Ik sluit me aan bij de mening van Jeremy Clarkson over de Omega Railmaster (sorry beetje lang verhaal, wel leuk):
"I suppose that in the days when your fishmonger knew your name and what sort of cod you liked on a Friday, âbrand loyaltyâ made sense. Now we live in a world of supermarkets and corporations, it is the most ridiculous thing on all of Godâs green earth. No matter how many loyalty cards you have in your wallet.
That said, I am the worst offender. Even though I know Virgin is the best airline, I always try to fly BA. Even though I know HSBC is in fairly good shape, I bank at Barclays. Even though I know the new style of Leviâs reveals my butt crack when I bend over, I would still never buy a pair of Wranglers.
And this brings me neatly onto the question of watches. For some time now Iâve been on the hunt for a new one but the choice is tricky. I couldnât have a Breitling because I donât own an Audi. I couldnât have a Calvin Klein because they are pants, I couldnât have a Gucci because Iâm not a footballistâs wife, I couldnât have a TW Steel because my wrist isnât big enough to sport something that can be seen from space, I couldnât have a Tissot because Iâm not eight and the only thing in the world worse than a fake Rolex is a real one.
Have you noticed something odd about Rolexes? Especially the modern ones that wind automatically when you move your wrist about? A great many owners wear them on their right hand. I jump to no conclusions here but you can feel free.
Mostly, though, I cannot wear any of these watches because I am an Omega man. I have worn a Seamaster for years, not because James Bond has one and not because Neil Armstrong wore something by the same maker on the moon but because on the day I went away to school my parents gave me a Genéve Dynamic.
The trouble is that for the past few years Omega has been the Pillsbury dough of Swiss watches. The Terry and June. Omegas were dreary. They were boring to behold. They were Vectras in a world of Ferraris and Lamborghinis. The De Ville Prestige, for example, was plainly designed by someone who had a black-and-white telly.
This filled me with despair. I wanted a watch. For the same reasons that I bank at Barclays and wear Leviâs, it had to be an Omega, and it just wasnât coming up with the goods. It was like Leeds United. Once the home of Peter Lorimer and Gary Sprake but now an also-ran bunch of unimaginative clod-hopping no-hopers.
And then one day, in Hong Kong, I saw it. A new Omega. Itâs called the Railmaster and it is a thing of unparalleled beauty. There is no button that owners think will call for help if they find themselves in a crashing helicopter on Kilimanjaro, it is not waterproof to 8,000 metres, there is no stopwatch, there is no swivelling bezel to tell you how much air you have left in your tanks and you even have to wind it up every morning or it will stop. Plainly this is a watch for the sedentary soul. The man with no hang glider or mini sub in his garage. I bought it in an instant."
Prachtige Omega, veel plezier er mee gewenst!
Geweldig dit! dank voor het delen, had inderdaad wel eens een clipje gezien van Clarkson met de grote Railmaster tijdens een aflevering van The Grand Tour
and you even have to wind it up every morning or it will stop
Dat klopt dan niet, want de Railmaster is een automaat.
