Omega X-33 Gen 1 and Gen 2 prices

In the interests of balance, the original Gen 1 crown look nice but makes the watch harder to use since most functions require push pull. The ridges do make it easier. I’m a gen 2 or 3 fan personally. That said any X-33 is easier than the Multifunction Seamaster which came before using a similar movement. There everything ran off the crown.

Mine came originally from HNL.
Full kit and documentation. One of the best watch for flying and changing the hour hand for time zones.
I strangely prefer the circular digital display . you know it’s not a fake as it was never popular enough to be copied and nobody else makes a movement like this that I am aware of.
My other go to Quartz watch is my
CASIO GW-1000RAF. Another great GMT option and a keeper.

Actually Mondaine made a similar (function) watch for RJR and their Camel Trophy event. I had two of them ( one yellow one blue) but sold the yellow one.

It has the circular LCD display and analogue hands. Four pushers and a crown as the analogue movement was separate from the digital- two watches in one case.

Thanks .
I never heard of that watch before.
The X-33 is easier to use than the aerospace models from Breitling.
SEIKO had a series of analog/digital watches very similar, H023-00B0 with an all digital centre and four pushers .Have one of those as well. Seem to be on a theme here.
I have mechanical watches as well but iim always having to set the time on them .
