The Railmaster is back!  Wait, what? You've got some explaining to do! What made you flip it in the first place (chasing something else?) and then what made you go get it back? I've only rebought one watch that I flipped (Marathon SAR) and did end up reselling it again (too thick/top heavy), but I keep looking at the Omega Seamaster GMT Great White. I flipped that one for the Exp II, which I love and still have, but I miss the wave dial and sword hands. |

Baco Noir That's it, exactly. Flipped it for something else. Although, to be honest, so many in such a short time that I don't remember exactly what I flipped it for.  A friend had one on his wrist last week when we got together, and that really got me going again! The Railmaster is the only watch, possibly with the exception of the Explorer 1 I owned, that I can say is perfect for the guy with only one watch. Which is part of the plan, but might take a while!

carl - congrats on bringing it back home. With retirement my watch buying is just about done, but I spoke to Peter this week and we will be visiting him in Charleston in September and he’s trying to push on his rep to see if he can get me the WG sub by then. Fingers crossed 🤞

Baco Noir I truly hope you get that WG Sub very soon. It must be a couple of years now since you first put in the request? I am certain once you do get it, your patience will be rewarded. Can't wait for that day when you finally get to post it!  I haven't said it often during all my years of flipping. But the sale of my first Railmaster was truly one of my regrets. I knew, however, if I was to ever get another it would have to be a new one, and the chances of that happening were slim. Until I was at the Omega Boutique a couple weeks ago.
