Omega incoming for me.

I have another thread about helping my cousin out with acquiring his explorer II, but in the process, I received his blue railmaster. I finally got to try this one out and I can honestly say, it’s a great one.

Congrats on moving to a watch you liked better. I had the denim Railmaster for a bit. The dial is great! I just couldn’t get the right combo of links to fit my wrist so I traded it in at the Rolex AD.

I agree, I’m looking for the good fit on the bracelet, but I knew this one was going to wear on a strap.

Have you thrown it on a strap yet? Been thinking about picking this up since it was released and would buy it on bracelet but wear it on a Vintage style leather strap.

Could you also post a profile view that shows how downward the lugs turn towards the wrist? When set face up on a table does it rest on the caseback or do the lugs touch the table? Something I like about the BB58 and Explorer 1 is that the lugs curve down sharply to conform to the wrist and I’ve noticed that the speedmaster with the twisted lug case seems relatively flat.
