OMEGA – Seamaster Railmaster Review | Time & Tide

OMEGA – Seamaster Railmaster Review | Time & Tide

The Omega Seamaster Railmaster was one of the surprise hits of last year’s Basel fair. So it’s vaguely appropriate that as we’re busy speculating what we’ll see Omega release at Baselworld 2018, we look back on one of their hottest from last season. Not that we realised it at the time – the regular production Seamaster Railmaster was more of a slow burn. It’s a deceptively simple piece, lacking the hero status of its limited edition sibling, and somewhat lacking in obvious bells and whistles. Rather than being a weakness, this simplicity is the Railmaster’s greatest strength. Clean, pure design, of the sort that Omega excels at: classic, but with fine details — like the brushed dial and Railmaster text — that reward close inspection.

I hate when people complain about “faux vintage lume”. It’s a color. They made it a different color than white. Because it looks good. Chill out no one is going to confuse this with a vintage watch. It’s just a color choice.

This is all i need. Simple clean and quality watch

Great watch with a vintage touch. Can't decide if I prefer the black or grey dial !
It s crazy how this watch looks so different than the new Seamaster 300 whereas the movement inside is exactly the same (with exception it has no date)

Awesome watch. Printed on dial is fantastic. Totally understand those that do not like faux patina, but it doesn't bother me. Preowned will be a great value.

Over Christmas I finally had an opportunity to try on the limited edition version and the Denim. The 40mm definitely feels more robust. I also tried on the explorer and I still choose the Denim. I assume that the two you show in this video would feel the same way.

love mine, wearing it for 2y. Sold many others, also this may be my most rocked daily!

I planned to buy it to celebrate my first professional job in Rail Industry as an electrical engineer but couldn’t find one at boutique.

I thought i wanted the aqua terra....as it turns out...i want this 🥰

[verykeenplease]

i would love to be able to buy that watch

I thought that the (rail) master, had been the watch commissioned by the company of Swiss trains to Omega, for their train drivers, including for the railway stations...

[melchizedekpsj]

A very lovely watch. Thanks for the video.

[harrypuro]

I think all your videos are great. May I have the piano theme's name? It sounds perfect for this watch.

The whole dial disappears in direct light! Everything looks good except the dial, which is the most important bit.

[DanMcH]

I just can't take that dial seriously, it reminds of cheap wooden paneling. Great video though.

[borispradel]

I think it's too reflective, you can't see the painted dial at many angles, the steel bracelet doesn't match the case at all. It's a no no for me.

[nathanf]

I'd pony up the extra $1575 and get the Explorer!

[kaisoerfjord]

I don’t like it, especially the onion crown, the bleached table cloth patterned dial, the nicotine smoke tainted hour markers, and, yes, that funny-looking caseback edge. The bracelet seems to match, though - don’t like that either. So, a full package, there. Well done.

[seabiscuit]

Nice watch but you're wearing it wrong!

[gamebred]

Not a fan on this new trend of faux patina....hate it.
