Downsizing.

Good afternoon. It's been many years since I posted here. Age and physical condition are requiring me to move to assisted living. Therefore, I'm selling off things that won't fit in my soon-to-be-new home that are too big, valuable, numerous or forbidden. One of the "too valuable are a couple of Omega Seamaster Professional Chronometers. The one i have a question about is the 2-tone 2332.80. I got it new in 2000, but my recollection is that it's a few years older than that. I have the box and papers, but there's no serial number with them. Where do I find the serial number and how do I determine when it was made? Thank you.

You may find the serial number on the lug

Thanks very much. The serial number is 4971****. It's on the lug and matches the serial number on the side of the box, which I missed. I think that dates it to 1986. So it languished somewhere for 14 years before I bought it through Ross-Simons.

Thanks very much for all your help and best wishes.
