Added an Silver AT to the collection

Hey guys, just wanted to share with you my latest Omega acquisition.

I wanted to buy something that would dress up nicely, but still remain sporty when worn with a bracelet. I think this silver faced Aqua Terra is the perfect blend. It's so versatile! Black for evening wear, brown for business casual, and bracelet for sportswear.

Thanks for looking!

Again, congratulations on your new AT!

You can indeed change the look with black, brown, or SS. Here are some other options, dark blue:



Gold brown brown:



As a matter of fact, the AT looks good on most any strap/bracelet, even an "oyster":



I much prefer the original AT to the new version with the "teak" dial. And the silver is classic simplicity that will definitely stand the test of time.

Thanks Fr. John and RW!

Man, your white and gold dial is to die for! Love the different straps you've got on them. Totally changes the personality of the watch. Thanks for sharing!

Would LOVE to see more pictures (from anyone in this topic)! Just goes to prove how diverse / versitile the entire Seamaster line is from Omega. Something for everything. I am obsessed because of a love for water and just being paranoied, so the assurance of a screwdown caseback and crown is the only way to go for me!

Very, very nice, Presario
A clean and simple design. Absolutely beautifulle!
I had the Railmaster for a while, wich basically is the AT without the date. Very comfortable to wear, wich can be a hard find when having small wrists like you and me. Love the clear caseback and the 150m water resistance.
As always your photos are beyond excellent! Just like Jocke`s pictures, there is a certain signature to your photos, but I cant put my finger on it.
I`m guessing it`s the 39,2mm AT? Looks good on you.

It is really beautiful... You have a good taste.

I'm also planning on buying one...

How does it feel on your wrist? Is it a big watch in overall? I saw some shots from you wearing a Submariner, which should be bigger than the AT by their measurements, but on this photo, the AT looks somehow larger... How does it feel compared to that?

Unfortunately I have a 6.25" wrist, and I have a huge dilemma between this one (39mm) and the 36 mm...


It would be awesome te see the Sub and this beauty together on a photo: the diver meets the saloon-diver.

Looks fantastic... agree with a previous post -- let's see some more pics!

I really, really like how this watch looks with a leather band... very elegant. Did you pic yours up on TRF (there was one posted for some time)?
