Destiny?!? I've been expecting your call......
The 000 was lonely so the search began for a companion. With 25's, 305's and 243's already well represented here, the 24 was a natural fit. Of course there are more salient reasons that lead me to the 024, but we will save those for a later, more thorough post.
For now, just a few early shots:

Love it. A 000 and a Sub are the perfect pair.

Re: Destiny?!? I've been expecting your call......
Thank you, guys - slightly similar to have familiarity yet very much different enough so as not to be redundant.
love the dial to bezel ratio. the bezel is "thin" enough not to shrink the dial and to make the dial "larger" and an easy view. if that makes sense
There are more than a few features that I like right off the bat and just a couple that I an getting used to.

Ya done good Mike!
Re: Destiny?!? I've been expecting your call......
Congrats! I love the Sub, and the 24!
Re: Destiny?!? I've been expecting your call......
Congrats, Mike. Looking forward to impressions. Love your write-ups.
Re: Destiny?!? I've been expecting your call......
EXCELLENT!
I've had both the 024 and 025 and like them both very much. Really different watches, although the 'M8's' like to compare them incessantly.
I prefer the 25, but only because I have a bit of a Titanium fetish..
The 024 is much classier, imo - gorgeous piece.
HUGE congrats

Well done Mike, hope it works well for you.
Re: Destiny?!? I've been expecting your call......
Congratulations.. As Paul said one of the classier 44mm subs, comfortable on the rubber and easily transforms with a croc strap. I really liked my 24, It moved on and I missed it terribly and ultimately was replaced by the 243.
Regards

Well done! Great looking piece. Cool pics. What made you choose the 24 over the 243? Just curious.
