Booked and confirmed at 14. Attention GTG participants: If you haven't validated your attendance and if you wish to bring a guest, please add to the list above.

Thanks for the picture MP; it has cleared up my uncertainties. My tool is just too big; the fork that is.

Where did you insert you small tool? Did you place it between the lug and the end-link or in the small hole on the underside of the end-link?

I am stuck at work with a mountain of paperwork & this Brilliant photograph freddy! Award worthy for sure.

I just received my first Breiting rep; the highly acclaimed Skyland V2. I need some help removing the bracelet. I tried with a spring bar tool but so far no luck. I noticed tiny holes in the end-piece on both sides. Is this the key? Many thanks. Vlydog

WE miss you buddy!

When you say fix, what are referring to?

Greetings all, We still need a guaranteed number of people for the dinner at OTTO. Would those who have committed but still need to verify, how many, please chime in.

I needed so time to cool down. I think we should stay with our original plan. Take the basic food package and maybe a better beverage package and call it a day. Yes, two hours seems short but maybe we can relocate the party to Pegu Club after diner.

Important update: After receiving the contract this afternoon, I discovered a point that was not at all a consideration at first. It seems with the early reservation time there comes a strictly enforced 2 hour dining limit. This is something that they will not bend on. I am in contact with the special events manager and in her last communication offered up another option which comes with a price. 125 flat rate per person 3 hour dining time Deluxe Menu Premium beverage package This does not include tax or tip which are automatically tacked on. I need your feed-back

Just a few numbers to keep everyone in the know. As of now there has been no decision about which meal or beverage package we will select. If we go with 40 food and 20 beverage the cost per person will be $77.00 including tax and tip. If we go with 40 food and 25 beverage the per person cost will be $83.43 including tax and tip. These numbers are not set in stone but approximate figures for your consideration.

Tracking comfirms a delivery today for my V2 graphite. For all of those who are enjoying wrist time currently, do you have any modifications planned? Question: Would a movement swap for a swiss 7750 require a new datewheel?

I have just e-mailed OTTO's events manager confirming our reservation for August the 25th. I told her that it looked like we would be 14. I also said that I would get back to her on menu choice and beverage package.

Stephane can you please post an updated list of who will attend? I should call OTTO today to confirm. Thanks

I'm feelin' da base

As I see it the beverage packages include unlimited red and white wine, beer, espresso and soft drinks. We have to make a group decision whether to take a beverage package or to go a la carte with drinks; everybody ordering what they want. If we want to stick to beer, wine and soda, I think this is the most economical way to go. We would just have to decide what quality level suits our budget. I also like the 6:30 time for the reservation.

OK, I just finished talking to the director of group dining at OTTO. It seems that 12 or more puts us in a special "large group" classification. For large goups they offer an all inclusive menu which starts at $40.00 a person. I have cut and pasted a passage from their web-site. OTTO Pizzeria offers a unique program that enables larger parties to sample the richness of the Italian table. Parties of 12 or more enjoy a simple Italian feast of antipasti, Mario Batali
