Unexpected new arrival...

...and I'm diggin' it a lot. Surprised how excited I am on this one, especially since the 292 was never on my radar.

Style and vibe wise...it's all me

Very nice watch Drew. I've had my eyes on one for a while. A few other pieces take precedence though. Congrats!

Pleasantly surprised these were shot with an iPhone but hey, it's the compositions and execution that made these photos great! Oh yeah, the subject too!

Two things.

This 292 has been growing on me.
The strap you have on is a perfect pairing.

Two more things.
Happy surprised congrats!
iPhone 5 shots making us look like chumps!

Well done, Drew. It is a cool looking piece and a good sport watch collection should have an all-black piece IMO.

Congrats on your new black beauty

p.s. why "unexpected?" Because the 292 wasn't on you Radar or because your wife was feeling rather generous that day?
