Omega

Hello all
i am toying with the idea of purchasing this watch and currious as to whether anyone has one or reviews
Looked through the forum and not much there.
Currently i have the ploprof with the cal8500 and really like it. Have been thinking about adding another omega to my collection
Any thoughts
Much appreciate it

Hi sirjun,

if you go to the Omega forum and enter your keyword in the search engine, you would find this post for example:

Hope this helps,

. . . is a top-drawer complicated tool watch, Alex. The accuracy and precision of the sample Omega lent me was outstanding, and the instantaneous change at the end of the month is the icing on the cake. If you like the aesthetics . . .

. . . and can handle the considerable bulk, then it's worth checking out. Cordially, Art

I have the same model that Art reviewed last autumn, if you can handle the new ProProf the Aqua Terra Annual Calendar should not come as a problem, but depends what you're looking for to complement the ProProf or what occasions you would wear your next Omega.

Regards, Will

my interest in the watch lies primarily as a collector.
i like to pick up neat and somewhat unique pieces either from mechanical design or style point.
the annual calendar appears to me to be  just that...silicone balance set up, annual calendar etc make it a very interesting time piece for me.

the production of this watch also appears to me in many ways to parallel the "re-making" of the brand in a very positive way and in some ways, the parallel of what Panerai did with their 233 production. In house movement, robust and accurate in a very elegant case.
i am expecting to get mine early next week
thanks

. . . Ploprof, while substantially larger than the AT ac, is easier to tolerate on an aesthetic level. Not entirely sure why, but the asymmetrical shape and turret-like construction are probably the main contributors.

Please share a photo or two with us when you have a chance . . . cordially, Art

...but the base Aqua Terra model would do for me. I have no use for the annual calendar function so I would rather save the difference and credit it towards the next purchase.

The Annual Calendar should serve your purpose better then.
