The joy of simple watches
Whenever I'm not sure what to wear I often reach out for my seiko brightz or for my neo vintage railmaster. Especially when I wonder if I should add an explorer to the collection as my first rolex, the omega is generally the perfect cure!
indeed I ended up with about half my collection as 'simple' because those speak often to me

This is the 36
A bit smaller than I normally go for but full of charm and harder to find than larger sizes. That's a beautiful selection of nice watches you have, I have a soft spot for the LF!
Good point: this Railmaster is a very good alterntive to a Rolex Explorer or a Tudor Ranger.
Came ever so close to acquiring the very same Rail reference . . .
. . . when it was introduced back in '07.

The main reason I didn't end up with it was movement snobbery; I was hoping for a Rail with an in-house Omega movement.
With the benefit of hindsight, I should've gone for your Rail. Had I, I'd have been able to wait out the 60th and bide my time until a proper manual winding Rail was in the offing.
Always, always, always listen to your heart. It'll never steer you wrong.
