I’ve owned this same watch for about a month and love it. Love the look and the quality of the case, dial and movement are all top shelf. Very nice to access the test results of your individual watch via the Omega website. You hit on the very few drawbacks and which are not near a deal breaker for me personally. In hindsight and this is a personal preference, I at times, wish I’d opted for the dial with the more bold silver “Seamaster” inscription (220.10.41.21.03.002). The blue shown in this video is very subtle and difficult to read. Trivial perhaps, but something to consider. I highly recommend the Aqua Terra either as your one watch or as an addition.
Thanks for sharing those thoughts! Yeah I did look closely at the 002 model and the differences, which as you pointed out are rather subtle. In the end I don't mind either, and the fact that this one is the "001" is good enough to sway me :)
I owned the older version with vertical lines, Blue dial. Loved it but Sold it to get the new Seamaster Pro 300m. I just sold the Seamaster to buy this. Crazy. The Shade of blue on the AT is so much more beautiful than the Seamaster and it’s much more versatile to wear in more situations. Great review. Thanks&Cheers!
Thanks for sharing that - too bad you couldn’t keep both... I think the new SMP 300m is a great watch but if I really had to pick only one it would be this AT :)
I’ve just bought the very same watch after 6 weeks of deliberation. I originally wanted an oyster perpetual but tried this on and fell in love with it. I couldn’t get it out of my head but I was also taken by a Grand Seiko. The blue dial Aquaterra just had too much of what I love though and so I bought it. I can’t get this watch to stay in the box, I just have to stare at it; it has so much going on while still being able to look conservative. Of course there’s also the movement which just screams quality! When I put it on it just makes me feel amazing in myself. It’s better than a Rolex perpetual in every way apart from its sell on value (I’m never selling it anyway). The grand seiko has an even more accurate time keeping and if buy one of those too. The Finish on the GS is ludicrously good but there’s nothing I don’t love about my Omega.
Congratulations mate! The current Master Chronometer movements are, I think, the best 3 hand movements in the world. GS is more accurate because it uses quartz regulation but otherwise the resistance testing of the Omega blows everything else away. If you are in position to grab an OP of your choosing, then I envy you. I wish I could do that but the local dealers just won’t sell to me. As you say, it is technically an inferior watch but it is Rolex and a purchase is a no brainer when you can sell for profit if you truly don’t like it.
It’s a great watch. I’ve tried on the green, blue and white dials which all have their own character. I’d also prefer the arrow on the hour hand. The blue is pretty but my pick is the white as it’s such a fun watch. I wouldn’t bother comparing it with a Datejust as that’s such a conservative design compared.
Hi Ivan Thanks for all the reviews of 2020, a year I and I'm sure most of us will be glad to see the back of, have a wonderful Christmas and a happy and safe new year.
Drooling already here... :D And you're just off by one from my favourite AT, which is the 002-model with the blue seconds-hand. But having seen four or five of them in the flesh and side by side, I think nearly all models are absolute beauties. I could even live with the polished bracelet - even though the AD assured me they could brush those for me should I decide to buy the watch. :)
Thanks for sharing the thoughts - this was obtained second hand for a good price so I didn’t have the luxury of choice as such, but looking through the range I think this would still have been the one I picked :)
I fell in love with this watch so I took the wife to the local Omega Boutique and I picked up the green dial version and she got a nice diamond constellation with the aventurine dial. We also got a 15% discount.
Love it. Colors are so perfect. So beautiful, I almost bought this exact model the first time I saw it and tried it on. Really do wish it had micro-adjusts, as that annoys me about my speedmaster; hope they fix that in the future, as I would love one of these. Thanks for all the great reviews in 2020 (and also really appreciated the expert pulmonologist's pov on the virus)!! Love the channel. Hippy holydaze from New Mexico!
I recently bought one of these and I love it! In my opinion this is the perfect every day watch. Every day I look in my watch case to choose the watch of the day, but since I own this one, it's often on my wrist. A stunning piece.
Another great review Ivan. I'm not in the Omega price bracket and so I've been looking at the Phylida AT homage through Ali Express. I wonder if you might get a review going for that at some stage in the NY. Merry Xmas to you and all your subscribers.
Nice review. I bought in November the 38mm Aqua Terra with white/silver dial and blackened hands. Very versatile watch, superb accuracy (+2s per day). The downside is the lack of micro adjustment on the bracelet. I'm considering to get the rubber straps as well, but it's so overpriced.
