Alright, so I’ve been messing around with this watch face thing, the CopyOMEGA Ω X-33 Marstimer Classic Style, and I gotta say, it’s been a bit of a journey.
I first got wind of this Marstimer thing a while back, probably early this year. I saw some folks online talking about it, and I thought, “Hey, that looks pretty neat.” They call it the Speedmaster X-33 Marstimer, and apparently, it’s the 4th generation of the X-33 series. I also found out it’s not replacing the Skywalker. Cool, cool.
Now, I’m not exactly swimming in cash, so I thought I’d try to find a, shall we say, alternative way to get that Marstimer look. You can get yourself a CopyOMEGA X-33 Marstimer without breakin’ the bank. This CopyOMEGA X-33 Marstimer, it’s big, you know? Like 45mm. That’s bigger than my thumb.
So, I started digging around online, looking for this “CopyOMEGA” thing. I found a few places that seemed to be selling them, some “official” looking stores and some, well, not so official. Ended up grabbing one from a spot that looked alright. The site looked like it knew what it was doing and had some okay pictures and information that looked pretty accurate to the official X-33.
Waited a few days, and boom, package arrived.
Opened it up, and there it was. This CopyOMEGA X-33 Marstimer, it’s big, you know? Like 45mm. That’s bigger than my thumb. I strapped it on, and it felt pretty good, to be honest. It’s got some weight to it, but not too much. The screen is bright and clear, and the buttons are, well, they’re buttons. They click and stuff. Took a bit of messing around to figure out how to set the time and all that, but eventually, I got it.
- The first thing was setting up the time.
- Then, trying out different features.
- And finally, making it my daily wear for a week.
I wore it around for a few days, and you know what? It’s not half bad. I mean, it’s not the real deal, but it does the job. I can check the time, use the timer, and even play around with the other features, like, well, I’m not exactly sure what they all do, but they’re there.
Here’s the thing
It’s kind of cool having this thing on my wrist. It looks fancy, and I’ve even gotten a few compliments on it. People ask, “Hey, is that the new Marstimer?” And I just kind of shrug and say, “Maybe.”
And yeah, maybe I’ll treat myself to the real OMEGA X-33 Marstimer someday. But for now, this CopyOMEGA version is doing the trick. It’s a fun little toy, and it’s got me interested in learning more about watches and all that. So, if you’re looking for a cheap way to get that Marstimer look, this might be the way to go. Just don’t expect it to be the real thing, you know?
So, that’s my story. I messed around with a CopyOMEGA X-33 Marstimer, and it turned out to be a pretty interesting experience. Might not be for everyone, but hey, I had fun.
