Skywalker X-33 Titanium / Blue / Nato / Solar Impulse

In Context

At 45 mm it is a large watch — well above this catalogue’s 40 mm median, and enough to dominate a narrow wrist. The sapphire crystal will resist everything short of deliberate abuse. Rated to 30 m, it is protected against rain and splashes and nothing beyond that.

It is quartz, so it will hold time far more closely than any mechanical watch here, and asks for a battery every few years rather than a service.

318.92.45.79.03.001 stands on its own in this catalogue — no other reference here shares its base number. It pairs a blue dial with a titanium case. It was a limited edition. Beyond the time it carries a chronograph, a perpetual calendar and an alarm.

Highly precise thermo-compensated multi-functional quartz movement with special functions developed based on an ESA patent filed by astronaut Jean-François Clervoy and tested and qualified by the European Space Agency (ESA). It powers the Omega Speedmaster Skywalker X-33 whose analog hands and LCD windows display, among other values: three different time zones, chronograph, timer, MET (Mission Elapsed Time), PET (Phase Elapsed Time), three alarms and perpetual calendar.

1 other watch in the library runs the Omega 5619.
