Hi,
I have this old Omega Seamaster left to me by my uncle, does anyone know anything about it?
I can not find exactly the same when I search. All I know is that it is old馃榾

Take it to a watchmaker and have him open the back. Pictures of the movement and inside the case back would help.
Appears to have some water intrusion at some point. I'm curious about the condition of the movement. Does it run?

Thank you. No, it does not run

Did you wind it? You need to turn the crown clockwise a bunch of times.

With that dial damage, I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't run... 3/4 of the dial on the 'low spots' reads to me as "the movement was pretty damp'.

Quite possible, but you'd be surprised how many new members have never used a mechanical watch. So it's worth checking.

Even in this state, a pretty cool watch. Hope it gets a service, a light cleaning, and some wearing time.

Than you, I will check when I get back home.
As I understand it is not possible to say much before it is opened.
