It's easy to get distracted by the brightest, shiniest watches of Baselworld; the watches that live up to the marketing parlance of novelties'. But sometimes the real winners are the quiet achievers. I suspect Omega's redesigned Seamaster Aqua Terra 150m will be one of these winners. The AT (as it's often called) has long been the go-to casual dress Omega, the obvious choice for those looking for an alternative to the storied Speedmaster or the sporty Seamaster. This year that choice just got easier. The dial has been significantly improved, with less busy text, a new horizontal stripe, and a newly positioned date window at six, giving the whole dial really strong vertical balance, which looks great on the wrist.The changes don't stop there either ?the case (in 41mm and 38mm) has been subtly updated, and the crown has been modified to make it slightly more ergonomic. And of course they're Master Chronometers, powered by mighty METAS-certified calibres. This particular model comes in at $7250.
