Swanky - I have finally decided on the Aqua Terra after looking at both watches. My sister-in-law has the Rolex Oyster Perpetual and I didn't like the metal finishing. Unlike the Omega, you can tell it's really well made. Perhaps it's because Oyster Perpetual is the entry-level Rolex. Omega ADs here do not carry the all diamond bezel and I think it's fabulous. If that's what you have been eyeing, I would say go for Aqua Terra compared to the Rolex, well, price wise for similar specs of a Rolex, it would double in price.

I love the diamond markers, it really gives the watch a classy edge and yet doesn't scream 'look at me'. :p Overall, I am very happy with this watch.

everything posh - I love my Constellation. By the way my model is My Choice. It's my almost everyday watch and I love the durability. My mom bought it for me in 2005. There are now newer models but I don't like the design as it's in neither chunky casual nor dressy.

Beautiful watch, nvie. I looked at the Aqua Terras too and unfortunately for me the dark gray didn't look good with my skin tone, and it's the color I liked more. Ah well.

Enjoy your beauty!

jellyv - did you try out the white dial instead? I just love the teak grey dial and I did some reading about the dial, apparently it's inspired by boat deck.

As promised....more pictures of both watches. Oh, I am also the one modeling my husband's 38.5mm. Opps, got to resize the rest. More photos coming up after resizing.

Yes, the ivory dial looked much nicer on me, but the problem was I didn't love it. I love the gray, and it didn't love me. Enjoy your gorgeous watch!


(But then Ms. Datejust said to me "Hello there, sweetie.":p)

I have watch envy, and I have this watch without the diamond markers. I originally was going to get the one with the diamond markers and then I made the mistake of asking the price of the one without. My cheapness won, no diamonds.
Well it in good health.
