Hands-on with the UK cheap fake Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Small Seconds ­— Putting the oddball AT on the wrist

When I unboxed the beige cheap fake Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Small Seconds, I didn’t hold it in my hand for too long to get a first impression. I immediately sized the rubber strap outfitted with a folding clasp — a very simple and quick task — and put it on. “Why so hastily?” you might ask. Well, that’s because I think the first impression you get from a luxury copy watch should be in the timepiece’s most favorable setting. As I often experience, big and bold complications with a lot of visual fireworks often work better off the wrist than on it. But when you’re dealing with a much more simple creation in soft colors, it will only come to life on the wrist. And as soon as the new 1:1 replica Omega UK sat on my wrist, it said “hello” in the most charming and enchanting way.

The picture on Fake Omega’s website doesn’t do the watch justice
Love at first sight? Well, I saw a picture of the watch on Swiss made replica Omega’s website, so not exactly, but the AT in the metal is something else altogether. Too much Photoshop is never a good thing — not on dating sites and not on watch-brand sites — since it polishes out nuance and character. The super clone watch on my wrist is a completely different creature than its picture/rendering online. That’s what I hoped for, and that’s what I got. A very nuanced and subtle watch with a dial that is stunning in an introverted way. The brushed, silvery-beige dial shows the familiar horizontal teak pattern, as well as a date window at 6 o’clock. The date is semi-integrated into the opaline small seconds sub-dial, which is surrounded by a blackened ring for a crisp contrast.

AAA replica Omega also opted for blackened hands and indexes filled with white Super-LumiNova for both visual hold and easy legibility. Whereas the black brings strong contrast, the sandblasted minutes and seconds tracks on both the dial and sub-dial have a sophisticated nature.

Well-engineered creativity
The black and beige prove to be a wonderful combination, one that’s not too prominent and also not too bland. And this dial, which charms me so much, is the result of thoughtful, creative decisions as well as engineering. The use of a laser to engrave the pattern on the dial is the reason the beige high quality replica Omega shows so much personality and depth. I know the sub-dial is a subject of debate, and so is the date window. Some people can’t stand them. I’m not too dogmatic on the subject. I don’t miss the date on my Chronoswiss Timemaster or quartz-powered Grand Seiko because a date window would ruin the clean look. But in the case of this particular Omega Aqua Terra replica for sale, the rather large and prominently shaped date window doesn’t distract. The date, which you can’t see separately from the sub-dial, adds body to the subdued dial color.

The suspicion that the 41 × 13.1mm perfect fake Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Small Seconds, with its lug-to-lug length of 47mm would sit and look perfectly on my wrist proved to be a fact. The size is just right. The soft-spoken dial design with sharp, dark contrasts works well in a watch of substance. Due to its balanced proportions and modern size, which is not too extravagant but also not too introverted, it pulls off being a fashionably styled copy watch. The shape, height, and weight of the case sit very well on the wrist.

The Swiss movement replica Omega is comfortable but present. Credit also goes to the structured beige rubber strap with its stylish, not-too-contrasting gray stitching and a subtle steel insert. The easy-to-adjust strap wears very comfortably, and the same goes for the robust and relatively thin folding clasp.

Why I sold my favourite watch – the UK 2008 Luxury Replica Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 42mm

When a wound is fresh it hurts the most to prod it, but the earlier the treatment begins the sooner the healing process can resolve. Some of you may have previously read my admittedly numerous articles mentioning my 2008 best fake Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean, including this veritable love poem to the watch as I declared that it would be my most-worn watch of 2021.

Even though my first watch, and one that I am certain that I’ll never sell, was my great-grandfather’s 1958 1:1 replica Omega Seamaster that I had fixed up, my partner of nearly four years told me that the Planet Ocean was the one they most strongly associated with me as “my” watch, and that everything else I’d ever owned was just “some other watch”. This isn’t going to be a story of seller’s remorse, and it’s not going to be a story about raking in “investment” profits. Instead, I’m going to weave the tale of why I sold my favourite super clone watch, and why it could happen to you.

This story does get personal, and perhaps strays into territory that I shouldn’t be admitting as a copy watch reviewer, but I will start at the beginning. The year is 2019, and I’d begun working at my first full-time job in audio post-production. I’d been wearing my heirloom 1958 AAA replica Omega Seamaster UK for about six months after its repairs, and I thought I was set for life in terms of watches. But, when that first monthly payment came in, all the possibilities started swirling through my head. I used a big chunk of my first paycheque on building my dream guitar, which I still play on a nearly daily basis, and then spent the next month researching watches on my lunch breaks.

