·Good evening all. I've recently inherited an Omega watch from my late Grandfather.
He was given the watch as a retirement present from his employer around 1975 who inscribed the back with his name and a fond farewell message. Therefore, it came with no paper work or documentation.
My Grandfather was very proud of the watch and it's clearly been impeccably well looked after until now. I hope to do the same.
I was hoping someone might be able to identify the watch for me, and offer some advice on looking after it.
I have wound it up slightly to see if it works. The second hand glides beautifully - but I'm unsure how many 'winds' are required? Is there a danger of over winding it?
Thanks so much.
