Incoming....New Aqua Terra

Today I bought the Grey faced 41mm Aqua Terra on a rubber strap and loving it so far. I currently have a Rolex Sub and wanted to get another Rolex. However, after looking at the new Rolex releases, there is no Rolex watch that I want or longing for. When I popped into the Rolex AD last week this beauty struck my fancy, the place I go to has Rolex and Omega watches. So I decided to pick this up today as it is a nice refreshing change. See the attached pics and Happy Halloween

Beautiful dial colors; they contrast nicely.

May I ask what are the three outer dimensions of the nice case?

Beautiful choice! I went looking for a new Rolex at my AD last week and ended up with the gray-blue dial Aqua Terra with the rubber strap. Love the gray dial too.

Congrats! I love it!

I think the Aqua Terra is the classiest looking tool watch out there. Sorry Rolex, but that includes your line, too.

Congrats, love the AT. I’ve had my gray dial for almost nine years. Other than the no
Micro adjustment, it’s a pretty great watch. Enjoy!

Thanks if the date compliment was directed at me.

This is my second AT. I liked the first one, wasn’t wearing it much, traded it in, missed it, got this one (new watch, old stock) last Xmas. Did not realize that I wouldn’t see the inside of an AD for a long time.

I also like the trapezoidal shape of the date window.

Yes the compliment was meant for you. If a new "old" Aqua Terra with the date in the 3pm position was available I would snap it up.

Jealous of your watch but loving mine though.

All the best

Nfld, yours is sharp. The color is unusual and attractive. We both have great blued hands!
