So in trying to decide between the 292 and the Daytona (still on order), my AD let me have the 292 for a day to try and decide in the serenity of my home.

So here are some pics... I thought the strap could be replaced with a brown calf or JV or a vintage.

Very nice

Joey_V · 23 May 2010, 12:48 PM

Definitely looks KILLER.... can't decide...

kungpow · 23 May 2010, 04:23 PM

Awesome, congrats!

Psmith · 23 May 2010, 04:43 PM

Great looking watch Joey, but that strap does nothing for it. A tan strap with black stitching and a PVD buckle would look nice...

Cheers

Stunning, very very nice !!!!

Joey...you are going to get them both! Just a matter of which one first! Also, hopefully you are getting some off on the 292 as they have been selling below MSRP. This way you don't loose much if you unload later. Good luck !

Nice score!!

rmcarlton · 24 May 2010, 02:19 PM

Impressive!

dalip · 25 May 2010, 12:46 AM

Looks good...but I agree..really needs a brown strap...nice of your AD to lend it to you. For me...it would be the daytona....although both is a great option...

sakuraba · 25 May 2010, 12:50 AM

I'm not one to choose a PAM over a Rolex (especially a Daytona), but that ceramic should do it!

Good luck, bro!

B. Doggy · 25 May 2010, 10:38 AM

If it were me, I'd go Daytona.....

andrew79 · 25 May 2010, 10:53 AM

nice watch

Seventh Son · 25 May 2010, 11:59 AM

I love the 292 but Daytona will come first for me.

Nica64 · 25 May 2010, 12:15 PM

Looking good!!

Spencer · 25 May 2010, 02:40 PM

Love the 292, but I would take the Daytona 24/7/365!

ocwatching · 25 May 2010, 02:56 PM

I am still for the daytona as well...

Does that mean you would take the 292 on a leap year?

Joey_V · 25 May 2010, 05:12 PM

Thanks fellas... your input has been great! So far it's been GMTIIC vs Daytona vs 292...

There's a nice JV strap at the AD, I think I'd like to experiment how that'd look with the 292.

Trurolexer · 26 May 2010, 01:19 AM

Stunning!!!

sphereman · 26 May 2010, 02:24 AM

I would go for a 292 (but with a nice discount).

DS_Obsessed · 26 May 2010, 04:01 AM

I like the 292. Daytona are cool, but if I was going to get one I'd save for a WG. 292 has a little more flavor than a SS Daytona in my opinion.
