Quick TakeImagine a railcar thundering down vintage tracks– weathered metals with burnished patina against the rugged terrain. That's the spirit of this Railmaster. Its brushed grey dial feels utilitarian, stark, yet somehow elegant. It's begging to be paired with a worn leather jacket. Those vintage-toned lume plots? They glow just enough to read in the dimmest speakeasy. But don't be fooled, under that old-school charm is a cutting-edge heart: a Master Chronometer movement that sneers at magnetic fields. This is a tool watch with vintage vibes for the modern collector.
Description
The Omega Seamaster Railmaster Ref. 220.12.40.20.06.001 is a contemporary iteration of a classic timepiece, boasting modern technology within a vintage-inspired design. The watch features a 40mm stainless steel case, crafted with a vertically brushed grey dial and a brown leather NATO strap.
The dial itself is a symphony of subtle textures and luminescence. A vertically brushed grey background provides a clean and contemporary base, while recessed hour markers and hands with brushed stainless steel finishes add a touch of sophistication. These markers and hands are filled with “vintage” Super-LumiNova, a luminescent material that emits a green glow in low-light conditions, ensuring legibility even in the dark. The vintage designation refers to the color of the luminescence, which possesses a slightly warmer hue than standard Super-LumiNova. For a final touch of heritage, a transferred beige “Railmaster” inscription rests just below the 12 o’clock position. The stainless steel case measures 40mm in diameter and 12.7mm in thickness. It features a domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective treatment applied to both sides. This coating minimizes glare and ensures a clear view of the dial even under harsh lighting conditions. The caseback is oriented with a wave-edged design and utilizes Omega’s Naiad Lock (patent pending) technology. This innovative feature keeps the wording on the caseback upright regardless of the watch’s position.
Encased within the timepiece lies the Omega Co-Axial Master Chronometer Calibre 8806, a self-winding movement renowned for its precision and resistance to magnetism. METAS (Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology) certification signifies that the Calibre 8806 has undergone rigorous testing and can withstand magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss. This exceptional feat of engineering ensures the watch’s timekeeping accuracy remains unaffected even in environments with strong magnetic presences. The Calibre 8806 boasts a power reserve of approximately 55 hours, meaning the watch will continue to run for that duration after being fully wound and removed from your wrist. The brown leather NATO strap provides a comfortable and secure fit on the wrist. Crafted from non-grained calf leather, the strap boasts a smooth and supple texture that conforms to the wearer’s wrist for optimal comfort. The underside of the strap is also made from calf leather, ensuring breathability and minimizing the risk of irritation. A stainless steel pin buckle completes the strap, offering a secure and polished closure. GenderMen
