Re: Noisy X 33 ?

In Response To: Noisy X 33 ? ()

I have a new X-33 (3291.50-no more shiny parts) on my wrist right now and it ticks and sings just like yours. I was a bit surprised by the singing light but given the brightness I'm not surprised. (I like jb's answer--seems reasonable.)

I hope you are enjoying yours even half as much as I am enjoying mine. It doesn't look like a classic "pilot's chronograph" but it is FAR more ergonomically appropriate for the cockpit than my Breitling. I can even pull the crown with my flight gloves on!

: I just received a x 33 for Christmas and love
: it, I've wanted one to compliment my
: Seamaster Chrono. for quite awhile. Has
: anyone noticed the x 33 'ticking' when held
: within earshot and/or the 'slight ringing'
: after the light button is pushed, until the
: light goes off? Is this normal? Thanks and
: Happy New Year to all- Steve
