MINI GTG with Mark (RFXMM)

Mark, and I met up last Friday afternoon in Metro Atlanta to check out a watch sellers collection. We shook hands, and entered the watch shop. We were greeted very well, and asked to relax.

After a few minutes Mark, and I were able to look through about 20 differant Rolexes. Very interesting watches. Mark had to tend to work from his cell phone, but we had plenty of time to shop. I ended up with a 16750, and a few other items.

Mark was a great guy, and shares the same passion for watches as the other members. We were running late on time, but wanted to grab a bite to eat. That plan fell through this time, but we'll try next time.

Had a great time Mark Maybe we can get something together for a little more formal for dinner. Does the B-52 resteraunt still have a busines? That would be fun! Paul

Good day!

I am glad you and Mark had a good time Paul, you look to be having fun in the shop.

This could be a real Rolex watch adventure between you two.

Interesting to say the least. I didn't have time to look at nearly enough. Nice hanging with Paul as well.

Good work chaps.

Paul, I can see you have flipped a few watches lately - what colour dial is your 16750?
