One of each color way, please! I could see myself pairing each color way with my clothing for the day.
I prefer the previous model due to the complexity of the dial and the mix of brushed and polished surfaces on the case. These feel like a step backward for me.
Saffron is tempting me
Fantastic video as always, Alexander! Perfectly shot and edited, with your usual intelligent insights. At first, I thought I'd like the blue or green, but the saffron and, especially, the terracotta look fantastic in all lights. In the water (and I'm very jealous about your pool!), It's the terracotta for me I think!
Thank you very much for the great review. My favorites are the sandstone and saffron versions.
I like a lot the sandstone dial,
Thank you for the great video 🙏
Great video review!! Too many reviewers don’t bother actually showing us the watches!
Your presentation make me doubt to choose among: blue, green, silver or safron. But good job for effort to calibrate the camera to show the right colour for us. Thank you.
I'm still unable to choose the color. But thank you for your help.
Nice video I would go for sandstone or terracotta
Terracotta!! 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you as usual Alexander for the perfect images and the super detailed review.
When these first came out, I fell in love with the colors and in particular with the Saffron and I thought to sell my AQ for one of these, but in the end I changed my mind mainly for the caliber. In my AT I have the 8900 caliber that has the jumping hour features that I think is very useful and much more interesting than the quick date adjustment.
A 39 mm AT with an adjustable bracelet and the 8900 caliber would be my perfect option.
Very thorough! Thanks
Good morning Alexander. Thank you for another first class video. These are all wonderful watches. I just wish that Omega could combine this case and dial options with the 89XX movements, for the time zone option. I understand that this complication needs space, but surely if Tudor can produce the Pro at 39mm, Omega could too. I don't know the dimensions of the 89XX movements so I don't know what's possible here. But this case with the time zone facility would get my money… Have a good weekend everyone 😊
That Sandstone is so so gorgeous….but on the Omega website that colour is called "white"…?
Hands and indexes are rhodium plated over what? Brass?
these models have really grown on me! All extremely handsome and very well executed
Guess these are coming out soon as the marketing efforts are increasing. I am still a bit put off these won't be out until December or January. I get supply issues but it's a little late imo.
Terracotta of course.
The best review on these so far, well done Alexander.
I'm between saffron and red after seeing this.
Truly next level that you've done the calibration and excellent proof how important it is. Your previous omega AF 38mm video, the Atlantic blue was my favorite but it had a hit of green that was different from the bay green and it was what I'd choose. Now with your calibration I can see that Atlantic blue is more "dull" and not for me. Would love for more of this kind of precision!
As for the watch itself, it was so close. Love everything except for the lacking in the fly ajustments. Would be curious to understand what goes into such a decision to not have it because omega 100% have the skill to make it and make one to fit the new look of the AT. If you live in any sort of place with daily temperature changes this watch will never do. You make changes all the time a heck of alot more than you'll ever make use of 150m of water resistant….kinda looses some of the versatility omega seeks
Unfortunatally absolutely to small !!!
Whoever thought that it was a good idea not to apply luminous material on stem of minute hand should be fired and not allowed to design watches anymore. When I have the PlanetOcean on my wrist I can instantly tell the time at a glance, even in darkest places with barely charged lume. While wearing my Aqua Terra watches, however, I have to spend at least a couple of minutes staring at dials to distinguish hour, minute, second hands. What a poor design!
Great review as usual, though.
Please ask Omega to calibrate their inner bezel. Numbers 20, 25, 30, 35, 40 are wrong, they are upside down. Once they fix it, i would buy immediately. Thank you. Gorgeous colors for sure.
Nice watches for the summer indeed, but my AD has not received any of them yet. I hope we can buy them soon enough!
The Terracotta is my pick. Great video!
The instant date change is the coolest feature of these watches
I have to agree with the critics. The dials are certainly lovely and the movement is of course superb, but they failed with the bracelet. First the polished center links are widely disliked, then there's the inexplicable lack of any adjusting mechanism, and finally Omega's pigheaded use of a 19mm lug width. But thanks for the very useful video!
Love the Sandstone! Is the Safron a salmon?
Can you do a video on the globe master?
Sandstone 💪🏼
Thanks a lot for the video showing the watches in true colours! For me it would be the saffron, subtle yet fun colour and the most elegant in my view. I wonder when in comes to the stores to buy in the UK?
can't decide between these and the teak D:
Idk which I would choose would have to see in person! I think terracotta or saffron
Excellent video. I really appreciate the effort that was put into ensuring accurate color reproduction for the benefit of the viewers. If only Omega was that dedicated to delivering to their customers. And to that end, I've got a couple questions that you can pose to Greg Kissling. When Omega redesigns hardware, do they redesign with customer feedback and customer priorities in mind? If they do, why the hell would redesign the bracelet on this model Aqua Terra and NOT include micro adjustment? It's just inexcusable. Customers want it. Customers will pay for it. Not including micro adjustment made it a waste of a redesign.
