Aqua Terra Worldtimer

I’m considering on pulling the trigger on this one. I saw it being promoted in 2019 and just fell in love with it. My line of work involves quite a bit of traveling, not that it matters much since cellphones do the job, but we are watch enthusiasts here. Anybody in this forum have one that can share some pics and details about it. Haven’t seen one in person just yet. I want to try one on see how it wears beforehand but pictures on wrists do help. Cheers.

Good for you OP! I've always loved the idea of this watch, but I've never seen one in person. In looking at it, it seems to "show up" very inconsistently in the couple of pics / videos I've seen. Sometimes it looks as if the dial is perfectly matched, sometimes it looks like the central globe-relief is kind of stuck on; sometimes it appears the crystal creates weird shadowing. I think it is just photographic artifacts. If anyone who owns it has seen anything that says "Yup, that's how it looks in real life ...", I'd be really interested.

I have one. If you want any other pics, shoot me a PM and I'd be happy to arrange a photoshoot! The globe does not look applied. There's great color and topography that go into it. It really sticks out, more in the sun, but in any light.
