On behalf of the international OF members working 9-5: why do you put this up on a Tuesday? 🙁😜
Ahh Tuesday is key!
I've run events for the last 10 years.
Monday and Tuesday you can get private venues for free.
But Monday no one will come.
Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday private rooms have minimum spend, and I can't cover £500-£1000 out of my pocket, and ultimately the 10-15 of us wouldn't drink that much!
Weekends... people do family stuff, and whilst lots work in central London, few live here.
So Tuesday is a night where you get people show up because they're in the city working, the private meeting rooms are free, and everyone is a little more relaxed than a Monday, and ready for a beer.
Marketing science magic! 😉
Registered!!!
Great!
Since you're new here... and your instagram account is locked down... let's see some watches 😉
How about I surprise you on the 21st? And I promise you, I'll surprise you haha
Didn't know this was going to be an issue at a public event in a venue with so many people. In the middle of City of London. Ok check your email.
It's not an issue unless you make it one.
The event is private, the venue location is private, the room we will be meeting in is private, everyone who comes will need to provide photo ID on arrival, and check in.
For very obvious reasons, there is a need for sensible behaviour on all sides - if you have a problem with that, you don't have to come, and either way, you may want to adjust that attitude a little bit.
We're all friends here, but we got that way by respecting each other.
Nice collection 😉
See you on the 21st.
Buddy come on man. No attitude here, I don't even know where you got that from. I just was curious as I have been to some of these before where no questions asked. Usually being a public place, whether a watch meet up or a deal from chrono24 or whatever is enough to suffice.
But if these are your rules I'll respect them as I have done with my email. No attitude no problem here. I was merely trying to explain why I didn't immediately jump to showing my collection as a knee jerk reaction. From your POV I kinda get why my message came across as creepy etc so I was explaining why that was my first reaction.
