First Watch, First Omega
I’ve been lurking on TRF for years now, waiting until I could purchase my first watch to post anything significant.
About five years ago, I made a career change that required another four years of school (shout-out Tax LLMs). It was a tough road to travel and I’m fortunate to be in a position where I can now indulge this hobby fully and reward myself for hard work. I expected my first purchase to be a DJ36, but found myself less enamored with the DJ and more by this AT. I kept going back to this watch and bought it last night from a local AD. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the purchase and am grateful for the opportunity to own it and share my experience with all of you. |

Congrats and great choice. That one is my favorite AT configuration (although I haven’t seen the new green IRL yet)!

Congratulations! That Aqua Terra is a great all-around watch. My first nice watch was an Omega and I really love the brand.
