Omega Railmaster 1957 Trilogy 38mm Review

Team,

Sometimes the majority is right, not always of course.

This time, Dr. No and other owners of the Railmaster are 100% correct.

The Railmaster from the 1957 Trilogy is a watch that challenges my perception.

I saw it first, during my memorable visit to Omega last January and, from the trio, it was the one that didn't catch my attention.

Saw it last week and, again, it didn't triggered the "I want bit".

Yesterday, my magician sales lady made me to wear it and "voilà", I was converted!

I'm a lover of the vintage styled watches but I don't love the occasional disappointment or pain that the true vintage watches can cause.

I'm too old to search for parts that don't exist anymore, to wait forever for a repair and, worst, to receive bad news about the originality of a watch.

Omega is a brand that, like any large manufacture, makes terrible mistakes (yes!) but this time the C.E.O. Raynald Aeschlimann and team hit the mark.

The Railmaster is everything that one can want, in terms of looks, about a vintage piece modernized with an amazing quality and fine taste.

One the inside, it's powered by the excellent caliber 8806, Master Chronometer certified, Co Axial.

Let's see some pictures that I took on this foggy morning.



Sexy without being over.



Notice the Omega logo etched on the sapphire crystal. Details that shows care.



The buckle of the metal bracelet. Cool. (Of course, it comes with a leather strap that I plan to install soon).



In B&W



Hanging on my hand. Cool. (notice that there are some dirty that I forgot to clean).



Kudos to Omega for this and others from the Trilogy.

My warm thanks to Ms. L. and Ms. D. for another amazing experience.

Cheers,

Nilo
