I've returned...

[cop414]

I've just returned from the First Annual East Coast WIS/TRF Horology Consortium,,, ummmm, in other words, two old guys who each drove about 1/2 way to meet in an obscure coffee shop to solve world problems, drink about a gallon of coffee, trade some gifts and oh yea, talk watches. Great finally meeting face to face Ken (Invictus Maneo), until next time my friend.

I wonder which watch has the correct time?

Very nice and thanks for sharing

[MonBK]

Makes me wonder about all the talk about "my watch is 5 seconds ahead" when the guy with the SS watch can't even set the time right.

We took the average between the two, sprayed that number with a little foo foo spray and poof, like magic the correct time appears!

Thanks Marc

[RichM]

Sounds like a good time. To both

[Invictus Maneo]

Well, I confess, Tim's is probably the right time ( you don't miss much, Mon!) because I know mine loses a few seconds a day and I haven't reset it for a while. I usually do it Friday night when I give it it's foo-foo bath but I guess I forgot to the last couple of times.

To be honest, I don't really worry about it too much! I just wear and enjoy my watch! Besides, someone (darn it, I forget too now! Damn old age!)moniker is "there's time and then there's Rolex Time!" But when two Rolex's are in question, I defer to the esteemed COP414, always!

Tim, it was REALLY great to finally meet you after all the PM's and phone calls! I had a blast talking watches and solving all the worlds problems with you! Now, if they'd just listen to us..........

It was a beautiful day for a small trek down to PA and Tim is an even greater guy than I thought!

Also, Marc and Danny, thank you for the kind words! Danny, it was great meeting you in Vegas! I just wish we could have spent more time together but I had other issues crop up. And Marc, you as well are "one of the good guys" and I enjoy reading your posts and appreciate you had my six the other day on "that" thread! We have to figure out a meet sometime.

Danny, if you ever want to hang, just send me a ticket to SFO.

Your absolutely right, Mike. I remembered about 0200 this morning, woke up and said'"Locutus!", then promptly fell back asleep!

[SearChart]

Looks like a great time

[Eric Chan]

Sounds like a good time was had by all, my friend.