Love it, pretty much perfection... I will have an Omega one day (hopefully in 2021 🤞🏻) Happy Xmas everyone & have a healthy and successful new year. Keep up the good work. Cheers for helping keep us sane in a very tricky 2020 🎅🏻🥃👍🏻
a beautiful watch. the clasp is the only deal-breaker for me, scandalous that it doesnt have a microadjust at this price point, but I suppose the clasp could be swapped...
Beautiful watch from Omega. I have two Seamaster 300 watches. A black dial auto and a blue dial quartz. Bought both used and they look new. Great watches. They are 41mm not the newer 42mm size. Just love them both. Great review as always.
I am having an Omega one of these days, but not yet. Fabulous movement, great case and bracelet. Dial isn't great and that minute hand would really annoy me. It wouldn't get used as a diver (by anyone) so I think the lume would not be a problem. That box is far too nice to stick in the cupboard for ever 10 minutes after taking delivery
Thanks for the thoughts... actually I think the lume will be fine for a dive, as you don’t need it to last that long. It’s at the end of a night in bed (say 7 hours) where it’s a bit dim.
A beautiful watch Ivan. All the very best to you & your family over Christmas & New Year! I’ve enjoyed your reviews during the year mate! Cheers from the other side of Oz👍🏼🍻...central Victoria 😎
Excellent video as always sir... Once question because it struck me quite quickly: why were the spare links the tank tracks style from a seamaster diver 300 and not the aqua terra? Just curious! :-)
Thanks! Oh that is VERY well spotted sir! You are the only one so far who has commented as such - that’s because I used my Seamaster 300m box (the AT box was at another location). It’s identical of course, and so is the manual :)
That sure is a beautiful watch. I can even deal with the unspinnable qc issue in this case. Happy Holidays, and looking forward to more good content during 2021 (and also that life will get better for all of us).
@@PerthWAtch that where the magic are coming from those Guy.These watchmaker give a soul print to their watch and that the diference beetwin some watch maker and some "pretending" watchmaker. Nice video as always by the way and hello from frence🙏🏽
Great review, subscribed! I own both a green dial AT and a bond SMP300 (the best iteration imo 🙂) I think maybe one of the reasons it's priced above tne 300m is because it used the 8900 movement in the PO perhaps? Although the 39mm PO ad 38mm AT use the 8800 calibre and they aren't any cheaper...
You make a good point there, but I think it’s still a bit more random than that. For example, there are all steel (no ceramic bezel or Liquid Metal) Constellation models using the 8800 movement that retail higher than this Aqua Terra. It seems to me that in general, the more “formal” or fancy a model is, the higher the price, regardless of the actual material or specs 🤷🏻♂️
just bought a aqua Terra green dial, getting discounts on any luxury goods here in Perth at the moment is difficult as people are spending big time hence low stock. Enjoyed your review, thanks.
@@PerthWAtch Things have changed since september, i went to king st before christmas on a sunday morning, L Vuitton Gucci Channel all had lines just to get in. Ended up getting the watch from Kennedys, no stock (green dial) and will be 10-12 weeks before arrival. Could have sourced one through Hardys but at a cost.
Hi there, fellow CC here looking at buying this watch as this year has taught me the importance of time 😩 Can you also purchase the rubber straps separately as I live in a hot country?
Hi Ivan. I've enjoyed your channel throughout 2020 and look forward to your reviews 2021. I love the Aqua Terra, much nicer that the Seamaster 300 diver. Have a great Christmas and new year..
When I look broader at their range it seems, that other things being equal, dressier pieces (stainless steel, not precious metals) are priced higher for some irrational reason.
@@PerthWAtch I always thought they wanted to keep the 300m and Speedmaster at a lower price as they are very popular models. Regardless the AT should not cost more, odd pricing.
This watch has been in 3 Bond Movies.. " There is a video on David's Channel "The Bond Experience" About The Aqua Terra and they Highlight every scene it is in.
Good review. I have recently purchased the same watch. But now I've developed a new worry: that the blue accents will eventually fade. Is this a valid concern?
Thanks for the videos! This Omega is such a great piece. On my list for sure. I cannot decide if I want an Aqua Terra, a Railmaster, or a Planet Ocean next. Help! I have a 300M, and it is lovely and comfortable, but I regret not getting a co-axial, so that is next.
Most welcome. Well if you’re going for a second Omega after the 300m, for the benefit of diversity I’d say Railmaster is the way... although for myself I went differently for practical reason.
I recently saw all three at the Omega Boutique in Sydney. I certainly don't like the polished centre links on the Aqua Terra. Jody on JOMW had them buffed to a satin finish (once stuffed up and then corrected) on his personal AT. I wish Omega would offer a choice of bracelets (polished cenfrelinksa and satinised). The Rail Master denim dial looks a bit odd but the patina Ted dial version is a killer. .
