·Hi All, new member here, please be gentle.
I would really appreciate a little bit of feedback on this:
My dad has given me what I believe to be his original (except strap) and unmolested (by which I mean probably un-serviced) Omega watch.
The small amount of research I’ve managed to do indicates it to be a 1954 Seamaster - this fits in as I think he bought it while doing his National Service around this time, possibly while overseas in Aden, and that it’s probably a ‘bumper’ - would you agree?
Should I be concerned there is no ‘Seamaster’ logo on the dial and that the crown is plain?
There is the faintest markings on the back of the watch (too feint to photograph) but as he wore it every day for 30+ years I’m hoping that’s not unusual.
I will be saving up to have it repaired / serviced - it runs but loses a lot of time - would anyone have an idea on the original strap, I’m presuming it would have been leather?
Any other info / comments greatly appreciated
Many Thanks
