·AT hits the sweet spot for me. It’s not a dress watch but dressy enough it doesn’t look out of place with formal attire.

·Took me months to decide on the Skyfall AT and it's a keeper. I'm definitely 100% biased but I much prefer the older versions with vertical striping vs the current line with horizontal striping.

·I think the aqua terra is THE most versatile designs out there. I have heard some compare it to the datejust on the "wear it with anything" front. On the other hand, I don't think there a lot of rules here... wear what you like.

·Does anyone else notice with their aqua terra crowns they do not screw in the same way as other crowns? It seems almost like there is nothing to push against when you go to screw it back into this case making it seemingly difficult. Anyone else experience this?

·I have two aqua terras of the 2500 generation and I think it goes in fine. It is nice because there are no crown guards. I turn the crown counterclockwise until I feel a click, and proceed to screw the crown in clockwise until I feel moderate resistance. This prevents cross-threading and allows for a good seal. I would not say that it is difficult, although every crown design has a slightly different feel. Maybe relative to other watches that you have it is "difficult" however I am not disappointed with the performance I have personally noted.

·I really can’t stand the “teak” dial. It kills the AT for me, which is a shame because they are great watches. I’d buy one over an Explorer all day if they’d just drop the funky dial.

·I have been looking at the white dialed 8900 myself. The versatility is key. I see it as a similar watch to the datejust.

·Absolutely - the AT is a very nice every day watch. I just got one in blue and damn well works with everything. I was debating between the AT and the Rolex Datejust and comparing them side by side, the AT just had a lot more character. The blue in particular is subtle indoors but shines nicely in the sun.

I also have the white DJ 41. When it comes to Blue, AT is king, or at least co-ruler. On white, teak etc the DJ, to my taste, beats it by a mile or two.
