New Arrival!

Finally picked up a friend for my Railmaster 39mm! A new 3570.50.00

Really like the heavy feel of the case compared to the Railmaster. A really nice casual watch. I was wearing the Railmaster daily, but I think this will turn out to be more versatile once I get some more straps. Now all I need is a PO and my Omega craving will be done..or so I think (hope) so

What do you all think of the two!?

(Better pictures and pictures with the rest of the collection to come later...sorry for camera reflection)

Haha, look as much as you want. Hopefully I'll put some better photos up soon.

Do you own a Railmaster as well?

So, I was looking at the crystal and noticed an etching of an Omega symbol directly above the center of the watch. You can see it in this picture...



Do any Speedy experts know when Omega started doing this?

Dunno when they started putting the logo on the crystal, my 10+ year old Speedy has one too. Love the Railmaster, I want one!

Congratulations on that beautiful pair but unfortunately I can't say I trust you when you say you'll stop after that PO...Once you start collecting them you pretty much never stop...

Enjoy them!
