This Omega is growing on me

Purchased a while back and somewhat forgotten, the Railmaster has been on my wrist all of this week. It is a limited edition to mark the 60th anniversary of the Railmaster, an Omega model focusing on anti-magnetism. I’m reminded why I bought it - classical good looks, a highly wearable 38mm in this iteration (meant to replicate the 1950s original) and an updated Omega movement that is one of the best in class
Being relatively obscure, the watch attracts curious looks.
By the way, in the background is a piece from my collection of Chinese pottery art pieces. The quality of the glazing and pottery sculpture is sublime
