Omega

Felt I would go for this at some point - I mean it’s only natural, given the name This is perhaps a cop out with the rail unlikely to ever carry a train but the real deal will come soon enough Have a great weekend! ...  

A piece I thoroughly enjoy for sure.

Cheers, HSTE

Although I like my Railmaster far to much to try the same And while it is a METAS certified Master Chronometer, I don’t think that trains running over it were part of the testing Thanks HSTE!

The strap pairing is also nice, but this is one of the nicest modern Omegas in my view.

Fully agreed. Fresh, with many elements I like - so I feel it right that Omega gets a reward (in the sense of people buying it) for this
