The Omega Aqua Terra with the 2500 Co-Axial Movement is an excellent timekeeper as its Chronometer rating demands out of a timepiece as this. In three weeks ownership with regular wear, I have been monitoring the accuracy on a daily basis, and so far I have been getting approximately 2+/- seconds per day which is extremely precise for a mechanical watch. And, the watch is a beauty, its gold hands and markers on a white slightly iridescent dial contrasts beautifully.
When I received my Aqua Terra it was packed in the usual Omega white box, within contained the typical red leather display box, but I was absolutely pleased what the latter contained. A Pristine satin finished metal bracelet watch that sparkled with quality. I really was torn between the Gold and Blue Hands & Markers. But I am so glad I chose the Gold! The Gold markers and hands add that touch of class that all can relate to. This is one classic looking, solid timepiece of high quality build that I say BUY! Get it before the price rises, which will be soon. I know it’s still a grey market watch, but Amazon leaves the serial numbers intact. A True Swiss Chronometer!
On a more technical description, the Caliber 2500 Co-Axial Movement is an Omega in-house production that has a COSC rated movement with 44 hour power reserve that utilizes a free sprung balance without index which maintains isochronism over a longer period of time. The Co-Axial escapement can also go 10 years without maintenance, however it is in my opinion that the watch me serviced within a 5 year period as other parts are dependant on proper lubrication. Also, if your watch is frequently used in or near water, you should have it pressure tested for a possible compromise in the seals once a year. Always check to make sure the crown is screwed-in securely if winding is required to ensure a tight water seal.
