AT new or old
I was looking at buying tye new AT for my girl just as they were released but it was impossible to locate one and every time i was given an arrival date it kept getting pushed back.
I got a gr8 deal on the outgoing AT ladies, MOP, auto which she loves. I still am yet to see the new model in person though planning to go to Melb in a couple of weeks and will try to track one down.
The prices, in Oz, of the new model was also said to be a serious jump.

Hardly ever see or hear about the Aqua Terra; what's up?
I like the Aqua Terra quite a bit, on the pictures I have seen; teak and non teak dial. But the PuristS don't seem to have a lot with these watches (or did I just miss those posts). So what's up with the new Aqua Terra line up? You guys don't like them? T...

Good to hear you take care of your girl James
She must be a happy lady getting the outgoing AT. I must say I like that one a lot too; just am very anxious to see the new AT> Best, Starman
You might have missed this thread from January . . .
. . . where DRMW and myself made a trip to the Omega boutique in Beverly Hills to photograph the new Aqua Terra . . . omega.watchprosite.com . and here's another photo from that session for your viewing pleasure . . . . . . cordially, Art...
Saw that one doc....
but I believe it's the only one I saw on this forum. Just expected more AT's by this time, but it seems it takes Omega a while to get them on the market. Cheers, Starman
New AT with 8500 available...
from , but do a google to check where else. I'm about to sell my SM Pro 2255.80.00, and buy the new AT from them. Takes 3 days for them to get it from Omega, the price is great, yes, grey market. If I don't like it... sell and get a PO! Nice hobby. Watchp...
Good for you Rich!
And for grey market; I love time spending at AD's and buying at an AD makes it a complete experience. Without AD's there is no trying on new watches and drewling on higher end watches I surely cannot afford but am able to admire. Then again when cash is l...
Grey...
I know, I know, it's as if I'm some kind of traitor, but why pay full price when you can grey out? I know it's a hobby for most WIS's - buy grey, sell a bit higher after wearing it for a few weeks or months (unless it's a keeper), and go for the next one....
I have one on order, even though I have yet to see one
in the metal. I'm completely sure it will be worth the (very) long wait, but it sure is getting tiring. I've seen a couple of posts that indicate they are finally in the country, though! (aft).
Well you must be quite confident that you like this watch
And for the pictures I saw; you are right. So enjoy the waiting and please post a lot of pictures when your AT arrives. By the way; did you go for the teck grey (I like that one). Best, Starman
the new AT is a lovely dressie watch, but the AT railmaster is tops
i am very biased of course. i consider it the sporty AT. when the 8500 Railmaster comes out i may be tempted to have twins. Graham...
Damn sure Graham; great stuff
And I know what you mean about sporty and all, but I think this Railmaster is quite dressy too (depending on the strap of course). Thanks a lot for posting. Best, Starman
on the OEM bracelet its...
on the OEM bracelet its quite dressy. mine came on a long worn out brown croc which also gives it a nice dress finish. best Graham
I'm with you on those Railmasters
Mine gets a lot of wrist time. Classic design with the coaxial movement. Mine's on the Omega strap & deployant. 39mm....
Yes, I'm darn sure from the pix I've seen.
And yes, I'm getting the teck gray, (whatever that name means). I shall do my best to post lots of shots when it arrives.
