·Hi folks. My late father bequeathed his Omega RAF Fat Arrow (see photos attached) to my son, and I'm hoping to confirm first whether it's genuine and second how to give it the best chance of lasting for another 75-odd years. Currently with a gentle wind it'll run for a day and a bit, so with luck it's mostly cosmetic work and inevitable cleaning that it needs.
I've read online that there were less than 6000 made for the military, but I've seen photos of others with higher numbered cases e.g. this one which makes me hope it's not a fake.
I'm in the UK, so I'm praying there are recommended specialists who could service this watch without costing an arm and a leg?
Any advice or pointers gratefully accepted.
I wasn't able to find any examples of CK2777 or 6B/542 on the database - have I misunderstood what that is for?
Cheers
Mike
