Is The OMEGA Aqua Terra The Perfect Everyday Luxury Watch?

[@2000bhoy]

My wife bought mine for my 60th birthday last year. 41mm Grey face with blue hands and i wear it every day but not to work. (Doesn't go with a hi-viz and steel toecaps!) Makes me smile and feel special every time i put it on. Happy me!

Better than the explorer? Very close price points on both.

Not sure where you are based but the price different between the AT and explorer one is £200 in the uk. Being able to buy a explorer though will be impossible.

Just when I think I don't "need" another watch, you remind us about a classic that really has been right in front of us for a few years now. That green one is so handsome. And to be honest, it's great to see how a watch that has been worn every day still looks fantastic. Great episode as always teddy!

[@PostBakka]

I have a 6.5 inch wrist went with the 41. The 8900 is amazing. The larger dial for me makes it lean a little more sporty, 38 felt more dressy, but all thing being equal in price, I went with the “better” movement. I have three straps, the rubber is probably my favorite but also have a blue snoopy leather and Milanese steel. One rubber, one leather, one steal changes the vibe of the watch.

[@Cmdahlbe404]

I purchased a 41mm blue dial AT last year and wear it everyday. It’s a great watch that wears well on my wrist and never looks out of place.

[@amoschoo6108]

[@EliasJsson]

What a coincidence, I just made up my mind and pulled the trigger on a Omega Seamaster AT 41mm with black dial, after months of consideration of different models and types of watches. I watched many of your reviews and find them outstanding, you truly makes shopping for watches so much fun, and it sure helped me pick my first luxury watch cause really it comes down to what you like and are going to feel is right to have on your wrist every day. The Omega Seamaster AT checks so many boxes for me. Dressy yet sporty, it sure looks great with everything from a suit to a sail jacket or even running gear or WCT shirt. I love that it has a power reserve of 60h, just enough to be able to take it off on Friday night and put it back on Monday morning, and find it still running! I love that it's water proof to 150m, means I will never have to take it off at the beach when going for a swim (not leaving nosey eyes any chance to lay hands on it). Cause yes it WILL draw attention, given all the shine from all those polished parts on bezel and bracelet. Also the setting of hour hand alone is awesome, very quick way to change date or time zone without stopping the watch. My only "concerns" after one month of owning the 8900 is that it seems to be running a little fast, 4s per day or so. Wonder if this will change over time? I also find that when crown is screwed all the way down, the Omega logo is like 160 degrees rotated (almost up side down). It ends up like that all the time, so must mean there could been a way to always get it lined up correctly, so why not make it oriented that way from manufacturing? Is this same for all ATs? Another thing I noticed is when I gave the crown some 40 twists after it stopped, making it feel more resistant and so at least I thought it was fully winded, it stopped again in less than 24 hours. How much should you really have to turn it to fully tension the main spring? Would really apriciate some answers to these small concerns but still despite them I absolutely love my watch and more so for every day! Thanks Teddy for a great channel 👍

[@voicians]

Bought an Aqua Terra last year. I still smile everytime I look at it. I almost bought a Rolex but I don't like the whole hype around it. People either think it's fake or just braggy. The Aqua Terra is absolutely elegant, understatement and perfect for every occasion!

It is completely original, and the glass remains unscratched despite much garden working. The Steel bracelet to has never failed; at its (old style|) slide clasp. I have owned many watches in the past; this one is so genuinely tuff! So pleased am I that I even brought my wife the same with Ladies diamond hour positions Seamaster.

Agreed! I bought the 38mm in blue a few weeks ago, and it's very quickly become my favourite watch. People hate on the bracelet's polished centre links, but I like them. It's not the best quality bracelet though, and the clasp and lack of micro adjustment has some room for improvement.

[@neil.milgausszblue8945]

Only trouble is which "one" I like this green dial one on the bracelet (with the leather alligator strap alternative). It looks like an elegant sports watch to wear with a suit or smart casual. But I also like the chrome dial with the blue hands and indices on the rubber strap for casual wear, swimming etc.A combo of both would also give the option of wearing either on a shared bracelet, the green on the alligator or the chrome on the rubber. Effectively 4 looks from 2 watches.

