This was my Dad's watch. I think it was from the 80's. Maybe 1982? Can anyone tell me anything more about this watch? Year? Value? Thanks! Phil

Omega - Seamaster - 166.0264 Use this number to find all the information you need. Years of production 1980-1982. The cost is about 500-800 euros. But the memory of the father is impossible to evaluate. Leave it in the family.

I would put the value maybe slightly lower. The watches Omega launched in the late 1970s and early 1980s are not well received today as they were rather more workmanlike that what came before or after. Also plated watches tend to be less desirable than steel or solid gold so I imagine at an ebay auction that would make more like €300-500.

I also think the a more appropriate value will be about 400 Euro and indeed the steel version of the watches are more desirable by collectors. So I think it is better to keep the watch for memory of your father. As a gold plated watch it look nice with the plate still in position.
