"Evaluation of the crazy fever watch friend
No excuses are needed to play watches, just buy it."
Shengshijun is long-winded
Speaking of Omega’s hippocampus series, the first thing we think of is the hippocampus 300. In fact, the "Iron Biography" in the Haima series is also very pretentious. Yes, today I won’t talk about Speedmaster, but the Iron Basketball Railmaster. Our good friend "Breaking Bad" is a super fan of Tieba. Please tell us Railmaster Tieba .
CK2914 Railmaster
1957 was an extremely important year for Omega. The three sports watches are released at the same time: CK2913 Seamaster, CK2914 Railmaster, CK2915 Speedmaster.
1957, Omega Seahorse 300, Tieba, Speedmaster
Speedmaster corresponds to the chronometer, the Seamaster corresponds to the diving watch, and Tieba focuses on the antimagnetic watch. The three positions of are clear and clear, and each has its own characteristics to meet the market demand at that time.

Speedmaster and Haima are relatively popular, and there are many article introductions. Today I will talk about Iron Ba. Compared with the two brothers, Tieba is much more low-key and has relatively few styles released.
Iron Ba: Antimagnetic Watch
At the beginning of the 20th century, with the advancement of science and technology, there were more and more opportunities for environmental contact with electromagnetic fields. The material of the hairspring parts in the watch is particularly susceptible to magnetism, causing changes in elasticity, resulting in unstable state and large errors in time travel.
How to make the watch effective anti-magnetic (Anti-magnetic) become one of the important directions for the development of movement. Before the release of Railmaster, anti-magnetic watches were actually released. As early as the 1930s, 0,000 equipped pilots with military watches with anti-magnetic soft iron covers (the Mark 9 released in 1936, and has continued this tradition since then)
It can be said that the main idea of anti-magnetic in the 20th century is to make an anti-magnetic shell. The principle refers to the "Faraday cage" experiment. The protective back cover is made by soft iron metal. The movement is installed in this "golden bell cover" to protect it, which can greatly reduce the impact of the magnetic field on it.
, the Rolex lightning needle, known for its anti-magnetic anti-magnetization, Milgauss Ref.6541 (Yuanzu) and Ingenieur Ref.666 (Yuanzu), an engineer from Wanguo, were released in 1954 and 1955 respectively. Omega's first-generation Iron Bass anti-magnetic configuration is also the standard of 1,000 Gauss, and the three are in line with the anti-magnetic strength.

Although the antimagnetic meter sounds very high-end, there were not many users at that time. People in daily life have little demand for anti-magnetics, unlike now, where there are many electronic products such as computers, mobile phones, audio, etc. It is generally used by computer engineers, planes, trains and other places with large magnetic fields.
Because the antimagnetic target group is still relatively niche, and the Omega products are numerous, the first generation of Iron Ba stopped production in 1963. did not re-released the new Iron Ba until 2003. This time, the Iron Ba made a big change, which seemed to have little to do with the anti-magnetics. The classic disk design is reproduced, the shell shape is replaced with the current double-sided thin ears, and the classic anti-magnetic cover is also abandoned. But the road to Tieba is a bit bumpy, but it doesn’t matter. Tieba is back five years later.

