In a recent interview for Japanese newspaper the Yomiuri Shimbun, Omega SA president Stephen Urquhart was quoted as saying,

&#8220;Hi, 
I saw your advise [sic] in the article against using cheap batteries for the X-33.  I know Renata is a Swiss brand, should I use them or does it really make a difference?
Thanks,

Another frequent topic of pm and email inquiries to me concerns the Omega/Swatch USA Military Pilot Program described in my Omega X-33 Article.  In short, Omega provides X-33 watches with custom caseback engravings to military pilots at a very deep discount (approx 70% off MSRP).
