··schizophrenic pizza orderer and watch collectorWith the redialed dial it’s not worth much.
All the model information is on the inside caseback. Find a competent watchmaker to open the watch and take some photos.

Also, no need for a watchmaker on this one. You can open it with a thumbnail. I doubt there is any model info, but should have case markings re: origin and gold content.

··schizophrenic pizza orderer and watch collectorSeems a bit harsh to me. Even if it is a redial ( I have no strong feelings either way, not sure how much you can tell with the crystal being so damaged), it still has significant value. If not, and it is solid gold, it may be worth thousands.

The pencil lines still on the dial from where the watch maker wrote Omega 😉 is a give away to a redial…
Also not everyone has the skill and knowledge to open a case properly, I always try not to encourage people to open a watch as have seen many a good watch ruined by scratches

·The refinished dial isn't of the best quality, but there will still be some collectors interested, since these models aren't too common.
It's worth getting a watchmaker or jeweler to fix the flimsy brass hinge pin.
