DESCRIPTION:
WW - Omega Railmaster Official, ref 165.002, automatic, 34mm x 40mm to lug tips, 18mm lug width, original stainless steel screw back case with embossed hippocampus and Seamaster on case back, brown leather strap, original white dial with black Arabic numerals, 17J cal 550, s#23471063, railmaster s#2144, triple signed. Made by Omega for the Canadian Pacific railway, early models can be seen to be marked as Railroad Official Standard until Ball took legal action.
