has so many RSVP's and it's taking longer than normal to respond. I was told the location will be announced tomorrow around mid day. Sorry for the inconvenience.
