I'll keep my current AT 8500

Glad to see Omega changing things up, like the dial pattern, the reshape of the case, and the date relocation, but I'll keep my current Aqua Terra over the new any day.

You and me both. My blue dial, 38.5mm, vertical stripe AT with silver date window is perfect. Not digging the new AT's much. I do like 1957 trilogy pieces they released though.

hmmm...I kind of like the new offering. The symmetry of the date at 6 o'clock is appealing, especially with the silver/orange. Always loved the orange Exp 2 hand on the polar, but the 42mm doesn't sit right on my wrist. This might be a nice "light" dial option with a pop of color. Interested to see it on a bracelet.

Looks pretty good to me, white dial and orange hand especially.

These were my exact same thoughts when I saw it.

I like what Omega did, but for me the AT is my go anywhere watch. It looks great with jeans, as well as a suit, and in between with a nice button down and slacks for a business meeting. I see the new version being much more sporty. The blue looks the best to me out of the new.

The more interesting versions are only in the large size again. Sigh.

If the white/orange was in 38mm I'd be keen. Maybe next year Omega will give us (me) a 38mm AT in colors other than the safe blue, grey or black options.

I prefer the previous models. Is the larger watch case trend making a comeback?
