Re: 38mm AT wears about the same size as a Speedy
In Response To: 38mm AT wears about the same size as a Speedy Pro ()

: The Aqua Terras wear larger than their stated
: size suggests.

I agree! I tried a 38 mm on, but I could not (yet) make up my mind, because it felt large. But it IS a beauty. And looks much better in person than on the Omega website! Everyone tells me that I'll get used to the size. It is difficult to believe, but I can't argue with the consensus here...

: you will find it's about the same size
: as the Speedmaster Pro.

I think I felt the Speedmaster Pro was heavier and thicker, if I remember correctly.

: But I still vote for the Aqua Terra, wheather
: it's the 35mm or 38mm.

Yeah, I am leaning there, too... It is definitely growing on me :-) I wish I could try on a 35 mm Aqua Terra. I think I would love the 38 mm, but it would be nice to have a comparison. The auth. dealers don't seem to have the 35 mm anywhere in Mass.
