New Omega. X-33 digi-only

I'd not considered one of these before, does the digital information stay on the screen all the time or disappear and leave it blank?

You can choose to have the diff display on or off, toggle the function by pressing and holding the 10 o’clock pusher.

I leave mine off for the majority of the time and this massively increases battery life

Don't think that's an option on the newer Skywalker models Ben?

That is b*ll*cks! Low-contrast display... Two-year battery life - no solar charging... No Alaska Project references anywhere... Hilariously dated functionality... Only 30m WR despite the ludicrously oversized case and thick caseback... Cheapo drinks-can alloy bezel... And £Six grand!

Omega have lost the plot.

It's a good-looking watch, but .. Casio do this sort of thing a lot better.

As mentioned, on the Skywalker X33 you cannot turn off the digi display.
It does go off after 5 days if you don’t use any functions, but you cannot (I don’t think) elect to turn it off.

I was aware of that Rob, but thought Simons Question was referring specifically to the GenII in the pic he quoted.

Omega should have kept this function but I guess there are reasons why its no longer a feature.

I love the brown bezel on the Marstimer and think it’s an even better looking watch than the regular X-33, but £6k!!!!

The last time I had an X33 I bought it brand new for £900 - how on earth this latest iteration is £6k is mental.
