Re: Opinion on X-33
In Response To: Opinion on X-33 ()

That is because not a lot of people have an X33. Of course, neither do I. Though I have thought about picking it up as an extra watch to keep company with my Speedmaster Professional and SMP auto. The thing about the X33 is that it is sort of a complex electronic tool that throws some people off. Being a purist, I prefer things mechanical, but the X33 does attract me. And that is because its dial look signifies electronic instead of a quartz movement inside something that looks mechanical. Though electronic, it is a dead serious unit that is made especially for NASA. Also considered by some to be the best pilot's watch in exhistance today. And it is supposed to have a very loud alarm to boot, along with the some speedmaster still around in the styling of the case. Go look around timezone where there is an excellent pilot's review of the X33. It's worth the time trying to find the article.
