Anyone own the Sedna Aqua Terra 150M on rubber?

Recently become enamored by the Omega Aqua Terra 41mm lineup. Curious to see of anyone has the red "sedna" gold version of this watch with the blue dial? Would love to see some wrist shots.

This flat-out may be the best looking watch I have ever seen. That red gold combined with the teak patterned blue dial and blue rubber strap is just amazing. The way they have incorporated a section of red gold into the strap end links really is stunning. Here is a watch I look at and honestly can't come up with one thing I would change.

I would love to hear some comments and reviews on this watch specifically, or any other 41mm AT if possible. I haven't moved into the realm of PM yet but this one sure has my attention. Wow!

I have the steel case with green dial on a bracelet. I’ve had it about 3 weeks now. To start it keeps amazing time. Zero issues in that department. The watch itself is a stunner and I just love the way it looks when the light hits it from various angles. The only thing I will criticize about the watch is the lume. Unfortunately it’s not very bright and really hard to read in the dark. A bit disappointing because I wear my watch to bed and it would nice to see the time in the middle of the night. Other than that it’s a tremendous watch and I would make the purchase again in a heartbeat. I really think it plays both sides of the fence nicely as a sport/dress watch. Very clean look to it which made me gravitate towards it in the first place.

Thanks for the feedback. The lume issue is about the only negative I have ever heard about this watch. Good point about straddling the fence. That's kind of what I like about it. Works in dress situations, and just about anywhere else. Seems like they can be had at a pretty good discount from the AD or used too. Also for a PM piece the MSRP isn't all that unreasonable. I'm seeing them in the 12-13K range used.

If (big if) I were to go for this watch, it would most likely replace my blue Datejust as my semi-dress watch

Moonphase isn't going anywhere

Here is a great video review.
I love it too.

But, it is really like a copper penny and just too red for me with my yellow gold ring.

But, it is a beauty. I tried it on locally. Very nice.

Looks lovely - I am considering a steel one on the rubber at the moment. Such and underrated watch in general the AT. The proportions are great.

Wow, that is really impressive

Do they make this particular model anymore? Not sure I've seen one of these.

Thanks. Love Tim's videos. Saw this previously. There are really only a few videos on this watch out there. Guess it's pretty rare in the wild. I would certainly need to see and try one of these on in person before purchasing. Like I said above, I have a blue Datejust and I doubt I would keep both so I need to be sure. Really striking watch.

You're off the white SMPc now??

Seriously though, I love this watch, and it's on my list! IMO, way more special than a date just...and more versatile as well. Hope you can find one.

You of all people know there's room for both LOL

I really want to take a look at one at my AD. I visited an Omega Boutique for the first time this past week. I got to try on the white SMP 300m again (and still love it) and mentioned how I was interested in a white dial. He said hold on and let me look in the safe. Came back out with a white dial Aqua Terra on bracelet for me to try on. I was shocked at how much I liked it and how well it fit. Never gave the AT line much thought until I tried one on.

Man they are just the perfect size and so comfortable. And like you pointed out very versatile. They way they can pull off dress and sport is really impressive. Would be a great one-watch watch. My one concern would be does the blue rubber strap make it TOO casual??? Again, I need to see one in the flesh.

A member on this forum posted many great shots of his about 6-8 months ago. It was blue dial on the blue strap.
