··ΩF InvestiGatorPretty sure that is not an original Omega case. Not sure if the dial is original either
If I am correct, the watch will have very little value.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news,

·Not looking good so far but it would help if we could see a picture of the movement inside and a pic of the inside case back.

·The cases from that period I think they don't have anything written on the back..only inside. So pictures from inside will tell everything.

·The dial is original but wery cleaned, seconds scale missing. The case looks to be stainless steel and probably made by Omega. The case back is’t omega. It’s from some watch brand like -Tressa, wich come with UT6310/25 movement.

Don’t think the case or dial is Omega. The dial furniture is not exactly up to spec for Omega. Also a caseback from a different case fitting is not exactly high.

··Keeps his worms in a ball instead of a can.Here is the same dial.
Not quite and that’s my point. Yours has beveled furniture on the dial that catches light combined with a sunburst/soliel finish.
The op has thin flat cheap looking dial furniture, almost looks printed on with thick ink. Clear sign that’s it at best a redial at worst fake.

Can you show us pictures of the inside of the caseback and movement?
What country did he buy it in?

Watchmakers used to refinish dials routinely and could even replace a worn case if the customer asked. This is one reason why totally original watches bring a premium in the marketplace. Relatively few 50-60 year old watches are totally original anymore.
Hope this helps,

·Welcome. My original Omegas had refinished dials when they were serviced. It was common back in the day and your grandfather probably didn't know or care. The watch is worth about $ 1,000 - $ 1,200 in my area if it's an Omega inside. The sentimental value should be much higher to you. I'd get it serviced, put a nice band on it and wear it.
