Omega Council:

We must reach consensus on the proper pluralization of Aqua Terra. Is it:

Aqua Terras
Aquas Terras (certainly the most Latinate option)
Or
Aquas Terra (in the manner of attorneys general or heirs apparent)

Discuss.

(Or don’t. I’m just really bored at the moment, now that the election is over.)

See, I worry that the acronym thing is a crutch.

Aquae Terrae

I was thinking along the same lines, but I don’t think BOTH should be plural, only one:

Aquae Terra (multiple waters)
Aqua Terrae (multiple lands)

Since it is a Seamaster, I would lean toward Aquae Terra.

😊

It makes sense, even if the correct plural in Latin is Aquae Terrae 🙂 probably @gbesq ’s ATs is the best solution

I have only one Aqua Terra so the discussion, for me at least, is moot.😉

But for you Aqua Terra hoarders, @gbesq has it correct: AT’s.

(Cycling fans know when discussing multiples of the most famous grand tour, it’s Tours de France).

The shots of your watch are fantastic. I wish I didn't like it so much

Thank you, Sir. I really like it and find it quite comfortable. AT's (see? see?) are fantastic watches, pairing well with super casual or formal attire. (Sorry! I suspect that's not what you wanted to read....)

Do it like sheep. Singular plural.

There are 4 sheep in the field
I own 4 Aqua Terra (I don't own any Aqua Terra)

That's the 38.5mm Bond one?

A perfect watch in every way except 1 (ok it's hard to find so a perfect watch in every way except 2)

Oh wow—I think this is the answer I was looking for.

Hmmm. This is a worthy consideration.

Now, a ram and a ewe are sheep. An Aqua Terra is a type of Seamaster made by Omega.

Two rams are in a field with two ewes.

I’m back to AT’s. 🥳

There really is no question about this, it is quite simple.
The watch is called an 'Aqua Terra'. Presumably suggesting it is made of or at home on sea or land?
If it were a person called John Paul and they bumped into another person called John Paul, you would say "there are two John Pauls" not there are two Johns Paul.
Therefore, there are two Aqua Terras.
Or ATs as an abbreviation (with no apostrophe as that would infer that something has been omitted or belongs to the Aqua Terra)

And for the real pedants out there - yes you could add full stops into A.T.s if you must
