X-33 Owners Please Comment:

A friend, who was given an X-33 by an astronaut, e-mailed me about the watch. This is what he had to say; I've omitted the space traveler's name:

"I'm wearing my X-33 today. Good watch, but the layout of it is a problem. For instance, the info that you can call up on the LCD dial (like the date) is often difficult to read because the sweep hands are many times in the way. In addition, it is a difficult watch to operate. When ***** gave me this watch as a gift, he told me to never lose the instruction manual. I now know why. Between the two watches, I still prefer the old Speedmaster, although I miss not having the date on it."

Would you guys who own X-33s chime in?
