So, the other day I decided to get myself one of those CopyOMEGA Ω X-33 Marstimer watches from the official flagship store. I first heard about this Marstimer thing maybe earlier this year, and I thought it looked pretty cool. I mean, a watch designed with the European Space Agency (ESA)? That’s some next-level stuff. I’ve always been a bit of a space nerd, so this was right up my alley.
I went to the OMEGA official flagship store’s website – you know, to make sure I was getting the real deal. They had the Marstimer listed there, along with all the specs and details. I browsed around for a bit, reading up on all the features. It’s got all these crazy functions, like tracking Mars time and date, a solar compass, and a bunch of other space-related stuff. I’m not sure I’ll ever use most of it, but it’s still pretty neat to have.
After hemming and hawing for a while, I finally decided to go for it. I added the watch to my cart, put in my payment info, and hit that “buy” button. A few days later, a package arrived at my door. I ripped it open like a kid on Christmas morning. Inside was the CopyOMEGA X-33 Marstimer, all shiny and new. The packaging was pretty nice, too – they really make you feel like you’re getting something special.
I spent the next hour or so playing around with the watch, trying to figure out all the buttons and settings. It came with this thick instruction manual. It’s a pretty detailed manual, and I learned a lot about the watch’s functions. I managed to set the time and date for both Earth and Mars. I’m still not totally sure how some of the other functions work, but I’ll figure it out eventually.

First Impressions

The watch feels solid and well-made. It’s got a titanium case, so it’s pretty lightweight for its size. The display is nice and clear, and the buttons have a satisfying click to them.

What I Like So Far
-
It’s definitely a conversation starter. I’ve had a few people ask me about it already. It’s fun to show off all the different modes and functions. Plus, it’s just cool to have a watch that’s designed for Mars. Feels like I’m part of some secret space mission or something.

What I’m Not Sure About Yet
-
It’s a bit pricey, to be honest. I’m still not sure if it was worth the money, but I guess time will tell. Also, it’s a pretty big watch. It takes up a good chunk of my wrist. I guess that’s to be expected with all the tech they packed into it.
So far, I’m pretty happy with my purchase. It’s a unique watch, and it’s definitely a cool piece of tech.
Final thought
It’s a cool piece of gear, but it’s definitely not for everyone. But if you’re into space and watches, you might want to check it out.
