·My quadrant dial Seamaster Deville. Quadrant 1 and 3 are sunburst, while 2 and 4 are horizontally brushed. Not as prominent as I'd like, but will sometimes pop in the right light.

·That's a beauty as well. Mine was butchered for the movement, that's basically the same as in the Speedmasters from 1968-1972 or so. Found myself a new balance and other stuff I needed, now just waiting for my watchmaker. What's the matter with yours?
The movement is sparkling clean and runs very well keeping excellent time.
Chronograph functions all working as should but obviously needs a service given it overall exterior condition and unknown service history.
The only thing stopping me getting it complete is I can't find the correct pusher to match the other original pusher.
Next step is to send to the Omega agents to see if they can find the matching pusher from the Omega spares, as you say Tissot and Omega collaborated heavily in these watches in design and manufacture, whilst Tissot don't have the pusher Omega might.

·Which one did you like better, and why?
1.) I tend to prefer true re-issues and neither is truly a homage piece.
2.) IMHO Since Omega already produced the ‘57 Trilogy Railmaster, they were trying not to duplicate and thus went the ‘Aqua’ Rail route.
3.) When a watch has a clean dial (no date), I tend to prefer small seconds.
4.) Since there are no modern Ranchero pieces in Omega’s catalog, this is an opportunity to own a ‘Ranchero-inspired’ piece in my collection.

·It's a GMT weekend for me. During the week I'm sporting either a Casio G-Shock or an Apple Watch. Work can get a little rough so something disposable is preferred. With the AW I can see incoming text messages - usually an employee calling out - with my phone tucked safely in my front pocket. But when I'm off for the weekend I can safely break out something finer...
