Omega newbie - Vintage Seamaster

Hi there

I’ve inherited a couple of my father’s watches. One is a Seamaster that was in a bag of broken watches and on a horrible non original strap, scratched up & non running. I didn’t know much about it and took it to a watchmaker in London to see if it could be salvaged.

I’m very impressed with the result! What is very cool is that I’ve since found the original box and paperwork. The date of sale is 1961!

As an Omega newbie, can any of you given me any information on the model, if it’s rare or common, maybe an estimate of value. I’m not going to sell it but am curious to know.


Thanks!

That’s really helpful, thanks so much!!
