Omega 344

That one's dial looks to be a redo and not done all that well. If one wanted a project and it could be bought right then it might be fun.

The 344 movement is great. I'm wearing a 1954 vintage Omega automatic with 344 movement today.

The dial is poorly refinished, which has a significant impact on value. Judging from the amount of dirt, it has not been serviced in a while, so you will need to account for a service. Unless it is cheap, the effort and cost you will put into the watch is likely to exceed the value. My 2c.

I work on watches quite frequently that I deem to be not worth repair! The cost of the repair being higher than the cost of a new equivalent watch. Anything might be said to have intrinsic value, and sentimental value. I count my blessings that sentimental value is why these watches get fixed. I just returned to service my Omega bumper automatic caliber 355. Sentimental value? Not really. But I have long wanted one. So perhaps I have more into it than some folks feel it is worth. But it's worth it to me. If you have bought it, or are perhaps considering buying it, check the Omega Watches For Sale forum on this MB to gain some perspective of what people are asking, for these, as well as perhaps how much some are prepared to pay for them. Get a quote for the required repairs, then decide whether the watch will be worth it to you.
