X'MAS gift to myself
Talked to my AD friend yesterday, asked him anything special I can have as X'MAS gift to myself, he mentioned some watches, either too expensive or not interested at.
Boom, this lunch time, he called me, and said something just came this morning that I might be interested, since I missed the boat last time. Sure enough, got off work early, picked this baby up:

Big congrats!!! Well done. Your AD is better than Santa Claus!!

Btw, I'm liking the 507 over the 382 these days. Really like the balance of the three lines and PR.

I have to admit the 507 is really growing on me over the 382... no I'm not in the hunt.
