I'm thinking about buying another Aqua Terra, this time it's the larger size 231.20.43.22.06.002 which is the 43mm annual calendar model with steel and rose gold.

Any thoughts or comments about how the watch wears\looks or the movement used would be welcome.

Well I've bought the watch but it required an additional link, so It's been returned to Omega who will add the link and polish the bracelet if necessary.

I've asked for them to send me the watch head back while they get the spare link in stock and fit it to the bracelet. Once the watch is returned, hopefully shortly I will try this 21mm strap\clasp combo on for size.

Well it finally arrived today, but not before the parcel company delivered to the wrong address, but thankfully it was all sorted out in the end.

I'm not usually a fan of two-tones but that is an absolute stunner -- beautiful interplay between case, dial and bracelet.

It’s a beauty! I have the silver/white model and the gray model. Also own the blue GMT in the same size.

I love them. Love the annual calendar function as well.

I gave my father in law the two tone AT in 39mm. It’s a beauty. His doesn’t have the two tone bracelet though which I think adds to the watch.

Yes, nearly all the different versions of Aqua Terra are very nice, I've had quite a few over the years and despite it's size this one is actually a good fit on my wrist.
I have a few oem Omega straps to change to the look, but for now at least it will be on the bracelet.

A word of warning though for anyone who has one of these is that the extra links are a small fortune to have them fitted, the shop I bought this from paid for the extra link, but they included the Omega invoice which was £331 that was for the link and fitting.😲

Yes that watch looks much better in the flesh than the catalogue photo.
Enjoy, and your right £331 for a link is Patek money. World has gone mad.

That's crazy pricing you find from high end makers like PP, AP, VC, Roger Dubuis and the like, I certainly wouldn't expect Omega to be charging this kind of money for a link, that's more than a deployant Omega buckle.

Do you know if they make rubber straps for this model (or its previous model)?
