klocklind1 Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Hi all railmaster lovers! I have seen a lot of nice pictures of the railmaster with the aligator strap with deployment clasp on it and it looks fantastic BUT: Do You know if it really IS GENUINE aligator leather in the strap ( with deployment clasp!) that perfect clones and trusty etc sell for 78 $? And do You know how LONG each of the strap-parts are ? Most replica straps is in gator ( only printed aligator/crocodile pattern on leather !) PLEASE show Your Railmasters with the straps You have on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhooq Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Do You know if the replica-foldingclasp is cloose to the genuine one ? Some dude made a photo comparison of the rep and genuine 16mm clasps some time ago. Note that the rep clasp in that thread is one of the better ones. There is a cheaper style of deployant found on the lower-priced Omega reps. They're not close to the originals at all, so you should be able to spot them easily.

lhooq Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 You're welcome! Slight correction, though: The comparison was between rep and gen 18mm deployants, not 16mm. Also, if any of you can tell me where I can buy a 20mm, honey brown, curved-end, gator strap for an 18mm deployant buckle, I would be extremely grateful. A couple of the bigwigs at Omega WUS have these beauties, and they are amazing (and amazingly expensive). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
