Incoming: Speedmaster X-33 Skywalker
Being the mechanical watch die-hard I am I never thought I would be getting one of these... But the opportunity came and I jumped on it.
I believe it is a good complement to my Speedy collection of two Pros ("Hello Houston" and Apollo XV 35th) and a Bienne restored c1045 from 1976.
Very interesting watch, functions well thought and incredibly lightweight.
Enjoying it very much.

I had an older version and loved...I'm sure this would be no different.
Looks great!

That's nice!!
Re: Incoming: Speedmaster X-33 Skywalker
I love this and the X33 line. I almost bought a 2nd Gen a couple weeks ago but just couldn't justify it at the time. Trying to position myself for when the time is right.

I call dibs if you ever decide to move it. Hopefully i'll be ready if that day ever comes. Sounds like it may be a keeper for you.

I should've bought one of these ten years ago. I love this thing and use it regularly. I haven't found a function that I haven't used.

Nice
I go through periods of wanting one of these or the B Aerospace; I like the design of these more, though

They're great watches. Have a friend who has one and uses it for his work and I've always been jealous of itGrahamcombat wrote:I should've bought one of these ten years ago. I love this thing and use it regularly. I haven't found a function that I haven't used.

Hi Luis,
I've been looking at these, and playing with the iPad app. Am I missing something, or is there no day (Mon, Tues, etc) display?

If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

Re: Incoming: Speedmaster X-33 Skywalker
I saw one of these at an Omege boutique a few weeks ago and thought it was outstanding. Congratulations!
Resistance is the indicator of progress.
