Three new photos of the 422

Three photos, shot one after another, processed three different way.

I would have shot more but it started raining, as you can see from the drops on the dial.

Since I could not decide on which one I like the most, you get all three.

Great shots! Is that the OEM distressed leather? I was considering it for my 422 as well. Did you have to order it in 26mm?

The boutique in Dallas had the 26-22 in stock. I was going to pick up a tang as well but they wanted 250 for it. That's just nuts.

It's the softest strap I've ever had and it completely changed the look of the watch.
I actually prefer it to the assolutamente strap and I didn't think I'd ever say that.

Asso and vintage calf are two of the best OEMs. Looking good, Chip. Great shots!
