As is the case in most collections, Omega has released numerous special edition Aqua Terras. The Aqua Terra >15,000 Gauss is one such timepiece. It was the first watch to feature technology and materials now present in all the Swiss manufacturer’s Master Chronometer calibers. You’ll recognize this watch by its black and yellow striped second hand and the yellow “>15’000 GAUSS” inscription above 6 o’clock. Be sure to set aside around 5,000 USD for this anti-magnetic timepiece.
The limited-edition Aqua Terra 007 Spectre has an almost identical construction. This model debuted in 2015 in honor of the 24th entry in the James Bond film franchise, “Spectre.” The dial is embellished with the repeatedly interlocked Bond family coat of arms, and its second hand is solid yellow. Furthermore, the 007 logo is integrated into the “>15’000 GAUSS” inscription. This James Bond watch is limited to 15,007 pieces and has a price of about 7,300 USD.
Omega opted for light and robust titanium when crafting the models in the GoodPlanet line. These watches are dedicated to the GoodPlanet Foundation, an ecology and sustainable development NGO. You have the choice between two models: a 38.5-mm three-hand version and a 43-mm GMT edition, which has a fourth hand for displaying the time in a second time zone via a 24-hour scale on the bezel. You’ll need to have around 5,300 USD on hand for the GMT model on a textile strap. If you want one on a stainless steel bracelet, you’ll need an additional 350 to 450 USD.
The Aqua Terra Golf is yet another special edition. While technically identical to the standard model, it has numerous green elements that contrast nicely against the black dial. These details include the second hand; the “Seamaster” inscription; and the 15, 30, 45, and 60 markers on the minute track. A black and green NATO strap completes the look. Those who dislike this color combination may prefer the version with a light dial and orange accents. The green edition requires an investment of roughly 4,800 USD, while the orange variant costs around 4,400 USD.
The Aqua Terra Worldtimer
One particularly exceptional model is the Aqua Terra Worldtimer – the first Omega watch to feature a world-time display. This 43-mm timepiece’s most striking detail is the enamel Earth at the center of its dial. A 24-hour scale surrounds the Earth, which itself sits within a sandblasted platinum dial. Each time zone is represented by the name of a well-known city; those that observe daylight savings time are written in blue, those that do not appear in black.
To date, Omega has produced three versions of the Aqua Terra Worldtimer. The 2017 platinum edition is very exclusive and had a limited run of only 87 pieces. You can call this timepiece your own for about 70,000 USD. The 2019 model with a Sedna gold case and bracelet is considerably less expensive at 30,000 USD. The most affordable Worldtimer also debuted in 2019, featuring a stainless steel case and blue rubber bracelet. You can purchase this watch for around 7,800 USD.
