Re: Omega Aqua Terra Mod. 2503-50
: Greetings and Happy New Year!
: I am interested in some reviews of the Omega
: Aqua Terra Mod. 2503-50. I am an active
: sportsman that will be sailing, boating, and
: fishing from the surf, Kayak and small boat.
: Although I will not be scuba diving, my
: watch will be getting dunked on a regular
: basis. I am interested in the Omega (I have
: my Dad's vintage Constellation) as an
: alternative to a Rolex Explorer I. I am the
: orginal owner of a 21 year old Rolex
: Submariner, but to be honest, I don't really
: like the watch that much, too big, too
: heavy, and uncomfortable to wear. I would
: buy the Omega A/T automatic if I am
: confident that it will hold up to the
: regular exposure to the saltwater and
: general rough treatment. Thanks for your
: advice on my next purchase. jkc
I agree that the AT should satisfy your requirements very well. Just one word of caution. Since you feel that the Rolex Sub is too heavy and uncomfortable you might want to try on the 2503 AT before buying one. Even though it's the mid size AT at about 39mm it is probably similiar in size and weight to your sub. It may be thinner but the width is comparable. Just a thought. Good luck with your decision.
