In a way nice but also disappointing that it is yet another permutation of known case and known movement with very little new in the dial. Hope to see soon something really new from Omega.

 

[THXuk]

Nothing innovative from Omega, but combining the best elements from a couple of different models into one, actually worked out pretty nice.

 

[Valaj]

The teal is interesting. VSF please. It shouldn't be too hard since it's like a mix and match!

 

[Reaps]

VS has all components to build this except bezel. They have 45.5 deep black/ceramic case, worldtimer movement,

Only need hands dial and bezel

It’s too big, too thick and looks like a toy watch. Hard pass from me.

Skip forward to me buying one!

You guys do have *Aqua Terra 150M Worldtimer 43mm* from VS and can let me know the quality please ...
The dark blue looking at least okay for me ...not really stunning but possible like a hommage

Not sure I understand what you mean with hommage? It's just a replica. No hommage to anything. But I have the dark blue Aqua Terra. The look is of course a personal matter if you like the more refined look of the aqua terra or the more "macho" look of this PO. But one thing to say is that the 24 hours disk in the aqua terra is - for me - very difficult to read. This one has much higher contrast, and it is in fact growing a little on me. I might in fact consider it after all.

Worldtimer in general is a very busy watch. More for aesthetics than reading time

That is is very true, a real beauty in my eyes. But in fact (I deal with multiple timezones in my work) I usually wear it as I find it the most readable of this type of watches (except for the contrast which is a little better in the summerblue edition and even better in the gray one - and then again I stick to the dark bue due to aesthetics ). I have alternated for a long time the Omega with the JLC World time (gen), and for me, the Omega is really useful and the JLC more a gimmick.

Out of aesthetic i do really LOCE the Worldtimes! I tried one Gen in Dubai recently
Unfortunately the pictures of the Reps are not looking really close but fair for me not to call it Superclone but Clone/Replica
I do think for the money i'll go for one if you guys would say that it is looking and working good!

I only have the dark blue and it looks great and is a very good replica. But you have to get the VSF one.

 

[Reaps]

Up to you. I think it's deservedly super clone status and one of the best for price. Not sure what you find "wrong" with it. What do people want for $400 vs $8000?

 

[Snooky]

I like the teal version as it has a little pop to it, but it’s not too distracting from the overall theme of the watch. But damn 45.5, that would be half way up my forearm

Indeed she is looking cool!
Will be my next one!
Thanks Mate

I have the same one, and I have to share that I have heard others mention about the busy nature of the watch face. However in my experience, having the GMT dial around the middle section draws my eyes easier than the Seiko Presage I have with the GMT ring inside the bezel but around the outside of the main face. It just "feels" better.

 

[maus.anoni]

On the topic, that teal does speak to me, but while 45.5mm is larger than I'd like, the 17.4mm is more concerning, I think. I'd be afraid of bouncing that off every single wall and doorway I get near. Specifically in the rep world, I would love to see them do the white AT world-timer more than I'd like them to focus on. this. That being said, I cannot say I won't be making a 1:1 mockup of this watch to test the size on the wrist...

I've compared my VSF to a gen at the OB. If you don't break out your loupe and you're looking at both watches side by side, it is VERY hard to say which one is which just by looking at it! They are pretty damn good. The dial on the gen has a slight shine but I only noticed that because I knew about it.

To be completely fare what jumps at the eye is the laser hatched worldmap. The colour is wrong and UK is attached to France physically reverting Brexit . But to be homest I have haf the watch 6 months before I noticed that. The problem is that once seen you cannot unsee it again
