And for those of you who are wondering about the "Wall of watches":

These are actual paintings - here is one for you to look at:

You can see more of them here: Galleria Swiss (http://www.galleriaswiss.com/)

Or you can actually contact him direct, (watchfan1) since he is a member on this forum.

I'm pretty sure he can have one made of your personal watch if he doesn't already have it............ ;)

LOL, why did the AD call the Sheriff when he heard that you are coming?

Great pics!

[Idle Swede]

With all our watches........... to give us an escort back to milo's house of course.... :] :]

[Gerro]

Great pictures, thanks for sharing.
May I ask why you wear shoes in different colours? Some health issue? http://www.r-l-x.de/wbb2/images//smilies/a015.gif

Thanks a lot for the pics, Leo (?) ;)

Just noticed that you are located in Boca Raton - we also have some relatives in the US - my grand aunt - who unfortunately passed away early this year - lived in Wynmoor Village :cool:

Hello Leo, is that Steph (from TZ) i see behind the shop counter?

Cool mini GTG! :gut:

Greetings,

I'm wearing a slipper on my left foot because the leg is still swollen after surgery I had a while back.

[Idle Swede]

Harald,

I'm sorry to hear about your loss.

Don't know where Wynmoor Village is, it's probably the name of the community within Boca.

[Idle Swede]

Peter,

Yes that's her, she pretended to be a sales person and wanted to go behind the counter....... :]

[NicoH]

Peter,

you were talking about a "Mini-GTG" - but this was just the warm-up! ;)

Here is a detailed report about the actual event with 50+ attendees: Link (http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=tree&goto=3148867&rid=0)

Enjoy-

Hello Nico,
yes, saw it earlier on TZ too, it's just to far away for me to attend these GTG's, and it's not easy to find time & space for it with 3 small kids who need attention too, but maybe someday, i would be very happy to join the GTG :gut:

@ Leo: thought i had seen that face before, i was actually thinking she worked there, and that explained her TZ nickname "Diamondgirl".
Guess i was wrong about that last thing :D

Greetings to all,
Peter

See you at one of those in the future-

Here it is ...

Until some years ago we used to spend the sommer there once in a while ...

[Idle Swede]

That's why I didn't know about it...... ;)

It's actually closer to Miami then Boca.

[miboroco]

sehr schön, dankeschön!!!

Ah, ok - but close enough I hope for a mini GTG if I'm ever visiting Wynmoor again :cool:
