OMEGA, STEEL SEAMASTER "RAILMASTER", REF. ST 135.004 - MADE FOR THE PAKISTAN AIR FORCE
The present Omega Seamaster “Railmaster” was delivered to Pakistani Air Force in 1964. Regardless of it being a Railmaster, “Seamaster” is printed on the dial instead, supposedly because the British were controlling the railroad in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh at that time. The Railmaster designation implied a bad reputation given the history of colonization.
