How about 39.2 for Adam's watch and 42.2 for my AquaTerra Chrono? And I got that from Omega's site as well. So... three searches came up with three results. I know that sometimes folks don't always get along or see eye to eye. For the most part, there is nothing that a mod can do about that. However, a mod or admin can kindly ask that we try to co-exist here in peace. I know that we can do that. We've been doing it for over a year now. I say we blame Omega's site for this.

my aqua terra is 36mm size as i have a small 6 1/2 inch wrist and 39mm looked silly and wears larger than my bigger seadweller?? go figure? I totally agree mamas, my 39mm wears like a 40-41mm.

When I bought my Aqua Terra, I was given the latest OMEGA catalogue at the time....this was in early 2003.
At that time, the catalogue very clearly stated the 3 sizes as 41, 38 and 35 mm. On this, I am prepared to stake both my Rollies as a bet.
I suggest if any one of you can somehow dig up an older OMEGA catalogue of the Aqua Terra from the year 2003, the evidence will be found there.
Not sure, if the case sizes have been changed since then, but I am 100% positive that that 2003 AT catalogue gave me those dimensions.

I think it would be best if you didn't get personal about things and to leave any issues from other forums, off this one. Mamas is an expert in Omega so I have complete confidence that he is 100% correct. Maybe the AT you had WAS made in 41mm but it's obviously changed and Mamas stated clearly that he got his info from the Omega website. I guess these facts didn't compute for you. I'm not the one with a history of making inaccurate or outright wrong statements about watches. You have made it a fine art. And really, you are hardly one to condescend to me about when and to whom I can and cannot respond to a post. You really have gall to tell me to only 'speak when spoken too', when again you've again made it a fine art to stick your comments where they are least wanted. I don't want to waste my energy on you any more. The matter is closed. Go hang out with Holybrook... birds of a feather. My comment was made to Mamas....not to you. You're the one who's sticking his nose where it does not belong. If you had to make a correction, it could have been more subtle. I still stand by what I said. Those were the dimensions mentioned in the AT Omega catalogue of early 2003. And if I hang out with Holbrook, it's none of your d**ned business. He's a far better human being than you will ever be!!

JJ... it could have just been a mistake in the catalogue? as honestly i have never know the AT to be made in those sizes.. although i do believe you if you say you saw these meausrements.. as other such mistakes have been known to occur in catalogues.. ie wrong sizes, wrong refence numbers and even wrong chrono bezels!!!!!!
I also count both of you guys as friends and i have known you both for a couple of years. i dont know why you are so pi$$ed at each other, but it makes it real difficult for everyone here to see our friends go at each other like this. I am sure that i amn not the only one who feels like this and guys like mike, sam, chip etc etc will also find this thread difficult. What i would say though JJ is that Holybrook has no friends on this board as he has treated the founder members here badly, aswell as mysef, darren and Bruce to name a few.. so i really dont think you shoul mention Johnny in the same breath as JBH.

well... I acyually carry two phones at any given time lol. Those days I carry the Samsung BlackJack and the BlackBerry Pearl. However... my bt headset supports multiple connections so I only have one of those on my head. LOL
My biggest dilema in the morning is What phones do I take today? LOL. I have about 60 if not more right now, and I just received two more yesterday. (Treo 750 x2)

However, a mod or admin can kindly ask that we try to co-exist here in peace. I know that we can do that. We've been doing it for over a year now. Amen to that! I consider you two guys some of my good watch friends and don't want to see either of you beat down the other one. I'm not sure what has gotten between you, but lets try to keep the peace here. If you can't kiss and make up, at least keep it to PM. As far as Holybook being a far better man than anyone....that's a load of crap. He's by far the worst human being I've had the displeasure of running across.
