Saturday picture: Omega Speedmaster X-33 Gen 2
X-33, don't know why I do like this watch but I do.
Quartz, not thermo compensated (implying not that accurate).
Had many, all Gen 1, and let all go but this Gen 2 is here to stay. 
Nice traveling watch, only supplanted by the Skywalker.
Cheers,
Nilo

This is the only quartz watch, with the Tissot T Touch and the Swatch Bunny Sutra...
Which I ever considered getting... Why? Because of the concept, of the many functions, or of the fun ( Bunny Sutra ). This X 33 was also a military watch, if my memory serves me well. Best, Nicolas
Your memory is perfect ...
Even when the X-33 was not in the Omega catalog (now is back under the Skywalker X-33) the military, in special the US Air Force, could order it in packages for the squadrons. Cheers, Nilo
Similar tastes! :)
My X-33 is technically a Gen1, but I bought Gen2 parts years ago and replaced the bezel, pushers, and crown. ...
Was just having this X-33 conversation with my local AD last week...
It's a really cool watch! I was considering sending into Omega to get the movement replaced with a thermocompensated one, but I don't know if I care enough about it to do that. I never wear this anymore, but I love it. You may recall the precision issue w...
I'm not a good reference ...
Because of my rotation, I never wear my X-33 time enough to maintain the proper temperature. That's the reason why I prefer thermo compensated movements. Cheers, Nilo
nice trip accompanying with a fantastic watch ,
the dial is unique and very cool. never that watch series among all the Omega watch.
Agree the Gen 2 has a lovely appeal Nilo...
I wish Omega had kept the modified Broad Arrow hands on the Gen 3. Best, -- Richard.
That's a pretty cool piece!
Played with it for awhile What a shame they didn't use the circular display anymore on the latest x33, I wonder how cool would it be when they used the same but negative(?) monochromatic lcd display on their latest series.... ...
