Railmaster

Watchmaster.com is offering this RAILMASTER below for 1300euro
Indicated as From 1998

I cannot find any picture from this particular model and have doubt on the case

Your input are welcome, Thanks

oooooowwwwwwww..... definitely one to pass on I think.

From what I remember from the research I did when I bought mine, the co-axial Railmaster came out around 2003, so the date cannot be right.

The case has been butchered - perhaps there was some large damage on one of the lugs which couldn't be polished out, so they decided to "balance it up"

Also looks like a crack at 4.

It's a complete horror. No Railmaster deserves this - not even the 2017 re-release.

The reference number they give is for a 49mm Railmaster XXL. This totally ruined watch is a 2803.52.37 reference, 39.2mm. I can't imagine why anyone would do such a thing to an otherwise fantastic watch.
