        Just heard back from MB&F that I was picked for their M.A.D.2 raffle (I have entered the raffle each time). So this should be coming to me in the next few weeks or months. Not too excited to pay 31% tariff on it. Maybe I'll get lucky. Fourth green dial watch...
        M.A.D. is the (much!) lower priced small series production from MB&F. It uses a La Joux-Perret G101 movement with a custom jumping hour module.

          Man the Tudor Pelagos Ultra is mighty fine. Finally they restrained themselves from writing a novel on the dial @Giles 🤣

          Cmon sports watch makers. Take it down a notch. This looks so much better. A sports watch should tell me the basics with minimal distraction and cognitive load.

          Think it, be it.

                  I love the steel bracelet of the Planet Ocean, but this specific model looks even better on the rubber bracelet, the way it was worn by Daniel Craig in Casino Royal. I just could not bring myself to pay 400 € for the original Omega rubber bracelet, so I got myself an aftermarket version and I must say, that I'm pretty happy with it.

                    Omega has just released a pair of Railmaster models, which are basically no date versions of the Aqua Terra. Note the lack of text on the dial compared to other watches in their collection.

                      Thanks for sharing @Graeme

                      I like the simplicity of the one on the right

                        Same. Very vintage without looking like it’s trying to be very vintage. The broad arrow is a nice touch.

                        Think it, be it.

                          @Graeme the watch on the right is very similar to the version launched in 2003, except for the more limited text.
                          It’s very nice.

                            @Cole Love it! I have an 8500 with the gray ceramic bezel. And while I love the steel bracelet, I also sourced an official Omega rubber strap with the deployant, but I've always lusted after the in your picture. Where did you find it?

                                New addition to the collection. I definitely have a problem 😀

                                  Beautiful watch. I love the sword hands on this version.

                                    I was in Melbourne yesterday, and I got to see the new Omega Railmasters.

                                    Railmaster Beige.jpg

                                    Railmaster Grey.jpg

                                    The watch looks larger on my wrist in the photos. It only comes in a 38 mm case size; there isn't a 41 mm available, unlike other Aqua Terra models. It feels fairly chunky on the wrist. I would go for the grey dial with the centre seconds, as I think that it would be more versatile, particularly when paired with different straps.

                                    I like it. The trouble is that Omega announced the Spirate system two years ago, which promised even better accuracy, and they haven't released it outside of one Speedmaster. I suspect that their range is going to be revamped in the next year or two, unless it's been one of those advances that didn't pan out.

                                      Love me some Omegas. That center seconds fauxtina is a little heavy handed to my taste. I like all of the heritage inspired offerings they have put out lately, especially the Trilogy set they did a few years back. The trilogy speedy is just the perfect size imo.

                                      Settle down easy......

                                        @Graeme I saw them in person as well and I gotta say, the lume application was very sloppy on the models in the store. The watch felt nice but that’s a chunk of change for something that would irritate me.
