Mini Review: Rep vs Gen of Omega's Aqua Terra 150m in Green

[kennygconspiracy]

Good day everyone! It's been a while since my last review of an Omega. I am continuing the discussion with a small look at the differences between a VSF and a gen Aqua Terra in green borrowed from a friend.

The Green AT is the most popular and beloved variation. It makes sense to see what VSF and a gen look like side by side.

In my opinion, this is a first of its kind review and I hope it builds excitement for a healthy discussion!

The review above will be necessary to get a complete idea of all differences. In this case, I will just be following the discrepancies between the dials.

Probably my shortest review ever since this is a DLC to my main AT review. Loads of photos will be doing the talking!

Biggest difference? The dials are quite different, with the gen being darker and more of a dark seaweed green, and VSF being more olive or pea green, and brighter. The teak patterns and sunburst are more aggressive on the VSF.

The variation can also be seen in low light as well.

Whatever differences you do notice, please feel free to share them here.

Thank you RWI family for the platform and opportunity to continue to contribute to the library of Rep knowledge!

Yep I agree the dial is the giveaway but without it side by side you'd be hard picked to tell the difference
Nice piece!

There's also a good number of other differences in the main AT review (ex: rep has fat datewheel and thick marker numbers, with full rehaut) but agreed, if you're looking from a distance, it would pass quite well.

That's the main goal right!

Nice review Kenny. Yes, the dial is quite different but this you can only tell when you have a gen watch nearby, otherwise....

Nice review!

Love the review and photos man. Regret selling mine off back when it was still a 300 something dollar watch...

Thanks for the photos

Those first 2 really do show off the dial difference.

The hour hand on the gen seems to be rather dirty?

It’s one of my favourite pieces, make sure they give you the bracelet and the rubber strap

Thanks, It looks like a rubber strap isn't included (checked with Puretime)

I got mine a year or two ago and it was included, it pretty much lives on the rubber.
It would be a shame if they weren’t offering it with both.
Try one of the other TDs
Supermirrors, Jtime, cTime, chasing,theone

Yeah I will ask around the TD's and see who offers it. What colour is your strap?
