    The sound on the background sounds like a train chugging along!

    The caseback being solid might also mean this is the first really thin 8500 family sports watch, especially if it also goes with a low profile bezel and modest WR.

    I've just tried explaining the Railmaster to my girlfriend. What is was/is, probable new release, showed her the video, explained why I'm so excited etc.

    I've never seen someone give less of a shit.

    It won't be thin, not with an 8000 series movement. I am guessing 15mm at least i.e. fat as a house vs the original or Aqua Terra versions

    Yep much thicker than the 2500 leading to fat watches. Unnecessarily fat it seems since the latest watches are much more than 1.5mm thicker than the 2500 generation.

    The 2503 is just 11mm thick. Does anyone expect the new one to be anything like it? At least the reboot will enhance interest in both the original and 2403 versions.
