OMEGA Railmaster Denim

The Railmaster is one of OMEGA’s most underrated offerings. It’s fantastic tool watch with just enough character to make it more than a boring three hander. The Railmaster has never been super popular and has been in and out of production since it’s first release in 1957 but, with the blue denims rich, intricate, complex dial. I think this reference is here to stay. ‪@OMEGA‬

The rail master is a cracking watch, along with the globemaster. Both under rated, but great specs. I’m fortunate to own a globemaster in steel / sedna. Superb watch.

This is my favorite Omega offerings. One of our managers at work has one....I am rarely jealous of other peoples possessions. This is one of those times where I am. Being a guy who spends a lot of time in the field as an electronics tech, it's almost like it was designed for a guy like me!!!

My rule: If you can afford it, always get a new watch on the bracelet. Straps are a dime a dozen and you can easily add them after your purchase if you want to. OEM bracelets, on the other hand, can be hard to locate later - and are usually expensive. A bracelet adds to resale value as well.

@elizabeth_grant Жыл бұрын

Good points all but this was only available in that moment with the strap and a great price. I can buy the OEM bracelet separately and still have gotten a good deal.

My EDC watch for the last decade of so is a 1949 Omega Stainless Seamster, which I have had for about 45 years. It is in beautiful condition and runs very well. It got semi retired today in favor of a new Casio Oceanus S100. I was born the same year as the Omega, and it appears as if it is going to outlast me. I hope the next person appreciates it as much as I have.

My wife wears a 1957 Trilogy Railmaster in 38mm size. She loves it and does not think it is too big. In fact it fits her perfectly. It has elegant style, and not too masculine like the Speedmaster or Seamaster counterparts. She works in the electric vehicle industry and is in contact with electric motors (motors have a magnet inside). Her watch is completely anti-magnetic and she loves every technical feature about the Railmaster 1957.

Another great piece of insight and really understand your experience of having a watch that may not be as versatile as you'd like despite it being dial-tastic. Many brands often make very cool outliers, indeed some with funky or exclusive colourways and dials, but the more traditional pieces generally win the day and wrist time in the end because they better suit your daily life. I guess there is a reason why 'classic' designs ' become icons and stand the test of time.

Thank you for the real review. This watch was the 1st thing that made me stop into the AD years ago. I saw it in a watch magazine when it came out. I love blue! But it don't choose it every day and I have 2 blue Seiko diver watches already! I saw it this morning on Jomashop for $1825. I wasn't even thinking about this one. I wanted the CK 859 and was checking for that. I couldn't believe it, the price! They are a grey market, but for that price, I couldn't refuse. I watched your video and immediately saw that both myself and my wife could share this. She laughed when I said that. Then she said do it and don't sell another watch you love. I watched your video several times. I noticed that you were wanting the Tudor Black Bay blue and eventually got it. Don't you have the same problem with pairing it with your outfits? My wife said blue goes with everything because the sky is blue. I sure love her.

If wearing a NATO the normal way raises the watch too high for you, you can easily wear it as a single pass strap. Just flip the part that normally sits beneath the watch back toward the buckle and pass the strap end through both that keeper and the buckle. This has the added advantage of moving the hardware from a conspicuous bulge on the side of your wrist to beneath your wrist, and putting the double layer of fabric under your wrist where I find it adds to comfort.

I also bought the Denim Railmaster. I wore it with the denim NATO strap for two days and probably will never wear it again (although I watched a youtube video that showed me how to use the NATO without the unsightly side fold thing sticking out an inch). But what I did was put it on a Milanese bracelet with a deployment clasp that I bought on eBay for under $110! It looks very 007, and sits low on the wrist, and its reminiscent of the NTTD titanium Milanese on the Seamaster Professional 300 that Daniel Craig wore in the last movie of the 007 James Bond franchise (don’t get me started, I am still angry). Anyway with this bracelet you also get a perfect fit that can even be easily let out for those hot sticky days (i live in Fort Lauderdale) for extra comfort. The only drawback is no Omega sign on the clasp. I have thought about bringing it to the mall (are there still malls?) and have one the kiosk people engrave it on there. It will be our secret. I hope this idea will reignite your love affair with this awesome watch!

Many thanks Elizabeth for sharing your journey to owning an Omega Railmaster. A fantastic dial that you may find yourself looking at and then having to look at it again because you forgot to read the time. I find myself doing this with a few of my watches like my Globemaster Pie Pan dial in blue on the blue leather strap, shown in the video at 1:35. It doesn't matter that other Omega watches are just as anti magnetic, the Railmaster has its own style. I can totally understand that it might not be and every day watch due to different outfits, I find the same thing when I wear my Aquis green sunburst dial but I love the watch too much to sell it on. You could always update the wardrobe a little for less than getting a new watch. Joking aside, you may only wear it from time to time but I guess when you do it feels very special. Thanks for sharing, sometimes that journey to getting the watch is a memory that comes back when you wear it.

Great vid. Great price too. 10-20% off msrp of non-limited edition Omegas is normal. 30% is great. I have the same gen Railmaster, but with the black dial. You’re not missing anything by not having the bracelet. I took mine off the bracelet and wear it on a NATO that matches the fauxtina lume. Gets a lot of wear because of how low key it is - looks at home with jeans, a t-shirt, and an old comfy pair of converse while out running errands. As a suggestion of a smaller men’s watch to check out, try a Zodiac super sea wolf on the oyster style bracelet. 40mm, short lugs, sits real low on the wrist. The bracelet is the best I’ve experienced. Looks nice, has micro adjusts, and has an expanding link system on both sides so that it adjusts on the fly as your wrist shrinks/swells throughout the day. Also, likely not an issue for you, but this helps get the bracelet over your hand (I have small wrists but big hands; I literally cannot get my hand through some bracelets if they’re properly adjusted for my wrist). They have GMT versions, and have a ton of color variations.

I love the blue denim dial. It would look great with jeans, a t-shirt/shirt, etc. But your point about not being versatile enough to wear as it doesn't work with your outfits is really important. I can see the same thing happening to me. With that blue dial, you wouldn't be able to wear black straps, so I guess it would have to be it would be, blue, brown, or a stainless steel bracelet. I am tempted to get this thought whilst it's still available, and I think it would be a nice fun piece in a small collection. Do let us know if you end up selling it.
