Omega Aqua Terra 38mm vs Globemaster 39mm

[Rocket Man]

I was passing the Omega boutique in Oxford Street today so I thought I'd try on two mid-size, blue dial watches.

First up was the AT:

I previously owned the older 'skyfall' model with brushed centre links and framed date window. This latest version appears to wear significantly smaller and a tad slimmer. The bracelet is much improved for smaller wrists although I didn't like the new clasp with 'Omega' writing rather than just the logo.

Then I tried the Globemaster, which wore a lot bigger, more than I would have expected from a 38 vs 39mm watch comparision.

I preferred the brushed bracelet and clasp on the Globemaster but I really don't understand why it retails for over 1000 more than the AT! I know it has the tungsten bezel but isn't the movement essentially the same?

The globemaster seemed much dressier and the Aqua Terra more sporty, however the AT was a lot more shiny which kind of detracts from the sporty looks.

Has anyone else compared or considered these watches?

I prefer Globeaster. AT is a nice watch, but I hate arrow hands.

Of the two I prefer the Aqua Terra
