So I was out riding my scooter today, and before I knew it, look what I rode by...
Sorry for the poor quality, they were taken with my iPhone.

Idle Swede · 1 June 2009, 09:49 AM

For an iphone, nice shots...

Bulltrapper · 1 June 2009, 10:01 AM

how did you post these pics from your Iphone, thanks!

Grant

2th Dr · 1 June 2009, 10:03 AM

Actually, I just got home, and downloaded them to my Mac.

I suppose I could have done it from my iPhone, but it would have taken a while!

Bulltrapper · 1 June 2009, 10:10 AM

thanks Mark!

Z-Sub · 1 June 2009, 10:12 AM

Nice, it'll be even better with you and your scooter in the picture

I didn't think about that until I was heading home.

sojourner · 1 June 2009, 10:15 AM

Good stuff Mark, thanks for posting. So, do you live in Dallas or are you just visiting from Houston (your info. says you live there)? I live in Dallas and have been to the RSC a few times...very friendly staff!

eyen · 1 June 2009, 10:31 AM

nice place, which Rolex were you wearing?

2th Dr · 1 June 2009, 10:35 AM

Tom,
I work in Fort Worth during the week and stay in an apartment in Grand Prairie, but I go home to my house in Houston every other weekend or so.

2th Dr · 1 June 2009, 10:36 AM

Matt, I was wearing my GMT IIc.

And apparently, NOT enough sun screen!

Yikes, that sounds rough! I'm in Capital Medical Sales and cover all of Texas but I, at least, am home every weekend. The daily commute from Grand Prairie to Ft. Worth sounds grueling in and of itself!

2th Dr · 1 June 2009, 10:44 AM

Actually, the commute from Grand Prairie (Arlington really) to Fort worth is not bad at all, 17 miles each way, against traffic (and in a comfy Lexus). It's the commute home to Houston that's a killer!

Understood, for some reason I assumed you were doing this on your scooter...hence 'rough'. A comfy Lexus for the drive in is much more tolerable!

2th Dr · 1 June 2009, 10:50 AM

Oh yeah, on my scooter, THAT would be rough! And I have done it a few times, just for fun, but no way could I do it every day!

SDDS · 1 June 2009, 07:38 PM

niels74 · 1 June 2009, 07:52 PM

The RSC in Bexley Kent in the UK you would know it was there,its on a residential Road with no Rolex sign and nothing to tell you what it is,I guess you either know or don't that its there.

MrCowboy99 · 1 June 2009, 09:40 PM

kinda disappointing once you get there isn't it? 6th floor with water and choclates being offered. Least the choclates were great.
Did you pocket up a few?

2th Dr · 1 June 2009, 09:43 PM

No, I didn't go in. It was Sunday, so they were closed. I was just riding around and stumbled across it.

MrCowboy99 · 1 June 2009, 09:54 PM

It's a nice building. Not a drop of oil on the floor of the parking garage. The place to drop watches off is a just a room with two poeple sitting there offering water and choclates. The go behind a door and come back. It was disappointing to visit but I will always go there to get mine serviced.

Imtiaz · 1 June 2009, 11:48 PM

Mark, they are excellent shots.

You got a very good eye for the right angle.

Thanks Imtiaz!

I'm sure I looked rather silly to passing motorists as I was holding my iPhone up to take the shots! They were probably wondering "What the...?"

sea-dweller · 2 June 2009, 12:46 AM

Great photos, I have never been, or seen the Dallas RSC.

2th Dr · 2 June 2009, 12:48 AM

Thanks. I just wanted to share. It's always nice to see other places, especially if it's your watch going there for servicing. Puts a "face" to the name, as they say.

lm21 · 2 June 2009, 12:59 AM

...you need to buy a house in DFW!

You could take the gas money you'll save and buy ... oh ... I don't know ...

ANOTHER WATCH PERHAPS!?!?

kcmo · 2 June 2009, 01:00 AM

Great photos, Mark! Looks like a very nice building! I've sent a couple of watches there to Vivian for service....would LOVE to see the inside!

Yeah, if I could just sell my house in Houston, I would save ~$1000.00 per month NOT having to pay rent in Grand Prairie, + utilities, + gasoline driving back and forth, + depreciation on my car. MAN, that would pay for many more watches!
