Just traded my X-33 Solar Impulse for the classic! The X-33 is a technical wonder with unbelievable accuracy and some very interesting complications, but I never wore the watch. I think it was the color scheme, which is striking but just doesn't work with my office attire. I probably would have been better off with the X-33 Skywalker on the bracelet, and may revisit that watch down the road, but I'm exceptionally happy with my Speedy Pro! I've owned dozens of nice pieces but this is actually my first Speedy Pro, and I'm wonder why I waited this long! It actually never occurred to me that the movement was essentially non-hacking, but I think I got the hang of the method in getting it to hack, which is powerful motivation to wind it every day! I picked up a couple of Omega NATO straps yesterday, which are obscenely priced but so nice that they're almost worth it. This reference was on the leather strap, which I don't particularly care for, so I'll probably end up wearing it mostly on the NATO straps.
