OMEGA 1957 Trilogy Limited Editions – Railmaster, Seamaster 300, Speedmaster’57

clemenscito

Right on time for Tuesday. I received my new beauty! Thank you all for your advice and helping me spend a big chunk of money.

Since this is my first Speedmaster and certainly one I don't want to unnecessarily scratch I need your help on how I adjust the bracelet? Do I use the pin tool that came with it like a screw driver? Seems odd since the pin tool has not the greatest shape to put torque on the screw I would think.

Would love your advice! 😀

Thanks again!

Take it to an AD for adjustment. The bracelet screws are pretty tight and you are liable to mess up the head of a screw trying to get them loose if you've not done this before. I ask me how I know...

You only live once. Go get one.

It really is a beauty.

Has anyone seen a new Speedmaster Trilogy in an authorized dealer in the US recently or know of a reputable source to secure one? I'm looking to pick one up at msrp.

Thanks OF.

Hello,

Hopefully not too late to the party here... I have a lead on a pre-owned Seamaster 300 '57 and wanted to ask you folks here for photos/thoughts/opinions on the fit of it -- in particular the 48mm lug to lug length -- on a very boney, flat, 6.5 inch wrist? I love the watch but since I cannot find one local to me to even try on prior to this potential purchase (seller is halfway across the country from me) I am a bit worried that the lugs will be too large for my wrist. As a reference, I usually wear a 36-38mm diameter watch with lugs that don't exceed 46mm in length.

Any help greatly appreciated!

I have exactly the same wrist size and composition and tried this watch on last week. You'll be totally fine as far as the lugs go and the watch will fit you very well. That being said, taste is subjective, and I will warn you that the watch will wear substantially bigger than those already in your collection. I wouldn't say the Seamaster is overly thick, but it is probably a bit burlier in that aspect than what you're used to, so you should be ready for that. Again, I'm not saying it's a good or bad thing; it's just something to note.

On a semi-related note, I found an AD with all three trilogy models still in stock last week. I thought about buying all three (there's still a better chance than I'd like to admit that I do go back for the others), but ultimately decided on the Speedy. The other two are also incredible, but I already have the "regular" Seamaster 300 so I figured it didn't make sense to have that and the trilogy one, and I've gotten a bit bored with very simple watches like the Railmaster before (I need some chaos, I guess, 😀). The Speedmaster was what initially got me into watches a few years back, so I'll always have a soft spot for it, and I've been on both a vintage and smaller watch kick as of recent, so this made almost too much sense. I do think this will be one that was sort of overlooked by many -- not that it wasn't/isn't popular -- and will become very sought-after in the future. It's incredibly well-executed in every way, has a better bracelet than any other Speedy, and is also a diameter that will look great on wrists of all sizes.

I would just add that all three are beautiful and impressive watches, the best homage watches I've yet seen, and they wear very well. The bracelet is top notch. If size is a concern, did you consider the smaller Railmaster? Choosing one of these is terrible. Omega should sell the trio for 6k. They are truly fantastic watches.

I pulled the trigger on 60th 300 Seamaster last year but for various reasons it has not had much (any) real wrist time. I started wearing it properly this weekend and I am really enjoying the watch. I wanted it for the history, the accurate reproduction plus the fact it is a limited edition... But I am now loving / enjoying it as a daily wear watch. Beautiful, functional, easy to read and the countdown bezel is a nifty and novel feature.
