Is there an online version of the manual for the current variant X-33 Skywalker? Am unable to locate via the Omega site Thaks for the assist. Scott
Which Skywalker did you get? I am thinking about getting one soon and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Thank you.

Initially the standard Gen "3" (apparently the last one held in inventory at Omega as their online store showed out of stock shorlty after my order was placed/shipped).....will grab an example of its Solar Impulse counterpart in the coming weeks. Immediately transitioned off the bracelet to a NATO strap (find the titanium bracelet uncomfortable for daily wear which is my intended application with this watch). Looking for a long length NATO strap - would be cool when not wearing to mount on one of the sets of EVA gloves retained here. Surprised at how small a footprint the watch occupies on the wrist given all the functionality provided. If there were options to further improve the instrument, T-100 vials installed on at least the hands and 12 oclock marker would be nice as the lume seems a bit underwhelming. Otherwise really enjoying the watch
@Scott Schneeweis what would you say made the bracelet uncomfortable? Was it too big compared to other bracelets you have had? Thank you.
Not comfortable (for me) having a non-compliant metal band on my wrist. Its just a personal preference...for example setting my wrist down on a table a thick metal band generally lets me know its there...I dont want to have to feel it or have my wrist displaced by its presence or carry the additional mass. NATO band much lighter, thinner and more secure (requires both spring bars to fail in order for the watch to detach off the wrist).
Thank you for the good feedback, I appreciate it @Scott Schroeder. Don't forget to show some pictures when you get a chance please. Have a good weekend.
