A comment on the 1st picture........

Lol, while I was admiring my own pictures I noticed something about the first picture that I hope many of you did as well. Do you notice the superb quality of the double sided anti reflection coating of the sapphire crystal?????? Notice how the sapphire crystal has just disappeared????? You feel like you are looking right into the dial. I congratulate Omega for going the extra mile and implementing double sided anti reflection on the sapphire crystal. In truth, a brilliant dial like the AT GMT deserves nothing less!! Naturally it added to the expense of the watch, but nothing is more truer than the old adage that #### #### #### #####.

I now feel like I did an injustice to my AT GMT in not highlighting the superb quality of the double sided AR coating. My final jugdement on the watch is that the watch lacks absolutely nothing in terms of features. The Aqua Terra GMT is remarkable for its completeness and fullness of design. Omega Magic at its best!!!!!!!

Follow up review of the stunning Aqua Terra GMT

By: Pistol Pete : August 22nd, 2010-09:35

I originally intended to do a review of my some of my wife's beautiful Omega's but I decided to do a follow up of the AT GMT, with new pictures, as I think it would be more interesting to forum members. I've also received emails regarding my AT GMT (and m...

Thanks for sharing your first-hand experience. One question.

Does it mention in your manual whether the pushers are water resistant to the level where it is operable when submerged? I'm not asking to really use the chronograph underwater. Just say, for example, when you wear it in a pool without any intention to us...

Continuous seconds sub-dial

Hi Pete, Thanks for the wonderful photos. I agree with you that there is much to like about this Seamaster GMT. In fact your original post sparked enough interest for me to take a good look at one at the Omega Boutique. The only issue I had with the desig...

interesting observations but opinions differ on the matter

The seconds subdial of the AT GMT shares the same layout as the Rolex Daytona and the Speedy pro, which I believe are the standard for classic chronograph design. In classical terms, you're asking for a level of precision that is normally expected to be f...

There are examples of both styles ...

Hi Pete, We could probably find plenty of examples of both styles, but just to demonstrate what I was referring to across several brands in both vintage and modern pieces, dress and sport chronographs, here are some images from the archives. Both designs ...

A very persuasive argument Andrew, I'll give you that!

By: Pistol Pete : August 31st, 2010-08:10

The examples you gave clearly show that full 60 second markers on a subdial can look very elegant indeed. You have thoroughly convinced me of that. I now think I overstated the case. I like the Blancpain and Breguet best. I also share your sentiment regar...
