Aqua Terra 41 feedback

Anybody own of these?

I've been thinking about getting a white dial on rubber version, but would like to get some feedback from owners.

Seems like a nice sporty watch that can be dressed up a bit with a leather strap, is it a pain to change the rubber strap with the new metal insert at the lugs? Not sure if that hooks into the case somehow (like the Aquanaut), if so that it makes it a pain to switch.

Thanks

I have the 38mm black dial and it's an exceptionally nice watch. While I've never taken my rubber strap off, I can tell you the metal pieces are not integrated into the case but are a part of the strap itself. Should be no more difficult to remove than a bracelet, probably less.

I had the 41mm in white. Sold it. Looking at the 38. Depends on your wrist size.

So I did... I like it, so far so good.

Straps are super each to change

I think I recall the rubber strap has some sort of clever "quick-change" design for its attachment to the case, but I'm not sure on this. Can anyone confirm?

Nope, it uses regular spring bars.

Must admit I wasn't really a huge fan of the horizontal lines when they came out. I have the silver dialer vertical lines version with the gold markers on leather.

Having seen these photos above they look great and very versatile. A little more sporty than the vertical lines I think. If I didn't already have an AT I would buy one in a heartbeat. They're a great watch and I actually like the thickness of them. The slightly domed crystal is also a feature I really like.

Best “one watch” on the market. I’ve had every iteration of the DJ and this is better. Btw - looking at your signature I’ve owned them all except the Lange. I know this is crazy talk but I like my AT the best.
