·Hello,
First time posting on here so please forgive me if any of these questions have been answered in previous threads.
My mother came across what I believe to be a 3rd gen (1963) ST 105.003 in my fathers dresser drawer a few days ago and gave to me. Immediately I started doing research and from what I read going to an Omega boutique would not be smart. They would strip the watch of the original parts and damage the value. However, I definitely want to have it serviced as I would like to wear it on occasion. Anything I should know in advance as I search for a place to take it and have this done? The watch is still working and in average shape for a watch this old I would think. The leather band will definitely need replaced. This is my first opportunity to own any kind of higher end watch so I’m trying to learn all that I can and preserve it appropriately. Also, any recommendations on a place to take it to in the South Florida area? Thanks in advance.
