Dovregubben Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Hi! Just got my Railmaster from Tony! I have tried to take some pictures, but man that was a pain in the a** without a macro lens! The numbers does not look as thin as Stephanes one, or am i fooled? http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/69219-omega-railmaster-392-mm-pictorial-and-review/ The strap unfortunally feels stiff and sharp, feels like a major tell i my opinion, but I´m no expert. Clasp looks good, but not sure about the if O-logo is correct, didnt get av picture of it.. The gold movement looks good, but i guess thats a major tell for the in-the-know And finally Overall, this is my first rep, and I am satisfied. The strap doesnt feel that good, but i guess that can be changed to another if i want. Also not totally sure about the crown/tube. It makes noise and is difficult to screw in/out. A bit afraid to break it. Also sorry about the large pictures, but i did my best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dovregubben Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Great choice , what size is that coming in at ? Thank you! Also I´am a locomtive engineer, so I really had to have one I dont have a precise instrument, but i measure the case diameter to be 40mm, same as it says on Tonys site.

cougar1 Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Nice one, the watch looks really good, I always find the railmaster really striking in a low key sort of manner. I don't think it's the old superrep which is a shame they are not available anymore, but it looks great, and on a better strap will complement it nicely.

Dovregubben Posted February 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I agree with you that it is not the same version. Can you recommend a place to shop for a better looking gator strap? Or even genuine Omega? On the other hand, it keeps great time. 6-7seconds fast over the last 24 hours. That is good enough for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougar1 Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Have a look at hirsch straps on watchbandcentre, the duke is pretty good, also Rios straps have a very good cut. There's also a seller on ebay called timepiecerepublic who does deployant straps, not perfect but much better than the low grade rep straps. If you want a much better strap then guys like peter.watchacc (search google he's on tz forums) do really good quality omega deployant straps, they aren't cheap though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
