Catalogue Note
The Omega Railmaster ref. 2502.52 was produced between 2003 and 2010. The 41mm watch combines modern features such as the legendary Co-Axial escapement with a traditional dial layout. The luminous triangular-shaped indexes and broad-arrow minute hand are reminiscent of the original reference CK 2914-1 from 1957. The present lot is indeed an attractive daily wearer with nostalgic design cues.
