    Hi all,

    For those of you who have one or all of the Trilogy LE, which are your favourites and why?

    Someone asked me this question today and I kept going down one then remembering why I like the other and then going down that path and remembering why I like the third and went around in circles. I love them all <3

    I suppose if I HAD to choose, it would be the Seamaster but then again the Speedy is slightly edging ahead and after wearing the Railmaster on leather for the first time today that has also an edge! See I'm just going around in circles again...

    Started out as the Railmaster, but the more I saw it the more it became the Seamaster, and I bought one new. I'll be keeping my eye out for Railmasters on the secondary market though :)

    I know Topper Jewelers in Burlingame, CA (my local Omega AD) has listed or is about to list a pre-owned Railmaster (not mine!).
    Give them a call and ask for Rob, tell him OT sent you :)

    Nice strap on that Railmaster, ranxoren.

    Thanks! It's the one that comes with the Seamaster trilogy watch.
    IMHO I find they didn’t really pair the leather colors well. The Seamaster strap looks best on Railmaster, Speedy strap best on Seamaster, and Railmaster strap best on Speedy.

    For the Natos I think they did a good job except the Railmaster, i dont like the color of the Nato that comes with it.

    Yep, the NATO with the rail master is fairly horrible and will definitely be staying in the watch roll. I sourced the speedmaster strap for the rail master, and while a bit darker it works pretty well too. That said, I don’t mind the black. Looks almost rubber like.....

    Great photos with superb strap / bracelet pairings for each watch. I can see your challenge in choosing a favourite:) I would definitely keep the Railmaster on leather and the Seamaster on a bracelet.

    Good feedback, ranxoren! By any chance do you have a photo of the Speedy /Railmaster leather strap combo?! Would love to see it! Thanks!

    Yeah I went back and forth on the Seamaster strap or the Speedy strap. Looks great on yours!
    I ultimately chose the Seamaster strap because the strap color matches the patina really well and the stitching matches the white numbers well too.

    Thanks! That's the plan for the time being! Though I keep seeing incredible photos of the Speedy on bracelet and wonder whether the Seamaster should go on a Nato and have the Speedy on bracelet instead! They are so fun!

    Thank you! Do you mean the Speedmaster with the Railmaster (dark brown almost black) leather strap on? I don't but I'll take a photo for you later tonight.

    Yes. You stated “Railmaster strap looks best on Speedy.” Would love to see a photo of this combo. Thanks! Appreciate it!

    The Railmaster’s my favorite since it’s the only one I have. :)

    I have the Speedmaster and absolutely love it. However the Railmaster is a real sleeper hit if you ask me. I haven't seen on in the metal, but the size looks perfect.

    Agreed... I'm REALLY loving this Railmaster combo (with the Seamaster strap):

    Sorry for the not so great image, I am wearing the Speedy on Nato so I just set the leather strap on top of the spring bars.
    I still think it would look great on a brown leather strap but the one that comes with it is -IMHO- a bit too dark and the wrong hue of brown and the one that comes with the Seamaster is a perfect match -again IMHO- for the railmaster (see above)

    Railmaster on leather looks great but I would still prefer the Speedmaster.
