A first class movement, maybe best in class; solid build, pleasing aesthetics and a strong brand behind it, the Aqua Terra remains (in my opinion) one of the very best all around watches, and maybe the best value in its class. Cheers!!

I must say, the real miss here is this review. While Omega didn’t do anything dramatic in this release, it did nothing to diminish the Aqua Terra’s standing as one of the best all around watches in the luxury segment and an outstanding value in its class.
Yes, the cases on both models are a bit bulky, but these are sports watches, not dress. And since when is a screw down crown a fault in the sports watch class?
The dial texture is fine by me, the trendy colors are of no consequence; you can still get the classics while, black, silver and blue.

As with all things, tastes differ and it seems as if your review of this watch is based more on taste than an objective assessment of quality or of the watch’s placement in the market. Reflective of taste, I own ref 220.10.41.21.03.001 and absolutely love it in all respects, but I understand that it isn’t for everyone. Objectively, I believe the quality is there as well. With a 7 3/8” wrist, this watch is as small as I would like to go and am happy they kept it at 41mm (I would have liked 42mm as well), and it does work well with business casual or just daily living.

All Rolex watches have screw-down crowns, as do many other non-diving sports or sporty watches. I think a non screw-down would be a marketing disaster and indicate a drop in quality. A lot of people, myself included, wouldn’t pay this sort of money for a sports watch without said feature. Also, you mean “small seconds,” no?

I agree this release from Omega is a miss. In your opening though, you say the center seconds release from last year – are you sure you don’t mean the small seconds? I think that was the previous Aqua Terra release prior to this one.
