Is there any know timeframe when the Railmaster, AT, or PO, will be updated or is it all speculation at this point? Apologies in advance if this is known information. Enjoy the weekend everyone!
I suspect the PloProf will be updated before any of these, but back to the “new” Railmaster.
Dials aside (which I dislike), the case also has problems. There was no need for Omega to make it so slab-sided;
if that’s your thing you probably prefer Tudor or Rolex anyway.
Omega can do way better than this, indeed they nailed it with the ‘57; thinner mid-case, domed box crystal, thinner bezel etc
As is, the modern Railmaster looks like an ashtray: in case of emergency, break glass.
And finally, making it manual would also allow for a shallower caseback further lowering the wrist profile. Although not quite a fair comparison you can see how this works when the Speedmaster Silver Snoopy with rear complication is compared to the new Chronoscope in profile
It’s a pity that Omega sold the rights to the name Flightmaster because that old FAP version of the Railmaster is still high on my grail list.
Oh well, maybe one day, in the meantime I wish you all a relaxing Sunday.
