New Aqua Terra 8900!

Just took delivery of this Omega Aqua Terra! The watch itself is beautiful, comfortable, and light! The dial changes from slate to blueish to grey, and I definitely think it can be dressed up or down. Also, I may try and pick up the steel bracelet for it.

Nice!

I have the same one but with a white dial, only thing I don't like is the clasp, it's bulky and catches on most shirt cuffs.

But it's a great watch.

Beautiful Aqua Terra. I have an older quartz one that I was gifted and while I enjoy it, wish it would have been an Automatic. Really love how yours has the horizontal lines across the dial.

I have the 38.5 "Skyfall" with the framed date at 3 and vertical lines. Didn't like the "Master Co-Ax" that lost the frame; looked unbalanced. I like the date at 6, but I wonder why they didn't keep the lines vertical to lead the eye to the date window.

Personally I like the horizontal lines, but I see what you are saying about vertical lines leading the eyes to the date window.

Congratulations. That’s a great looking watch. I think this new version is excellent. The AT line is my favorite line Omega offers but it’s is very difficult to keep up with all the changes. I was going to buy one a few years back and then they dropped the date window and polished the bracelet. Those small changes stopped me. These changes are pretty big: new date location, horizontal lines, more dial color options and strap bracelet combination. I’m a fan again.