Great video and explanation. I went for the Aquaterra GMT 43mm on a black dial. I know it’s a little big, but I can accommodate it in my 7 1/2” wrist. I have other watches that are 43mm and I am comfortable with their sizes. Another reason is that I didn’t wanted a dress watch, I wanted a casual one. For me the Aquaterra is the mother of all watches. I am sorry Oris, I also love you, but I have to compare the Aquaterra with Roberto Clemente. He had so many tools and abilities that he could win a game in a lot of ways, that is also what the Aquaterra does!!! I am stopping my luxury level of watches with Omega, I will not buy a Rolex. I want a watch that reminds me of what I have accomplished with hard work, Omega does it in a good way. I don’t want to be part of a club where people that are right handed holds their glass with their left hands all night so others can see they are wearing a Rolex. I hold the glass with my left hand because I am left handed, I don’t wear a watch to impress others!!!! Aquaterra is the watch the qualifies with nines and tens in all categories!!!! Thank you Teddy!!!!

[@ianhiscock9440]

Think you’ve nailed it Teddy! I’d go for the 38mm, and it’s a shame Omega don’t (yet!) do it in the green. Looks great on steel or leather, really like the horizontal “teak” pattern to add texture, and moving the date to 6 o’clock is a big improvement.

[@theoverlord1925]

I agree with everything and love the watch. The only thing stopping me from buying it is the clasp. If the watch has some sporty attributes , it should have a clasp with micro adjustments like on the Seamaster 300 M . The butterfly clasp is dressier, and sleeker; but two half links is the only fine adjustment you will get on this this other than adding or removing full links.

Watch brands clutter up the dials too often, IMO. Nobody ever uses a chronograph, they're just extra dials to make it look "fancy" and up your servicing costs for no good reason.

Thank you for a great review Teddy.

From casual elegance for the office to sporty appearance outside the range has everything and for the traveller perhaps the best looking looking best priced World timer on the market, that is going to be my Aqua Terra purchase. The range offers greater choice better variety better pricing and above all availability compared to similar offerings from Rolex OP, DJ and Milgaus and arguably the GMT!! There is something for everyone in that range. I so agree with you regarding Rolex, I do think the games or whatever that are going on there will backfire, the alternatives choices in the market are huge Omega, JLC, Grand Seiko, Zenith to name but a few. Omega needs to work on the buckle that would be my only criticism.

The polished mid links could be an issue overtime but as long as you don’t wear it to do a manual job, small scratches should polish out. I really like the rubber strap also, and the combination of the two give it even more scope for versatility. An excellent movement and an interesting design language just work. The Zenith Defy is a lovely watch but at the side of this it looks like a one trick pony.

Are you only talking about co-axial omega Seamaster aqua terra ? Because I keep almost buying normal quartz omega sea master aqua terra watches because they look exactly the same but the price difference is pretty extreme, so I always think I’ve found this amazing Black Friday sale but then I always see the ‘co-axial’ missing from the dial …

Love the Aqua Terra. I have the Worldtimer and am in love with it. Only wish that the bracelet had a micro adjustment option. That would propel this watch much further in my opinion. I do have the Worldtimer with the bracelet and did buy the rubber strap. The rubber strap really helps the dial pop. I’m sure it would do the same with the regular AT line as well.

I agree, the band is not good. Mine is a tad tight. What kind of rubber strap did you get?

[@stevecatalano9856]

@@jerroldfrank5869 I bought the official Omega rubber strap directly through the boutique. Expensive but I rather not cut corners when spending so much on a watch in the first place. Very happy with it and it has held up very well.

Totally agree. I have it in the blue with the rubber strap and it’s a watch for all occasions. Bye the way were you an auctioneer in a former life? You can talk at 100 mph and never seem to take a breath. Keep up the great work.
