Shot of my Omega Railmaster

Haven't had a chance to share my pics so I thought I'd start off with my favorite pic of my Railmaster.

I like to take my pics outdoors in the daylight. (I hate working with a tripod)

Taken with a Sony A300 DSLR.

Let me hear your thoughts!

I will post a couple other watches later today.

Ryan

I love straps on watches like that. I have chocolate straps on similar vintage Omegas and Oysters.

Unfortunately I don't know the weight off hand. I THINK it was the 42mm version.
