(No doubt this innovative mechanical movement laid the groundwork for the antimagnetic METAS-certified Master Chronometer movements Omega would eventually introduce the next year.)įollowing this, a few special-edition models joined the collection. Also in 2013, Omega released the revolutionary Aqua Terra > 15,000 Gauss, which as its name implies, is resistant to magnetic fields greater than 15,000 gauss or 1.5 tesla-more than any previous watch movement ever achieved. Over the next several years, Omega added different versions to the lineup like the Aqua Terra Annual Calendar in 2010, Aqua Terra "Golf" in 2011, the Aqua Terra GMT in 2012, the Aqua Terra Chronograph GMT in 2013, and the Aqua Terra Day-Date in 2013. The bulk of the collection consisted of stainless steel and two-tone steel and red gold models. Aside from the movement, the sizes of the automatic models were modified slightly to offer 38.5mm and 41.5mm cases and the dial featured the now-famed "teak concept" motif with vertical lines intended to mimic the decks of luxury yachts.
In 2008, the company unveiled a revamped collection, complete with the then-new in-house Caliber 8500 Co-Axial automatic movement.
It is often said that the Aqua Terra was Omega's answer to the Rolex Datejust. Size choices include 36.2mm, 39.2mm, and 42.2mm, and metal options include stainless steel and 18k yellow gold. The watches feature round cases with smooth bezels, which house clean and simple legible dials with center timekeeping hands at center and a date window at 3 o'clock. Except for a few quartz models, this generation of the Aqua Terra was equipped with ETA-based Caliber 2500 Co-Axial automatic movements. The company debuted the 150M line in 2002 as part of the greater collection, using the Latin words for "water" and "earth" to emphasize the watches’ suitability for use at sea or on land. Since its initial release in 2002, the Omega Aqua Terra collection has existed in three major generations: Additionally, Omega has often used the Aqua Terra line to debut technical innovations, such as the highly antimagnetic "> 15,000 Gauss” model, the complex " WorldTimer ," and the super lightweight "Ultra-Light" model. Plus, in addition to the core collection of time and date models, there are also more advanced editions with features like day-date, annual calendar, chronograph, and GMT complications. The collection consists of a diverse range of watches with plenty of metals, sizes, colorways, and bracelets to choose from. With modern classic looks and a water resistance rating of 150 meters, Omega has designed these models to be sporty luxury watches for men and women that can be worn all day, every day. The Seamaster Aqua Terra is Omega's collection of high-end watches that blend refined style and durability.
