Latest addition.

I've maintained the Aqua Terra is not only Omegas best looking watch but possibly the best looking watch in modern mass-produced watchmaking. To me, it's perfect.

I've owned the grey dial but the opaline has a certain something that makes it sporty and classic at the same time

Old Expat Beast · 22 July 2014, 01:06 PM

That's a beauty Joe....might have to investigate further. Congratulations

soho · 22 July 2014, 01:09 PM

Congrats Joe, that is stunning!

Presa canary · 22 July 2014, 01:12 PM

Awesome pickup. I agree with your thoughts as far as looks, only difference to me is it would have to be the blue dial

teqp · 22 July 2014, 01:12 PM

Congrats, that is nice. I have to agree that my next Omega will be the AT. I prefer the blue dial, but yours is right up there as well.

Kevin.S · 22 July 2014, 01:33 PM

I love that Omega !! I miss my 36mm DateJust,,,,,but I might opt for the Aqua Terra:)

repoman · 22 July 2014, 01:36 PM

I find the AT's extremely pleasing to the eye. Congrats!!!

Nycturbovr6 · 22 July 2014, 02:31 PM

Congrats!

I own a blue dial AT and am a big fan. The opaline dial would be my second choice. Congrats on a great choice.

joe100 · 22 July 2014, 07:43 PM

All of the ATs are gorgeous. The new one with the orange second hand is very nice

joe100 · 24 July 2014, 03:19 PM

Still enjoying this one!

SUBversive · 24 July 2014, 09:52 PM

Congrats. Enjoy.

raky · 24 July 2014, 11:49 PM

Congrats! I have one with the teak dial. I love it and actually have been toying with the idea of putting it on a strap as 3 of my 4 watches have metal bands.

ck1109 · 25 July 2014, 12:25 AM

Congrats! I have the blue mid-size. I agree with you, AT is one of the best modern Omega designs, imo.

joe100 · 25 July 2014, 12:42 AM

Thanks guys!!

Fez217 · 25 July 2014, 06:30 AM

Great taste in watches!!

AK797 · 25 July 2014, 09:56 AM

I agree Joe, ATs are my fav line of Omega, esp love the blue dial.

sea-dweller · 25 July 2014, 11:18 AM

It's a beauty!

I have been looking at this model for quite awhile and as someone who has been critical of Omega in the past I really must agree with you. It is about as perfect looking a watch as one can find for its price.

and congratulations!

THAT is a fantastic looking watch!

Hairdude1 · 25 July 2014, 04:08 PM

Congrats!

Congrats! I'm a huge fan of the AT.

Neunundneunzig · 30 July 2014, 05:48 AM

Very nice. Enjoy it and wear it in health!

sco · 30 July 2014, 07:44 AM

Congrats, on picking up a great and extremely versatile piece. I bought the 41.5mm 8500 Grey when my second daughter was born. It's a very sentimental piece to me and I wear it on most special occasions. I also wear it during meetings for work, as it's my goto dress watch. All of the dials are nice in their own way as you said, and all of them can be worn down or dressed up. Enjoy it for a long time...
