    Sorry, I was thinking that the link with the reference was part of the end link.
    Here's the Railmaster STZ006803 bracelet

    I was taking some close-ups of the Railmaster LE dial in sunlight and just happened to see this:-

    Do you think 6 Omega logos might be too many?

    Here are a few more Railmaster close-ups etc

    Is the symbol on the dial the shadow from the symbol on crystal?

    How clever that they have put a logo on the hour hand and a watermarked one on the dial [emoji6]

    Hooray! I got “the” email from the Atlanta OB...Railmaster is waiting for me! They couldn’t get me the number I wanted but the one they have is the same number as the PIN for my long-time (25 years) and now closed, Chicago bank account! What are the odds that any watch would show up there with a meaningful number to me?! Destiny. No cold feet now!!

    Congratulations! That's like money in the bank! Make sure that you get the black leather strap and the tan NATO as both colors appear on the dial (some got a different set). These colors compliment the watch perfectly.

    I’ve read that some people were given the wrong box contents which would seem like a big problem if all these straps have different end links. I’ll be extra attentive as they ply me with champagne!

    This looks great. I think this watch would look good with almost any strap.

    The end links won’t be an issue. The watch is shipped on the steel bracelet in a plastic case so by default it will have the correct end link and bracelet.

    The risk comes with the external box and more specifically the leather travel roll, as the NATO and leather straps will be tucked under two little flaps therein.

    Let’s see some photos when you finally collect!

    I like all 3 but prefer the speed and the sea. Rail is nice but dont have the connection with it as with the other 2.

    Really very nice. So understated yet elegant.
