deville vs aqua terra

hi all,

i am considering my first omega purchase, and would like to know your thoughts concerning the differences between the deville and the aqua terra with co-axial movement.

is the aqua terra more rugged than the deville? more water-resistant? any other data points would be appreciated.

also, i notice that "2000watches.com" offers what seem to be fantastic prices, but with "full manufacturer's warranty".... every other deep-discount internet retailer seems to operate in the grey market, but i wonder how 2000watches can offer the same prices, but with manufacturer's warranty.

thanks in advance for you advice,

-eric
