Had this for a week now and impressed how it feels on the wrist, only issue is learning how to use the functionality of the watch, it’s not easy when you get older. I do race boats so that the main reason for purchase although limited numbers also appealed to me.
I was wondering if anyone else had picked one up?

I think that’s an interesting curiosity. But prefer this one for my racing:

simple bezel and visibility

I had the Solar Impulse X-33 with the same movement, and it was a delight. It was a great watch, and had it come with the bracelet, I might still have it!
Take your time, use the 'favourite' button, top left, and get to know it!
It’s slightly different to your one press the red button and the multitude of way point countdown timers start [emoji23]

Glad to hear it will be used for its intended purpose as well. I wonder how many Yachtmasters are actually used on Yachts, for example!
Yachmaster is a great watch but you sit there watching the countdown all the time. I bought the X33 because the countdown alarm is nice and loud and the limited production run of 2017.Quote:

Racing season ended last Sunday so it will have to wait until next season for a proper workout, should be able to work out all the functions by then.

I was only crew but lovely to be back on the sea:

The X-33 is a fine watch - I see the point that it has an audible alarm and it’s one of the loudest on the market. Good luck with the racing next season OP.
