    Yes, its old. The value is relative. T0 some it might be worth much and to others not so much...

    Looks to be a 14k goldcap.. Late 50's to early 60's ?. You need to open the watch up for more exact information. Aftermarket crown.

    Very big difference, a gold back usually indicates the case is solid gold, yours is stainless steel with a gold cap, which is much more common than a solid gold case.

    Here is your watch on the Omega Vintage Database -

    https://www.omegawatches.com/planet-omega/heritage/vintage-details/14462/

    It is not rare in any metal. The solid gold versions are more expensive because they are, well, solid gold.

    If the band is solid gold, it would likely be worth more in melt value than the watch.

    Please look for "Omega Seamaster Calendar Ref. 2849" on eBay.

    If bracelet is in 18k gold, it might be worth more than watch.

    Value of watch in that condition (dial not in good condition, aftermarket crown...) is not more than $500.

    For the head only, I'd say you can knock a '0' off and then some. The value of the bracelet is entirely in the gold content (if any).

    How do you find an Omega watch in your home?? I try for years to find one in my home ( except those I bought it myself) and can't find any?
    :)...you are very lucky :)
