A New Take on Omega's Underrated Field Watch Is Inspired By Your Pants

The Omega Railmaster might be one of the brand's more underrated tool watches, overshadowed by the likes of the mighty Speedmaster and Seamaster The model first launched in 1957 alongside the aforementioned Masters and was, as the name suggests, billed as an anti-magnetic field watch for railway workers We have the Railmaster denim-inspired edition, which aims to incorporate the look of the material worn by rail workers both on the strap and dial.

In the case of the former, the watch is now available with a NATO-style strap made from denim and lined with leather The cheesy connection aside, the new dial color texture is very eye-catching and handsome, something the watch industry sorely lacks The rest of the watch retains specs familiar to the standard Railmaster, namely a 40mm stainless steel case, Omega's chronometer-grade 8806 automatic and water resistance to 150 meters.

The watch comes either with the mentioned denim NATO or a stainless steel bracelet and will retail for $4,900 and $5,000, respectively. . Source