Tieba 60th anniversary
This time, Tieba first replicated the CK2914 of that year in the name of the 60th anniversary, with a limited edition of 3,557 pieces. The so-called Omega three dominances have no weak teams. With its simple and charming appearance, it quickly ignited the enthusiasm of watch friends. At the same time, it launched the third generation of Iron Basketball and announced that Iron Basketball will return again.
From the style selection, you can see that Omega is full of confidence in it and launches three different color plates: light gray, dark black, denim blue, and is equipped with Nato and fabric strip selection.
From the style, it can be clearly seen that Omega's positioning of Iron Ba is a casual and sports style. It is different from the professional attributes of Speedmaster and Himama.Freely matched straps to highlight personality, convey a concept of simplicity and comfort, and are more suitable for daily wear.
Simplicity is actually more difficult to design than complexity. Each element is selected and innovative on the original basis. It is not easy to discuss. Maybe you can't tell what's special about him, , but you will know it at first sight. He is what I want.
Drug Master Review Brand new Iron Ba
Drug Master was attracted by its plate when he got it, the triangular luminous plaster scale, and the simple digital display is connected to the crosshair. There are many surprises when you look closely at the rough and brushed disk. The track scale on the outer edge and the light yellow Railmaster complement each other.
also uses a brushed pointer to show light and dark changes at different angles. The interesting lollipop second hand surprises the drug addict. The overall disc surface is very rich, which is more full and three-dimensional than the first generation. The improvement is still very well-established, adding icing on the cake to the original foundation, the track surface, crosshairs, lollipops, and fully-drawn disk surfaces and pointers make it look more vicissitudes. The effect of
Lume is still very shocking. The triangle groove on the disk surface is filled with its own Super-LumiNova luminous coating, and the blue light effect is satisfactory. However, the yellow luminous light with its own aging effect is somewhat insufficient in terms of brightness, and the long-lasting effect is not as good as the green luminous light of the diving series. The control of the shell type of
shell type is also very good, thanks to Omega's newly developed 8800 movement (8806 without the previous model), with an overall thickness of 12.3MM and a 40MM watch. It should be a versatile size. It can be seen that in the past, Omega used to make men's watch sports styles, generally distinguished between three sizes, 44.5/41.5/38.5, which also caused the population to be dispersed. In particular, the second-hand market prices will be significantly divided, and multiple sizes will also make it more difficult for customers to choose.
, and Omega's new products have begun to transform into a unique size in recent years. For example, the Iron Ba uses a versatile 40MM size, and the Diving 300 uses a 42MM size, and no longer releases small-sized models.
steel belt adopts a two-way butterfly snap-on design, and there is no way to fine-tune it. What makes the drug expert uncomfortable is that the chamfered edges are slightly cut, which will be perfect if it can be more refined.
Since the public price difference between the steel belt and webbing style is only 2,000, so choosing a steel belt configuration has become a must-have option. The price of equiping with webbing in the later stage is not high.
The seahorse design on the back cover is very eye-catching, and the dense bottom design is also faithful to the anti-magnetic concept with the Iron Domineering. The nail surface pattern highlights the three-dimensional feeling and will not feel sticky when worn because of sweating on your wrist. The design of the seahorse is meticulous and vivid, and the Railmaster is placed above to highlight the protagonist's halo.
carefully discovered that the difference from other Omegas: the back cover with large wavy teeth increases the difficulty of disassembly, and it is easy to damage the back cover without special tools. There is a small triangle logo on the lower left lug. This is Naiad Lock screw-in lock technology , which can ensure that the back cover is perfectly positioned after screwing in.
It is worth noting that the Naiad logo actually appeared as early as mid-1957. The first generation of Iron Ba crown had a triangle logo, proving that its crown was built-in rubber ring to achieve better waterproof effect. The name comes from the fairy "Naiads" who lives in streams and springs and governs these water shuis in Greek mythology.
movement uses 8806 (the vertical version of 8800 movement).
As early as 2013, Omega had used ETA, a subsidiary of Swatch Group, and ASULAB, which is responsible for research and development, to choose non-ferrous metals (non-ferrouaterials, or "non-ferrouaterials") as the material of the movement. The swing shaft assembly in the movement uses an antimagnetic material called Nivagauss™, and the fine steel material in the coaxial escapement disc is replaced by non-magnetic materials. The shock absorber spring in the shock absorber is also made of amorphous metal, thus creating a Gauss anti-magnetic watch movement up to 15,000 (Hornet 8508 movement)
From then on, anti-magnetic no longer requires the traditional soft iron back cover and thickened iron plate. The movement itself can reach close to "imperfection", and the 8800 evolved from 8500 also has this configuration.
Cal.8806 movement: bidirectional automatic winding, 35 drilling, shock frequency 25200, no-card silicon hairspring, can resist 15000 Gaussian magnetic field, dynamic storage for 55 hours, ball bearing automatic trolley.
technology advances fundamentally solve the antimagnetic problem that has plagued many years. The iron barbarian, which focuses on antimagnetics, has gradually evolved into another classic work of Omega in the long river of history.

looks are just, good-looking and not expensive (the steel chain model is public price ￥37,200), and the new iron barbarian with such a powerful movement is of course loved by everyone.
