Omega watch

Hi,

I am looking for some information regarding a watch that has been passed down to me from my grandad. I’ve had the watch a few years now, it currently doesn’t work, but I think it just requires a new battery.

it would be nice to have an idea on how old this watch is? It’s in very good condition so maybe not as old as I’ve been led to believe.
Im interested to know from experience a rough idea of costs to get the watch serviced if possible? It would also be nice to know if the watch is valuable, however I’m not intending to sell it. I have attached some pictures.

Thank you in advance

Chris

1342 movement is from the late 1970s (Edit: as @X350 XJR said while I was typing). Depending on whether there is still a battery in there and whether it may have leaked it may be possible to get it running again. Depending (that word again) on where you live you may (that word again) be able to find a local independent to sort it out. I failed at the time to find one and my 1342 went to Bienne at a cost of over £400 five years ago. It will not have got cheaper since then.

Nice watch though, I wish my grandfathers had been interested in watches.

Oh yes, value? There is little enthusiasm for these early quartz Omegas, a rather small number of hundreds of your local Cowrie Shells.
