Hi, New here 😀 I was just gifted a smallish 18k Omega watch that was my husbands grandmother’s Its old, I have pictures of the inside etc with numbers but Im not sure how to figure the age or value…. or be 100% sure what Im looking at. Wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction? Thanks 😀

Here is a rudimentary chart from Omega:

Based on the above, the watch was likely made in the early 1950’s. The dial was refinished at some point.

Small “boy’s size” watches like this have very little collector value, especially without the original dial. Value is likely the gold melt value plus $50 or so for a working movement.

Hope this helps,
