the loudest alarm watch ever?
« on: April 21, 2010, 09:16:03 PM »
when i was small kid, i thought casio alarm watch is cool... plenty of melody to choose from, u can even set ur birthday to hv a dedicated melody for that.

when i was in high school.. i tot seiko was cool, analogue watch (quartz) but can hear the alarm ringing sharply, n was amazed with the mechanical (actually.. it was digitized partially) that make the alarm sound so good.

when i'm working now... i tot cricket (vulcain) was cool.. cox the alarm sound was created mechanically. then, i heard a ulysse nardin minute repeater... wow.. impressive.. sound so great. then i came across this... madafaka... is this an alarm watch or clock sounding?

The Omega X33 is really loud. My B'ling B1 is fine but not as loud as the Omega. They're both digi/analogue hybrids though!

Indeed, I was told X33 is loud. I hope someday I have a X33 in hand to set and hear its alrm for myself :)

i tot x33 is only made for NASA astronaut? nope? i remember i saw it at youtube someone fixing a x33 in the space with zero gravity, ok... go googling about this x33 now...
but this JLC.. sound really good... the ding the dang sounds were greatly produced... very nice acoustic.. dun u think?

tested a citizen minute repeater just now at isetan klcc just now... very unnatural... very digitized.
