    This has got to have been satire right? Since the upvotes/down have been blanked, I’m going to assume it had negative ratio

      I invite you to browse r/watches and then reconsider.

      Cherrypicked maybe.

    Omegas of old were like Timex watches today. They were built for function and dependability with very little to no luxury. Think BTL (built to last) over anything else.

    That said, the people who laid rails barely had enough for the essentials, including literacy. I seriously doubt they bought timepieces, but the office workers commuting to the city by rail probably did. That’s such an absurd take by the OP.
