Not going to post what I paid, but I picked up this watch recintly. It’s in a bit of rough shape and currently have it as the local jewler having it looked over. Can you guys tell me more about whatI got here? And how much it’s worth? And yes it works

 

It's an Omega.... Sorry, couldn't resist. Cool find.

 

Yeah thanks for the info haha!

 

While your watchmaker is looking it over, have him take photos of the movement, including all numbers, and the inside of the case back. Once you have those, bring them here and we can give you the information you're seeking. Currently, it's worth what you paid for it.

 

Will due, this best I got for you is the watchmaker said it’s “100% authentic” when I brought it in.

 

I'm not questioning the authenticity. You asked about what you have, I'm telling you what you need to provide.

 

Got it thanks

 

For pricing, you can use the advanced search feature on eBay to search for SOLD vintage gold-plated Omega DeVille models. This will give you a reasonable idea of value. You should focus on examples with visible wear to the case, since that will affect value. But I definitely agree with the above, you will get more accurate advice if you provide more detailed information from the inside of the watch.

 

I would wait until you have the reference number.

 

Agreed. But he is probably curious to get a rough idea before then. I would be.

 

I wouldn't want to get my hopes up until I knew what I had.

 

Gold filled (see worn lug ends) Looks like redial, but can't say with certainty. Mid sixties (applied flat foot logo). Corrosion on the indices and around date window (possible moisture intrusion). Shooting from the hip. $200.
