lanikai Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 There were numerous members interested in the Omega Rail-Master .. imo one of the best "out of the box reps" Some of the Omega line can be qualified as the Best of the Best .. again .. imo... I remember a member ... TTK had a RM custom made for him with a DW .. the genuine has no DW..Compare the rep to the genuine.. you will be happy.. I took some dirty pics.. I can do better pictorial if there is a desire amongst members for them.. it sits very nicely.. streamline .. Deployment clasp the lume has not been fully charged.. and keep in mind it is 3 years old..still very good A~C Lani Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubiquitous Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 It's a classic... Simplicity... Sharp and clean... Very nice! I think I prefer the Railmaster over the Explorer I for aesthetics. Looks great, Lani! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utheman Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Hey Lani, I've always liked the Railmaster and been thinking of getting one for a while now. Is this the 39mm version? What dealer did you get it from? tia w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P4GTR Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I like it. That strap adds tons of character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What dealer did you get it from? tia w this is the 39mm, it appears bigger imo due to the ratio of crystal to case.. this is from Joshua .. Perfect clones.. it's very, very comfortable to wear.. and the strap is not a give away as the other reptile reps are.. L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lanikai Posted September 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 it was too late to take a pic of the case back.. it is a display back.. I'll get pics up of the back tomorrow.. L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brodie Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 I'm surprised you don't find it too small. I don't have large wrists by any means, but even for me it felt and looked a little too small my wrist. So the wife borrowed it and never gave it back. Glad one of us could wear it because it is an awesome watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Great model indeed Lani. I have a real cheapy version bought a couple of years ago from Tonyxkf (now Watcheden). Not a bad model for the money but would like a better version. I have mine on leather too, having ditched the SS strap because the buckle was always popping open. Yours looks superb, though.

redwatch Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Very simple and classy! I like it. I was quite surprised to read that the strap is the one that came with it. It's very nice. I had initially thought it was an aftermarket! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertk Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Lani, that's a classic beauty. I also got mine from TTK, the larger version. It is remarkably accurate and should be classified as a super rep based on its accuracy. I think we both bought it in the day when it came with a real eta. Looks great on your wrist!

Yes, they came with eta engines back then ...this is the larger version.. (large is understating the fact).. it's the biggest watch I own !! thanks Rt.!!... I would stick with the 39 mm .. attracts more subtle attention.. A~C L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimster Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 That is one very accurate watch - the 39mm. I just tried a gen last week and from your photos see nothing strange on your rep. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valerian Posted September 16, 2009 Report Share Posted September 16, 2009 Cool! We're having a comeback moment here! I searched the forum for weeks abot this watch then decided to buy a Railmaster 39mm a few weeks ago. Precious Time still sells it and I find it to be a very accurate and most of all very beautiful watch! Thanks for bringing this up, Lani! Val.

dannyboy Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Mine came with a really poor rep strap. I ended up swapping with a shark, but your croco looks very nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
