lol, what I meant was, do "they" plan to meet Dec 7?
I can't make Dec 7, I'm busy. I could do the 6th, though .... edit, actually, it won't matter if you mean tomorrow or the 7th, can't do either. D'oh!

I could probably meet up on 12/6, but it would need to be about 8 or so. My shop closes at 6 pm… but I need to do all the closing things… i.e. load everything in the safe.

Well the next time I am in Detroit to visit with relatives, I will put the word out a day or so earlier and whoever shows will be great, I will want to see some watches, eat a good meal, smoke a good cigar, drink a few great bourbons and have a jolly god time with my fellow Rfers :)
I stayed 5 days at the Renaissance center in Detroit over Thanksgiving, plenty of cool places to meet... next time perhaps...

Saw this thread for the 1st time. Would love to attend a GTG. I live in A2 but open to all the locations suggested so far!

I'm in whenever this happens. Plymouth is an option as well.

Ann arbor is great for me, I used to work right off Plymouth road and I'm in Brighton so it's just a stone throw up the road
