That is a beautiful piece with a lovely dial. I hope this gets fixed up and we get to see the beauty behind that plexi

I tried to find pictures of the same dial on internet, but no luck... Thats why I might think it has some value to it... But maybe I'm wrong?

In a good (ovehauled) condition, what do you guess I could sell it for?

The watch looks legit to me. There were so many variations of these 30T2 watches that it's often hard to find the exact same configuration. However, that doesn't make them especially desirable or valuable. The jumbo references (37-38mm) are more valuable, but otherwise they are just nice collectible watches that are barely worth servicing if you are only thinking about money.

For example, I sold a nice 30T2 SC, 10.6M serial, also with a two-tone chapter ring dial for $550 USD including shipping last October. Quite similar to yours in some ways. You can judge the condition for yourself.

First of all: Thank you guys for all the great feedback, I really appreciate it!

And then over to the plot twist! I initially wanted to sell this watch, and I have already got some offers on it. Before selling, I just wanted to get one thougt out of my head..... So, I just spoke with my dad about this watch, as it was part of a bundle he gave me many years ago, and this was the only interesting watch I found among them. It turns out this Omega was actually worn by my late Grandfather over several years, and my father identefied the watch and confirmed this. So; this Omega will NOT be sold, but restored and worn by me! This is actually the only object I have to keep the memory of my grandfather going, and what a object!

Now I just have to find someone to do the job for me! 馃榾

That's a nice outcome. I think that all you really need is a new crystal and a movement service (with whatever repairs may be necessary). Perhaps you can start by just sending it to your regular watchmaker.

That鈥檚 a really nice outcome. Pleased you found this out before the watch was sold. Best of luck with the service and please post some pictures once you have it back.
