Men’s Pre-Owned Omega Aqua Terra Watches
ABOUT THE OMEGA SEAMASTER AQUA TERRA COLLECTION
The Omega Aqua Terra is one of the most comprehensive collections from the brand. All models have the distinct sporty-elegant aesthetic and 150M water resistance of the original, and yet Omega has also expanded the selection to include a myriad of sizes, finishes, and even metal bands.
The addition of complications have also made the Omega Aqua Terra even more reliable. Here are the sub-collections within the Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra line:
Omega Aqua Terra 150M
The classic time-and-date edition of the Aqua Terra features a dress and sport watch aesthetic. A smooth case and bezel, date window at 3 or 6 o’clock, and teak patterns on the dial characterize this modern classic. Newer models also feature more vivid dial colors, adding to the line’s appeal.
Size: 38mm or 41mm
Metals: steel, 18k yellow and rose gold, two-tone steel and yellow or rose gold
Bracelet: steel, rubber or leather
Movement: Omega Co-Axial Calibre 8800 automatic (38mm) or Calibre 8900 (41mm)
Omega Aqua Terra Chronograph
The chronograph complication was introduced to the Aqua Terra line in 2009 and later upgraded in 2013. The first generation of the Aqua Terra Chronograph featured 42mm cases and chronograph subdials on a smooth dial. Subdials displayed running seconds counter, 30-minute, and 12-hour counters.
It was with the 2013 edition that the teak pattern was added to the Aqua Terra Chronograph, bringing it in line with the rest of the collection. Case size was also increased to 44mm. Inside, the movement was upgraded to the Caliber 3313, bringing with it a Co Axial escapement and a longer 52-hour power reserve.
Size: 42mm or 44mm
Metals: steel, 18k rose gold, two-tone steel and rose gold
Bracelet: steel, rubber or leather
Movement: Omega Calibre 3301 (2009 editions) and Omega Calibre 3313 (2013 onwards)
Omega Aqua Terra GMT Chronograph
The Omega Aqua Terra GMT Chronograph was introduced in the same year as the chronograph. While in line with the rest of the collection with its teak dial, it also noticeably featured two subdials – a running seconds register with a GMT hand at 9, and a 60-minute and 12-hour counter at 3 o’clock. The date window at 6 o’clock balances the layout..
In 2019, it was upgraded from Calibre 8605 to 9605, which comes with a METAS certification and second time zone feature.
Size: 43mm
Metals: steel, 18k rose gold, two-tone steel and rose gold
Bracelet: steel, two tone steel and rose gold, or leather
Movement: OMEGA Master Co-Axial calibre 9605
Omega Aqua Terra GMT
The Omega Aqua Terra GMT combines the easily recognizable design of the Aqua Terra 150M with a GMT function, used through the 24-hour track on the dial and a GMT hand that completes its rotation around the dial in 24 hours.
Size: 43mm
Metals: steel, 18k rose gold, two-tone steel and rose gold
Bracelet: steel, two tone steel and rose gold, or leather
Movement: OMEGA Co-Axial calibre 8615
Omega Aqua Terra Annual Calendar
The Omega Aqua Terra Annual Calendar features the classic look of the 150M and adds both the date window and day of the week at 3 o’clock.
Size: 38.5mm and 43mm
Metals: steel, 18k rose gold, two-tone steel and rose gold
Bracelet: steel, two tone steel and rose gold, or leather

Omega Aqua Terra Worldtimer
The Omega Aqua Terra Worldtimer made its debut in 2017 with a limited-edition model in 950 platinum, to commemorate the 15th anniversary of the Aqua Terra line. Three years later, Omega introduced a standard production Aqua Terra Worldtimer in stainless steel and Sedna gold, which appears in the collection today.
The current editions come with a beautiful blue dial – at the center of which, is a laser-ablated titanium world map, made of a grade 5 titanium plate that has been laser-sculpted to create the crystal blue ocean and the relief engravings of the world’s major land masses. This is surrounded by a 24-hour scale that revolves over the day and a superbly executed outer ring that depicts the 24 major cities in the world.
Size: 38.5mm and 43mm
Metals: platinum (limited edition) and steel or 18k rose gold
Bracelet: steel, rose gold, or rubber
Movement: OMEGA Master Chronometer Calibre 8938
Omega Aqua Terra Ultra Light
The Omega Aqua Terra Ultra Light is the first Omega watch made of Gamma Titanium, a robust yet lightweight material used in the aeronautical industry. The dial also makes use of sandblasted grade 5 titanium dial featuring the iconic Aqua Terra stripes. Due to the use of this material, the timepiece weighs just 55 grams complete with its fabric strap attached.
Size: 41mm
Movement: OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8928 Ti (Omega’s first movement made using titanium)
Limited Editions
As one would expect from Omega, there are special editions and collaborations under the Seamaster Aqua Terra line – particularly those made for the Olympics.
In keeping with tradition, Omega presents special edition watches dedicated to this major sporting event. Omega’s wonderfully creative designs echo the theme of each Olympic event, and honor the culture of the host country, making them highly collectible models. Some of the most popular Olympic editions of the Aqua Terra were the Pyeongyang 2018 Winter Games, Tokyo 2020 Games, and Beijing 2022 Winter Games editions.
