The 1957 original Omega Railmaster was a straightforward, useful, yet sophisticated timepiece made for railway employees or anyone else who worked near electrical fields. This innovative spirit has been continued today with an updated model that further expands the Railmaster's capabilities.
This 40mm model is crafted from a stainless steel case, with a wave edged design on the caseback. The recessed hour-markers and brushed stainless steel hands, which are presented on the vertically brushed black dial, are both filled with "vintage" Super-LumiNova. Additionally, a beige "Railmaster" indicator that has been transferred adds a vintage touch. The watch is accompanied by a two-tone grey textile strap with a pin buckle fastening. Powering this model is the OMEGA Co-Axial Master Chronometer calibre 8806, certified by METAs. This Railmaster model mimics the excellent anti-magnetic qualities of its predecessor and is able to withstand magnetism of 15,000 gauss.
Introduced to the world in 1948, the OMEGA Seamaster collection has expanded to include a wide range of complications and configurations, each with their own unique identity. Tying these watches together is the unparalleled commitment to the art of crafting underwater tools. From the classic elegance of the Aqua Terra range to the functional Diver 300M timepiece, each watch has undergone rigorous testing, not only for functionality but also to stay true to the OMEGA design ethos. Famed for their ties to the ocean, the OMEGA Seamaster range is more than a timepiece; it’s a celebration of the seas.
