Any GTG's in SoCal?

How about somewhere in the middle? That would be OC.

A few in LA

And some in San Diego

Not easy if you ask me . . .

So what place do we agree on ?

And next question . . . where, when and who will arrange it ?

Then there's Fashion Island in Newport Beach which would be a nice meetup spot, andhas Traditional Jewelers who is a Rolex AD. But TJ is also an AD for AP, ALS, JLC, IWC, OMEGA, Panerai, Breitling, Cartier, Bell and Ross, Patek, and a few other brands I'm probably missing. They just moved to a bigger retail space a week or two ago, too. You all should check that place out if you haven't been there before.

If this appeals to you, please PM me and we will see what will work

I think Fashion Island would be a great place to meet, especially if someone can setup something with Traditional Jewelers. Does anyone know a manger there that could maybe give us a brief tour?
We could then eat at Mastros or somewhere nice for dinner and talk watches....

I would lead this (I actually organize a local C&C) but don't really have any watch connections yet. I'd be happy to help in any way. Let's get this going and pick an upcoming Sat, maybe early Sept?

Good to see you over here from m5board. There are a handful of us over here on TRF.

I'd be in for an OC GTG.

Mastro's is always a safe bet. We've held m5board dinners with the OC/SD guys in the past.

Flemming's in Fashion Island is also not bad. I've hosted events there, as they have a private dining room downstairs and smaller rooms in the back of the main dining area.

Doing well, but been traveling a bunch for work. Yaphet keep trying to get us to come up for one of your Exotics meets, but I always seem to be out of town.

I'm going to try to make it to the 9/6 GTG at Karl Strauss.
