The star of today’s review is the Omega Seamaster Railmaster Master Chronometer Ref ; 220.10.40.20.01.001, it’s the first entry level luxury watch that I’ve managed to hang onto, it’s an absolute stunner which may well be the ultimate tool watch.
I picked the Railmaster up earlier this year in the sales and saved more than a £1000 on the RRP, the review is long overdue as I’ve spent a lot of time with the watch and didn’t want to make a throw away video on it.
The review is an epic at more than 19 minutes, it covers the Railmaster’s history and its technical abilities. Given the feature length duration I may choose to do a cut down straight review, I will wait to see how well the review is received.
I gathered a lot of material for the review which is included under fair usage, I’m pretty sure Omega won’t mind. I will also attach a couple of links to some websites that you may like to take a look at and learn more about the original 1957 Omega Railmaster

This Railmaster is a beauty of design and engineering without the ostentatious bling of so many watches in this class. The features all seem so well thought out. So glad to see Omega has brought it back, hopefully to stay so we can add it to our collection

I bought this Railmaster last year. It’s easily the best watch in my collection, it’s easily my favorite best wearing watch. Initially I’d only wear the watch before and after work, why job is rather physical including running some machinery. After a few months I simply found myself wearing it to work. I may regret that somewhere down the road, but for now, all is good, it runs best actively worn in a daily basis though I believe that goes for my entire collection. One thing about the Railmaster - in general, the brushing is often rather subtle, even absent such as direct, full light, it looks ink black, bottomless. It takes on grays, a touch of purple at times. The lume modulates in color a bit too though not to the degree of the dial. The hands being brushed, as the angle of light changes, so does your perception of the watch. I will suggest that the lyre lugs look better with a strap if some kind, they get lost with the fitted end links. I’ve got the denim strap which is great though too short. With respect to size, obviously it needs to fit the wearer. That aside, as an object, it really looks superbly balanced in a way that of all my watches it neither seems to wear large or small relative to its measurements - it simply looks right in terms of form. I would out of curiosity like to try on a 38 Aqua Terra or 39mm Globemaster which uses a different case to see how they wear. I believe Omega has a good eye for watches this size and they should offer more.

Great watch and excellent video.

What a great review! Thanks very much for taking the time to put it together. As the proud owner of a blue SMP and a white dialed Aqua Terra, the black Railmaster always feels like a "logical" black dialed watch in my collection. It is a bit less flashy than the other two, has a distinct look and is very very wearable, unlike the Planet Ocean for instance. Just one little remark. I believe the .10. in the reference number, refers to the bracelet and not the watch itself being stainless steel. Since the versions with a strap instead of a bracelet have a .12. in the reference number as the only difference.

I couldn't keep them away for leather. Simply the best wearable under the radar watch. Most importantly one can hardly notice any scratches on the watch as they are completely brushed. Hope you are enjoying your watch 👍🏼

I have one of these and also a Rolex Milgauss. I love both of these watches and they both do their jobs perfectly. However, my Railmaster had it’s first 2 years of wear on a railway construction project in the Middle East. It’s the perfect watch: not gaudy and in the face of those earning much less than me but not showing any of the many bumps that it has acquired so far. It has more sharp corners than the Milgauss but nothing that inconvenience you during normal daily wear. To date I haven’t damaged the anti-reflective coating on the glass either, a surprise as this is usually the first thing I scrape. It’s a great watch, just lookout for the cost of an Omega service as they tend to be expensive.

Thank you for an excellent review. The Railmaster hits my sweet spot for watches- minimalist tool watch/field watch, no date, well designed, a pleasure to look at, easy to read. I’ve been considering it for my next watch. This has helped. My daily driver is a Sinn which checked all those boxes, save for movement and the amount of anti-magnetic properties (though it has some). Is the Railmaster worth $2500 more? It just might be.

Fantastic review. However, it provides some inaccuracies regarding magnetic fields. Airport x-ray machines, microwaves and radar do not generate significant magnetic fields; they generate electromagnet radiation, which are wavelengths of light. (The word “electromagnetic” is misleading.). However, MRI machines, power plant generators, railroad diesel/generator locomotives and large electric motors produce LARGE magnetic fields. Airport security metal-detector “gateways” and “wands” also generate a small magnetic field to detect ferrous objects. The arch (gateway) metal detector one walks through at the airport is not an x-ray machine; it is a magnetic field that could affect simple watches. That’s why I put my watch in a tray through the x-ray machine, and do not wear it walking through the “arch” metal detector. My next watch will be the Seamaster Railmaster.

I thought you might be interested, curiosity got the better of me and I contacted a boutique and in turn Omega direct. Omega as expected said that it is discontinued, (approx 6/7 years ago). The reference 2806.52.37 is very old one. I think Omega are hesitant to clear discontinued items from their website, directing you to a boutique, obviously it's then the boutique's job to try and redirect something else to the customer. I experienced something similar as I was looking at the Speedmaster Ultraman pretty much knowing it was not available (although the salesperson didn't do a great job). Anyhow, I love my 49.2mm, it's fantastic statement piece. Be happy to for you to review it one day. Carry on the good work !

My wrist fluctuates in size, as do most but I reckon Im around 7", my sweet spot is 39mm, the Omega is close enough. If I were you I would try one on in store before you commit

Love it. Really torn between this & a ceramic wavy dial 300m Diver.... I'm 50 soon and want a watch to last rest of my life, think a Diver may be too "young" for me as I get old. (?) Excellent review, thank you 👍🏻 Would be interested to hear more about your job, sounds fascinating. Cheers, stay healthy.

I purchased the 300m diver but ended up selling it. I’d go with the railmaster, it swims deep enough but is more versatile. The silver is my favourite in person.

Just seen this review and I’ve been after one of these Railmasters or a Milgauss, but with Rolex prices going mental it’s been a railmaster hunt for the last 2yrs. At last I’ve found a 2019 with Denim strap and I pick it up next Saturday. I’m also tempted to purchase a steel band for it also. Is it worth it do you think ? Looking at £450 for a used band. Thing is I can wear the denim and not draw too much attention as a stainless or other metal band would. Great review

Hi Sean, I'm a fan of bracelets but I'm not sure I would spend so much to get one, the bracelet is OK but lacks fine adjustment. Its always cheaper to get the bracelet on the watch, you pay a premium to pick one up later

Would really love this in 38mm with an adjustable bracelet and underside AR coating only Alas we can't have it all! No watch is perfect but this is very good.... I'm waiting on a 36mm DateJust but this seems to be much more solid and I wouldn't worry about scratching it up unlike the DJ Just not sure about the 40mm size.... Do you think it suits a 7 inch wrist?

@@LastWatch the Railmaster 1957 trilogy version looks much more slender. Mainly due to the case design. The lugs don’t curve down enough to fit smaller wrist. The case profil is quite flat. Well, this is just my feeling and I may be a bit picky here having a small wrist.

Hello Kit. I received my Railmaster homage from the Official Corgeut Store the other day. It took 70 days! It got stuck in Singapore. Worth the wait though. I detect a slight mismatch between the tint of the hands and the indices. Otherwise, it is a great way to "test drive" a very expensive piece. Hope your delivery time is less, but I counsel patience my friend!