My work in live music was still viable in the pre-Covid years, so I wanted something that I wouldn’t be afraid of knocking around microphone stands and belligerent band members like I was with the vintage piece. I’d been previously smitten with the luxury fake Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch – as we all are at some point – but that was well out of my budget. I was also a huge fan of Casino Royale starring Daniel Craig, and then I stumbled across what he wore in the film.

I can still feel the butterflies I felt then, as I felt obsession course through my veins scouring Gumtree, eBay, Marketplace, Chrono24, Chronext and a myriad of other vendors trying to find a Planet Ocean that I could afford. At the time I was still a cheap copy watch novice, but this experience gave me a rapid course in spotting minute details. Pretty soon I could tell the differences between the Planet Ocean iterations, even within that same generation. I saw a few of the Limited Edition versions with the 007-counterbalance on the seconds hand, and I started learning about watch diameters and the effect they play in comfort. I’d had a few offers rejected to the absolute limit of what I could afford, which was $3000 AUD, and eventually I struck gold through an eBay listing for the watch of my dreams. It was the 42mm Omega replica for sale UK which was released around the same time as Quantum of Solace, but being the same black-on-black colour scheme as Bond’s watch from Casino Royale I was happy to opt for the version that fit my smaller wrists better than the 45.5mm monster that I’d previously been bidding on. The condition looked pretty great for a top Swiss copy watch that had clearly been worn and loved before, and with a recent service receipt I was too excited to worry about whether or not it had papers (after all, if a factory can copy a watch, they can certainly copy a document).

This is unfortunately where the seeds of negativity begin to sprout, as watches can do strange things to our minds. That $3000 AUD was more than a month’s pay, and I’d just spent it less than two hours after it had come in. Instantly, my perception of money and value had become warped, and it shaped my collecting habits for years to come. While most people on the kind of salary I had would have considered a $300 watch a luxury, my next year or so became a flurry of purchases, flips and trades. Some highlights I’d like to pick out were a 1940s perfect replica Omega with a repainted dial, a Straton Syncro with the Seiko NE88 movement, a Longines Avigation BigEye, a King Seiko 4502-7001 from 1971, and more recently a Cartier Tank Basculante. All of these high quality fake watches were great, and some of them were even sold at a margin, but although I enjoyed wearing them I now believe that I had bought them for that instant dopamine hit you get when you spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars in one single purchase.

Only three or four years have passed, but they were incredibly formative years, and my feelings around that 2008 best fake Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean have only grown stronger. It came with me on some of the most significant journeys of my life, accompanying the experiences which defined me as an independent person. It reminded me not only of the weekend trips I took it on, and not only of the film which I loved so much, but I had also imprinted upon it a loose connection to the memory of Chris Cornell who sang the Casino Royale theme song, and whose death still affects me since 2017. You can go back and read my previous article about it if you want to know the things I loved in regards to its visual features, but I’ve come to realise that the place it has in my heart is almost entirely separate to the physical object.

So, that brings us to the present day. I’d always assumed that I loved that Swiss movement replica Omega too much to sell it, but 2021 in particular brought with it a lot of time for introspective thought and consideration. I thought about what means most to me, and how my life reflects that. The more I pondered it, the less comfortable I felt about the entire idea of owning a watch that was worth so much. It’s difficult to express why selling a cheap copy watch I bought for $3000 for $4750 was not a financial decision, but at its core it was about freeing myself. The physical object of the Planet Ocean was something I liked, but I didn’t love it. It was tied up in a masculinity that I was steadily moving away from, and wearing it in public had started to feel like some kind of mean boast.

To be completely honest, it was my first pang of post-sale regret that spurred me on to write this in-depth story as a form of grief recovery, but I’m glad to say that it has really worked. Compersion is a term often used as the opposite of jealousy, and that is what I feel for the latest owner of that 2008 Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean replica Paypal. I feel much more comfortable with a slightly humbler watch collection, and my new DOXA 600T Sharkrambler fills the black-dial-diver hole on my Swiss made copy watch shelf perfectly, with a few extra thousand still in the bank. I hope that you feel inspired to take a closer look at the things you own and what exactly it is about them that sparks joy. You may find yourself even more attached to them, or you may decide to let someone else share in that memory-making we call watch collecting.
