VIDEO: The understated chameleon – Omega’s Seamaster Railmaster
The Omega Seamaster Railmaster was one of the surprise hits of last year’s Basel fair.

If you’re a regular reader, I’m willing to bet that your views around quartz timekeeping will be pretty negative. After all, this is a technology that was (almost) responsible for the downfall of mechanical watches. But, as you’re about to find out, not all quartz watches were created equal.
