Another great video! I traded my IWC Mark XVIII for an Aqua Terra 8900, grey dial. I love it, and it's so much more watch than the IWC, apart from its lume - the minute hand just gets lost in the dial at night. Still, that 8900 is fantastic! The timezone function makes it pretty useful for us aviators.

Great review, Evan! Couldn't agree with you more. I've only owned my AT since 2019, but it was the first watch that caught my eye when I got into the hobby in 2017. I genuinely think it would be my pick to keep if I had to get rid of every watch in my collection except for one. As you mentioned, it can cover pretty much every single base when it comes to lifestyle, which is a major plus for people wanting a one watch collection.

Couldn’t be happier with my purchase in this lovely piece.

@SinnerAndSaint3 жыл бұрын
I agree - the Aqua Terra is awesome! I owned the black version on the rubber strap 2 years ago. In the end I sold it because it was a little too thick for me and I missed the quick set date as this wasn't my only and also not my travel watch. Additionally I don't like the crown action and perception of it. It didn't feel secure between my fingers while winding the watch after it stopped before. Yeah that's a lot of small pet peeves but in the end all together just prevented me from keeping it. Nevertheless this is more of a personal perception and I also think that the watch itself is one of the best choices in the price range! Great presentation as always!

I Agree with you completely. This is the perfect 1-Watch-Collection. And MUCH better than the Data Just. The only reason I haven‘t bought it is that I already own specific watches: a dedicated dive watch, a dress watch, a field/aviator watch… but this one could do it all. And maybe I will add it to my collection since this is the perfect travel watch you could wear for every event - beach to blazer.

@@YoureTerrific That's fair. But I'd rather occasionally use two crown position to readjust the time (Omegas are very accurate so it wouldn't be too much of a hassle) while being able to quickly change hours when power reserve has run out, when timesaving comes twice a year, or when I travel (as you said).

Your remark on the need to try it on your wrist is sooooo true. For all watches! I was more or less set on bying the black or blue dial version of the aqua terra last year as my first mechanical watch. After doing a lot of research online (what else to do during covid, right?) it seemed like the correct and most obvious choice of all time. On paper. However, when I eventually got to try them on, it didn't "feel" right. For captain overly rational, that was a real letdown.

Not so sure about that. Santos is a better looking, more stylish watch. In addition, the quick switch and smart link systems + the alternate strap makes the Santos very, very versatile. The Santos is also antimagnetic to 1,200 gauss (!). That said, bug advantage to AT with 150M water resistance and screw down crown. All that said, AT is an excellent GADA watch but I would give the Santos the nod.
