Is Rolex really better than Omega?

Which is better Omega Seamaster or Rolex Submariner?

Is Omega Aqua Terra a dress watch?
The timepiece is a luxury dress watch that also has an everyday and sporty side to it, heralding back to Omega’s strong links to the sporting world. They are water rated to 150m, and most Aqua Terra models are only produced from one to five years, making them slightly rarer than most Seamaster and Omega watches.

: reason for this? The Aqua Terras are more expensive because they contain Omega’s co-axial movement. This movement is Omega’s best movement and is more expensive to manufacture, so all co-axial watches are more expensive.
Can you swim with Omega Seamaster?
Even the Speedmaster Professional “Moonwatch”, with a water resistance of 50 meters, can be used in the water. But just take note that you shouldn’t operate the pushers or crown underwater. I wouldn’t recommend swimming with the older and vintage Speedmaster models that only have a 30M rating.
