just bought an aqua terra 8500 on an alligator band. Can I also refit it with the omega bracelet?

Thanks

 

Yes

 

Keep an eye on the For Sale forums. Might catch one there.

 

Mine is the 38.5 mm case.

 

Just proves, different strokes for different folks. My bracelet spends its' time in the safe as I much prefer the 38.5 AT on leather.

 

DAM... You realize pictures of the new watch is required. ☺☺☺

 

Great looking watches. I much prefer the decoration around the date window, unfortunately the new ones don't have it.

 

When did that happen?

 

I do like the new black dial without a border, but opaline ???

 

Bought from ad on December 24, 2014. NOS? Year?

 

They didn't release the new borderless version until Baselworld 2014 (earlier this year), so I wouldn't call yours "NOS" -- most ADs and Boutiques still have this version in stock. The new version is more expensive, has a borderless date window, and has the master co-axial movement which has higher anti-magnetic resistance, which is questionably relevant to anyone who is not an MRI tech or such and working around strong magnetism daily. The version you have is fantastic, has good anti-magnetic capability with Si14 balance wheel and spring, and some people (myself included) strongly prefer the bordered date window.

To answer your direct question, though, yes, you can fit it with the bracelet if desired.

 

Many thanks!