Just got the aqua terra 8900 with the grey dial. Will be using this as my dress watch. Also have the seamaster planet ocean gmt 8900 oreo bezel. Very impressed with omega watches. Was considering a 41mm datejust but am disgusted with the Rolex AD'S. Omega is better value bang per buck. I also have a Submariner which is my grail but I like omega better.
@@PerthWAtch The response i received when I asked about being on a wait list for a steel Daytona. They responded sarcastically basically saying good luck... I love Rolex watches. Can't stand the BS games they play. They're losing customers including me. Omega makes superb pieces and the AD'S more gracious for your business.
Ah I see... I think they will sell me an OP but a steel Daytona, yeah, even existing long term customers would be lucky to get one. Omega on the other hand, you can get your hands on just about any model you like.
How much discount did you get for your aqua terra? I’m not sure how much I should go for. Also, did you get it from a Omega boutique or a generic boutique carrying omega watches (like Watches of Switzerland)?
Is there any benefit of this reference over the previous vertical texture, with the 3 o-clock date window? I love the AT, may be looking at a used version and i like the vertical texture a little better.
Why yeah, the movement is a MASSIVE technological advancement! The dial texture and date position are really just aesthetic choices, neither version is objectively superior in that respect.
The watch is beautiful, but do they really think they can get away with such an un-spinnable box at this price point? Seriously Omega, sort yourselves out.
I have a lot of "affordable" watches like Citizen, Seiko, Tissot, Islander, G-shock and more. If I ever will get a luxuary watch this one is the most interesting! I would like that it was no date, but at 6 o' clock is better than 3 o' clock.
Wide angle cameras often used in RUclips videos generally make watches look at least 20% bigger than it really is on the wrist in close ups. Just take a photo of the same watch on a wrist with a 28mm vs a 50mm lens and you'll see the difference.
I’ve owned this same watch for about a month and love it. Love the look and the quality of the case, dial and movement are all top shelf. Very nice to access the test results of your individual watch via the Omega website.

The date should have moved back after passing 12 o'clock mark. However it didn't. I don't believe that's normal
It did, but it only moves back once per 24 hours, which is what we all want ;)
When moving backwards the date changes around 7-8 pm and that is as its supposed to be.
Nice but its no Corguet . LOL
That’s for sure! LOL
Scratches on the case? I got mine, wore it briefly, and noted I have a scratch on my case. No idea how it happened.
Almost certainly from banging against a hard surface
Great channel! Merry Vaccine for a Happyier New Year!
Haha thanks man! Here’s to a better 2021!
I have a lot of "affordable" watches like Citizen, Seiko, Tissot, Islander, G-shock and more.
If I ever will get a luxuary watch this one is the most interesting!
I would like that it was no date, but at 6 o' clock is better than 3 o' clock.
That’s cool! Thanks :)
That is one watch that I will forgive the low spin rate I still want one
Haha as did I mate, as did I :)
What do you mean by spin rate?
@@xModernHelpfare2x he spins the package is on the table it's been kind of an ongoing thing he's been doing
Fabulous watch I love it 👍 thanks Ivan great review
Thanks James :)
@@PerthWAtch oh and happy Xmas 🎄🎄🎄
Merry Christmas to you as well!!
My next watch.
Awesome!!!
A Jubilee bracelet would enhance the look.
Hmm… interesting thought. Don’t think Omega is going to copy Rolex though…
Best Pagani Design homage I've seen so far
Yeah definitely the best one!
I’ve always wanted one of these, but that spin was a great disappointment. May your festivus be merry!
Thank you - wishing you a great Christmas also :)
Festivus for the rest of us
Glorious 👍 👍 👍
Thanks :)
Yea they price it higher because they think the Polished center links "Make It Look for Expensive"
Mystery solved 😂
@@PerthWAtch lol
super upload
Thanks :)
It's an Omega,always great..............................
Haha thank you :)
You should have chosen the 38mm version, this one is too big on your wrist... great review otherwise...
Thanks for sharing your view. 38mm is too small - this one fits 100% perfect on my wrist :)
Wide angle cameras often used in RUclips videos generally make watches look at least 20% bigger than it really is on the wrist in close ups. Just take a photo of the same watch on a wrist with a 28mm vs a 50mm lens and you'll see the difference.
100% agree, I don’t need to take photos with different focal lengths to know that.
What is not certain is what I might do with this “info”.
WOW !
YEAH!!
My grail! since I got it, can't take it off!
Yeah I feel very similar!
Terrible spin rating. Omega take note!
Oh yeah seriously man...
