Omega launch - X‑33 MARSTIMER
Made in conjunction with the European Space Agency (ESA), OMEGA’s Speedmaster X-33 Marstimer is everything the name suggests. Cased in grade 2 titanium and powered by a multifunctional quartz movement, the unique 45 mm chronograph can track times and time...
I would just love saying….
Take a look at my oxalic anodized aluminium bezel ring in red hematite 🤷🏼♂️
It’s bad enough to find out you’re going to Mars and then obsess about owning this watch…

I suspect it's a trade off

I would but
