I love that terracotta dial! And both of those bracelets make my pants get tight 😄. They both look stunning. The Aqua Terra has been on my radar for a while now, it's going to be my first substantial piece to break away from divers. Ty so much for the close-ups
That black dial any day of the week 💪🏼🤩
I like the new bracelet better than the old.
Red looks good! Goes well with the polished case.
Even better in person.
I would love to know if the new bracelet fits the other OT? Because I would love the teak deck with new bracelet if possible
Hi Brad, an option to avoid Omega's garden fence dial is always welcome, so I'd go for the sunburst finish. Just to be awkward here (as always, I hear you say) I'd go for the blue or green variants.
Thanks Brad, these are both excellent watches. Cheers, Bob 🍻🥨
they arent garden fence, its a teak dial which means its yacht deck that has those teak lines on it. thats what its supposed to be.
@@SupremeNamelessOne I know that Nameless! I've read the "official" version, but this dial always reminds me of my garden fence...
@@robertlock6041 my, my you own a very fancy, flashy garden fence!
@@SupremeNamelessOne You bet!
Why did they have to polish the case sides?
Both look great-I'm surprised how nice the understated black dial looks next to the show-off terracotta. That said, I've had a chance to see and try on both and can say that the terracotta dial is absolutely stunning in person. Unless you're committed to an understated, conservative look, it would be hard to walk away from this pair with the black one! The red is that good. I can add that the difference in the bracelets is immediately noticeable on wrist, with the newer bracelet giving a more comfortable fit.
Any idea when you might see other colors? I like the look of the more understated saffron, for example. Just not sure I could pull off the look-at-me terracotta, as appealing as it otherwise is.
Hopefully soon!
Black dial is timeless unlike the colour ones. Also, the polishing made it too loud.
I Love the bracelet of the aquashades but I want classical colour like Black or dark blue. Brest do you think that Omega will produce the shades in regular colours in the future? Thanks 🎉
Your guess is as good as ours, but I do think they would be welcomed.
Can you please confirm removable half links on the new bracelet. I don't see any.
Double checked this today, and you are correct. There are not any half links.
The long clasp kills it for me.
That Terra cotta looks sharp on your wrist, just sayin…
Do we know if the holes in the lugs are the same? i.e. can you swap the new bracelet with the teak deck 38?
Not sure on that one. Maybe when we get another model in we can have our watchmaker try it.
I enjoyed that comparison video Brad. According to this gentleman the bracelets are interchgeable. ua-cam.com/users/shortsv_gtbj_23l0?feature=share
Yes, you can.
The all polish look is going to look horrendous after a few years of regular wear. There is nothing wrong with a few scratches at all, but you'll be able to see every single one.
Nothing a Cape Cod cloth won't fix
You’re talking about the red dial dressy one?
If yoy cant buy a new sapphire case then you cant buy the watch imo
The bracelet will look much worse on the teak deck model than the shades
The shades dial just looks like crap next to the good old teak deck dial.
Most would disagree. You must have the old one.😂
@@sensible202 Your kids must be a ho*es going by your logic. Most would agree. Haha
@@sensible202Most would actually agree.
I'm one of them.
@@sensible202 I just bought a teak deck dial tonight over shades. They are too blingy looking and don't look as good in stores, although the greenish one pops.
@@lamentate07 do you think some may like blingy?
Why does omega avoid making these in the 41 mm more popular size?
38mm too small.
Perfect fit for him.
Are the center links on bracelet solid or hallow?
Solid
