I Chose Both.............

I use the X-33 for my daily wear and the AC when I work and and for going out. Both have their place. There are days when I feel like wearing the functionality of the X-33, and days I feel a little more dressy by wearing the America's Cup. I would feel funny wearing the X-33 to Church, but I feel funny wearing the AC rastling with the kids. I bought my AC on the bracetlet, then bought the Rubber Strap shown here. For a review of the strap and clasp see the link below. If I was to pick my favorite, I would pick the SeMP AC, but the X-33 can't be beat as a tool. With proper maintainance, the AC should last through your grandchildren, even with infrequent use. Some of the photos of the X-33 give the dial a blue color. This is just an illusion. The inner bezel ring only comes in black. I bought my X-33 first, then after I had the AC wondered if I should sell the X-33. I'm glad I didn't. I enjoy them both. They are totally different.

Hope this helps.
