You guys have the best video of the Aquis in green. It really shows the sunburst and how it looks in different lighting. A great video for my referencing cause i may just get this watch soon. Thanks Christine Jewellers!
It's so beautiful I had to buy it and a blue one as well. Who needs a Rolex, Breitling, Tudor or Omega when you have 2 of these for even less. Fantastic.
@Harry Balls The sellita is half the price, although I have a couple of older ones with it and they have been superb for many years as well as easy to service. I think we get a little carried away with the in house movement thing. Have you ever tried to get a Rolex serviced? What a drama. You wish in that moment it had a Selita or ETA. More is not always better.
@Harry Balls That's fair enough. I have a Rado captain cook powernatic 80 hour and a Longines Conquest 2892 running at 2 & 1 secs respectively. Longines sits so well on wrist too, better than my Rolexes honestly. Hydroconquest and CW Trident could be the value packs in the segment although an Oris Aquis can be picked up on the pre owned market at a great price. It's still my favourite on the rubber or titanium strap for weight reduction. Oris Tt1 44mm with black / red bezel and classic kettle shape case is the most comfortable watch I've ever experienced. As nice as a Rolex is, I wouldn't spend big money on a watch again unless for investment purposes. I've realised that no one but you cares about what you have on the wrist. I get much more attention and compliments when I wear my cheaper watches. Even a solar gshock steel. Its true.
I have submariner 41. A Seadweller 43 red and a 42 Explorer 2. Not gonna begin to tell you how much they cost. All new too. Had them for a year and not one person has ever even noticed, askesd or mentioned them. Then I wear my chineae Steeldive Tuna NH 35 on a mesh bracelet or my Helm Khuraburi and people will comment. It's incredible. It will be a few years before the Rollers are due for a service and I'm hoping to move them on before that as the thought of taking them.in is just too daunting. I worry about stuffing or hitting them. I worry about going near salt water. I worry about getting mugged if anyone ever did actually notice. Really not worth the head ache. They have a nice bezel and crown action. They are accurate and well made but I have better looking watches and more comfortable watches without getting in to detail, they don't hug the wrist as they should and do lack some design and aesthetics evolution. So if you don't own one, you are not missing anything spectacular bar a nice movement. Trust me.
@Harry Balls I do love Longines, not sure if I like them more than the Aquis which really is a well built piece. Probably in oar. I do know the ETA in my conquest is exceptional. When I first bought it, I remeber it running for 3 days before it lost 1 second I couldn't believe it. The fact that it looks and feels better on wrist than my other prized possessions is actually disturbing. I paid $1400 new, Australian dollars which is around $1000 € I'm guessing. Yeah sometimes you really need to look at the options. Ps. I have a orange dial monster too. Great watch. The way the lugs and bracelet drop nicely around my wrist on many of my pieces is something Rolex can certainly learn from for starters. Then I question why many of my pieces that I have mentioned gave better legibility and clarity than the Rollers. Very strange but true. As for the captain cook. It is a 45mm titanium hypothermia. Has great presence and legibility but does fall short in some aspects, like wide lugs, poor quality bezel, slippery crown, no micro adjustment, looks fantastic though. I think the 42mm is a little better however, but still not as good as the Oris.
@Harry Balls I do like the Certina for sure. I have my hands full atm and have exceeded my 12 limit and am up to 16. Need to trim my collection somehow. Value for money, The certina and Longines would certainly be targets. otherwise. Love my 41mm black dial conquest. Highly recommended. Just hate the butterfly clasps though. No micro adjustment. Don't dislike the Captain Cook and I'm sure the 42mm is fine. Just have a play around with the bezel and the crown first. But for the money, the hydroconquest, CW trident or DS for me.

Beautiful watch
Beautiful watch. 41.5mm Green is the way to go.
It's... beautiful!
love this watch
It's very nice.
What is your wrist size please?
I love this
Con này rât đẹp
이쁘다
nice but BIG
has to be big its a pure diving watch the case has to be heavy when going deep. You want smaller watch get a seiko dress watch pressage for example.
Nick N or hamilton jazzmaster viewmatic etc really small and razor thin with high quality
Too big.i would prefer the 39mm
I think ur head is more bigger than this watch.
