New 8500 aqua terra

[monty68]

Hi,

Got my new white/silver face 41.5mm aqua terra on Friday. Loving it.
So far, only gaining a second each day against my satellite clock, awesomely accurate.
Got both bracelet and integrated rubber deployment but think I
will get a brown croc strap too to dress it up.

I love its understated elegance, will post some pics later if anyone
is remotely interested lol.

If I could afford it, I would have a PO and an Aqua Terra. Always liked the style of the AT's.

Stunning dial, very nice watch indeed, congrats.

Thanks for the positive replies!

Good choice. The AT is a great sport/dressy hybrid IMO. The dial is simply lovely, and you've got a watch that is as at home on the beach, as it is in a smart restaurant. It's a very good allrounder.

My favourite watch, with my 6.75 in wrist though I'd go for the 38mm myself.

Never seen one on rubber. Looks different - but good.

They are a real datejust alternative these days.

A thing of beauty. That 8500 movement is a total gem too. Here's my watch with that movement:

Ticks away beautifully and keeps cracking time - about +1 second a day when being worn.

Thanks,

I think the AD thought I was a bit nuts insisting he ordered the
rubber strap from the planet ocean but its a Seamaster so why
not lol. I like it, im into straps more than bracelets - thats what
owning a PAM does to you ha ha!!

Its good to have the choice to mix between the strap and the bracelet
now and again, make it feel like a different watch. I think a brown
croc would look stunning on it.

Agreed always a good partner for a silver faced watch.
