·Hello. My first post, I just registered.
This is my father’s gold Seamaster Automatic. I believe it was made in the 70’s, perhaps 60’s. There are no marks/inscriptions on the outside, except in the buckle, where you can read “MF 18K” (see last pic). On those years it was not uncommon (so I’ve been told) for Omega to send watches with leather straps or no strap at all, so that the distributor/rep/customer would fit/replace the strap with a locally made gold strap. I believe this is the case here, with the buckle inscription MF being the initials of the goldsmith who made the strap, and 18K its purity.
I would like to know any info you may know about this watch, as well as its current estimated value.
Thanks/Ignacio
