The V2 build of the 43.5 mm Aqua Terra-style replica is the version most buyers ask for after handling a first-generation piece. It keeps the teak-pattern dial and the brushed-and-polished case of the original design, but tightens the details that usually give a replica away: date alignment, crown engraving and bracelet end-link fit. Below is what the second version changes, what the watch actually measures, and how it wears.

Key Features

  • 43.5 mm stainless steel case with brushed flanks and polished beveled edges
  • Horizontal teak-pattern dial with applied hour markers and lume-filled hands
  • Symmetric date window at 6 o'clock with a color-matched date wheel
  • Domed sapphire crystal with inner anti-reflective coating
  • Automatic movement with hacking, hand-winding and a smooth sweeping seconds hand
  • Screw-down crown and gasketed caseback for everyday water resistance
  • Solid-link bracelet with tighter end links than V1 and a push-button folding clasp
  • V2 corrections: slimmer bezel edge, deeper crown logo and cleaner dial print

The case is machined from 316L stainless steel and measures roughly 13.5 mm thick with a 21 mm lug width, so it sits between a dress watch and a diver on the wrist. The crystal is sapphire rather than mineral glass, the dial furniture is applied rather than printed, and the bracelet uses screwed solid links instead of folded ones — three details that matter more than any single cosmetic fix. The caseback gasket and screw-down crown are the parts to check first on arrival, since they drive how the watch holds up day to day.

What does V2 change compared with V1?

V2 fixes the small tells: the date window sits square in the dial, the crown logo is etched deeper, and the bracelet end links meet the case with almost no step. The case profile and dial pattern are unchanged, so it is an evolution rather than a redesign.

Is the Aqua Terra a 300 m watch?

Omega rates the Aqua Terra at 150 m, while the 300 m figure belongs to the Seamaster Diver 300M line. Listings that use both names describe a hybrid build, so treat the water resistance as splash and rain proof and do not swim or dive with it.

How does the 43.5 mm case wear?

At 43.5 mm across and about 13.5 mm thick, it suits wrists from roughly 7 inches up and reads large but not oversized under a cuff. Smaller wrists should compare a 41 mm equivalent before ordering.

Orders ship in plain, unbranded packaging with tracking, usually within a few business days. If the fit or finish is not what you expected, returns are accepted within 30 days as long as the protective stickers are intact and the bracelet has not been sized.
