Hi everyone, I need some help with getting some general information on a modern omega timepiece. I was offered a trade on this solid gold Omega railmaster 1895 limited edition. The watch is 39mm with a pretty nice case back. I was told the timepiece was purchased in Asia about 10 years ago. Other than knowing the watch was limited edition and equipped with cal 2403, it doesn't appear to be a lot of information online about this particular model, so I hope I can get some help here.
Thanks in advance and have a great weekend!

 

I had no idea this variant existed. Looks great in gold!

 

Serial number indicates it is a ref. 26085237. Based on the description looks like possibly for the Chinese market - WATCH SE CO-AX RAILMASTER CHINE/LIMITED.

Note sure what else you want to know about it...

 

Model number? It's beautiful!

 

Hummm, wondering what the "750" mark on the lug opposite the serial number is for? I'd have expected 18k or something if it were gold.

 

Thanks your comments/input. The watch is probably 18k gold and the model number matches Archer mentioned. I would like to know its reasonable to trade with a pre owned Rolex explorer 2 + $500? The owner will also bring me the box and paper this weekend.

 

Ummm...

 

I actually was feeding a baby for a few hours, who wanted nothing to do with a bottle. Much like playing 3 hours of tennis in the sun

 

Thank you all! Trade done. Absolutely Love it! The watch actually comes with inner/outer box, warranty card and instruction manual.

 

The 750 hallmark means the same as 18K gold.

 

24k is pure gold. .750 or 750 is 18k gold.

 

Nice find!

 

Cool watch especially the case back. I generally don't like the coloring of 18K gold in watches but this looks great.

 

Railmast in gold is magical.....love the image on the case back. Happy to see those hallmarks clear as day on the lugs.

Best,

Thomas

 

Awesome looking watch, congratulations.

 

Cool model! Wonder if that 18k model was ever produced on 36mm size. Do you still own it?

 

Very nice watch. Thanks for sharing!

Found some information regarding this model and the occasion.
