Just got back from Orr's in Sewickley today. I told them we would be paying a visit in 2 weeks. They actually now have the top graduate from Rolex School in Lititz on site. Bob the manager gave me a nice tour of his set up--pretty cool! Anyway-this coming Saturday Orr's is having big watch show with all the manufacturers coming in to their Squirrel Hill location. My wife and I will be heading there in case anyone else is interested. Look forward to seeing you all or yunz as we say here in 2 weeks!!

Ken, what are the times/details of the watch show at Orrs? I can walk there from my home. Maybe I will get a chance to try on an AP ;)

Shannon- No AP's unfortunately but lots of others! It is likely an all day thing. We are going to head there at noon most likely.

When you get old, let me know.

You and Lili could run circles around me.

Raf,

Henne's in Shadyside, Chad the salesman, had the gold coins, across from the no longer Doc's place.

The Orr's we're going to is not the same (Orr's) who's name we don't speak, is where the 6 figure diamond was. 6.38 karat, I think.

And the restaurant that was 13 blocks away was ... oops ... forget it.
