    Hello, a new member here. I have two Omegas I need help identifying, dating and any other helpful information.
    The Seamaster is a family heirloom which does not run and needs a band.
    The bracelet model was purchased about 20 years ago. It also does not run and the bracelet was accidentially bent and needs repair.
    Any and all info and/or suggestions will be most appreciated. Thank you. DSCN0015_NEW.jpg DSCN0017_NEW.jpg

    Nobody's answered this as they're not really popular collector watches so I'll just say value wise, I don't know much about the first, but the second looks like a 70s style integrated bracelet watch that was popular at the time, if its solid gold, its worth probably melt value maybe a bit more, just because that 70s styling isn't popular today.

    The first one if its solid gold could be worth at least melt value, I've never seen a Seamaster in one of those cases so I can't say much more

    The first watch is a US market Seamaster in 14K gold, ca mid 1960s using the cal 670/671, 17/24 jewel automatic movement. Can't remember the ref number off hand.

    In as shown condition, the dial appears to be original, $400 or so.

    Again not a really desirable style.

    Thanks for your input. Regarding the Seamaster, I've never seen another like it, nor have any who have seen it. The BA De Ville is a bit more recognized.
    As the Seamaster is an heirloom, I'd like to get it repaired to operational condition so that I may pass it on to my oldest grandson. Likewise on the BA, to my younger grandson. Collectability/melt value are not that important. Thanks again for your input.
