Omega Aqua Terra Shades is THE rainbow GADA watch

It's no secret that colourful, everyday watches really kicked off in the last few years, surely contributed to by the awful pandemic dreariness. Omega was a brand that got in on the action early, outfitting a quintet of Aqua Terras in colourful, yet subtle, sunburst dials at the start of 2022. The 38mm Aqua Terra is the perfect canvas for this type of watch, with ideal specs for everyday wear, with equal capability for dressing up or down. A year later, Omega went one step further, introducing new colours and a few tweaks that tidy up the design, making it an even more compelling choice for potential buyers.

I really like this new 'Shades' collection within the Aqua Terra line. But imho Omega is still suffering from the too thick cases because their own Master Chronometer movements are just too thick. Prices are also WAY over the top. I bought my Aqua Terra 150m for around 3.2k Euros in 2017. Retail was around 3.6k back then. And now they charge 7.2k Euros for pretty much the same watch model with the exact same movement?! That's a solid 100% price increase in just 6 years. Sorry Omega, but that's just ridiculous. (For comparison: The Submariner Date 116610LN was 7.3k Euros in 2015 and is now 10.1k retail in 2023. That's not even 28% in 8 years. And the current 126610LN reference for that money does have a completely new movement with noticable improvements in multiple aspects. So you can clearly say that Omega's trying to move upwards but with no noticable improvements instead which I think isn't a very honarable move by them...)

been wanting that green (and kinds love the others too) since the original press renders, just cant quite find enough cash, by the time I collect enough, the prices go up, and as of now, just think they are too pricey .. love them, but need it nearer to £4k

Tried them on and they look and wear amazingly. But the lack of on the fly micro adjustments in the bracelet is so frustrating, especially for the price

They withdrew the whole collection because of the date-window issue and kept taking orders, so I guess just keep waiting

I'll stick to my 8500 Skyfall model, better movement and much better dial. Just hoping they release a 41mm version purely for the bracelet.

Still too expensive. They’re great watches but I think 15-20% higher than they should be.

@orangedan5424 8 ай бұрын

For 10k...I need more features to justify the price tag. Bump up the power to at least 72hrs....why use butterfly clasp? Should have used something with on the fly adjustment.

@DexterAlenko 7 ай бұрын

Got the blue version and sold it after 2 weeks because of buyers remorse. Lost 35% of value but didnt care since the bracelet is really bad without micro-adjust. Also simply too thick. My speedmaster wears thinner than the ATs.

@Max.Effect 7 ай бұрын

I love these watches. The dials, the dimensions, the bracelet, all is for me. But there is one thing that keep me away from buying : the all polished case. I hate it. Too simple, too fragile. I don't understand that.

@Bestow3000 7 ай бұрын

Really? The polished case? Not the measly 50 hour power reserves or lack of micro adjustment to the bracelet all for such a steep price?

@theoverlord1925 8 ай бұрын

Firstly I would only consider the 41 mm version as 38 mm is too small for the average man in my opinion. Secondly the clasp is not great , they should have some kind of micro adjust on the fly as it a dressy sports watch , but still a sports watch or sportier watch style , the proof is in the colour of the dials.Lastly the price , almost 11 grand for one these ? I don’t think so mes amis….

@waterfordrs22 8 ай бұрын

38mm is in no way too small for the average man. It’s not a small watch, asat. A friend of mine has one and it has plenty of presence. I own a Railmaster which uses a 40mm AT case, the advantage of my watch is that being minus a date window, slightly thinner.

@jimster1981 26 күн бұрын

We're coming to the end of the large case size (41 mm or above) era for everyday watches. 38 mm is the sweet spot for most wrist sizes.

@nathanshelby1446 8 ай бұрын

To me omega is just boring, they need to stop playing it safe and come out with some new models.

@ugabrew 7 ай бұрын

Not even new models… they just need to actually improve their existing models. Thinner movements and cases, longer power reserves, BRUSHED bracelets, and microadjust clasps. Omega’s response: “What if we did none of that and just hiked up the price?”
