Omega 1977 Watch

Hello,

I've got an Omega watch in my possession which I think is an Omega Automatic 9k Gold watch. Originally bought from Garrards in 1977.

I'm just wondering if anyone knows of it's value.

TIA

I don't have one at the moment, but it looks plain gold. No engraving or markings

My apologies. Please allow me to rectify with a bit more information.

My name is Rob and following my father's funeral, we have started to inventory his possessions and my son found this watch in a case marked Garrards with no paperwork aside from a guarantee which states that the watch was sold in August of 1977, which is approximately a month before he retired. I have asked my son to send me a photo of the rear of the watch, which he stated was plain gold with no marking or engravings.

To clarify, I'm not after a quick sale or anything but more to see whether or not I need to have it insured.

The strap is leather has a gold clasp with what looks like the word 'bros' engraved on it. I did a Google image search and the model it looked closest to was what I mentioned above.

I know the details are lacking but I would appreciate any information anyone may have on it.

Many thanks

Ah I see! Everywhere is closed now as it's 8pm where I am. I'll see what I can do tomorrow. Thank you for the help

The watch needs to be opened by a professional watchmaker. A jeweler might mess it up.

Thank you for this! My first instinct was to go to a jeweler!

Worth taking the time to find the right person who does that all day. A bad scratch cannot be removed and could ruin your precious keepsake forever.
