Alex was kind enough to E-mail me some pics of the watch.

Here they are :-

All I can say is that the watch looks to be in lovely condition. The textured dial looks great.

Alex, you said in your original post that you were considering getting the watch completely restored. If you decide to do this, pick the restorer wisely.

For me there would be no choice, I would send it back to Omega in Switzerland. They may not be the cheapest, but they do amazing work. the watch will come back looking like new.

Depending in where in the world you are, some of the forum members may be able to recommend other, more local , watchmakers.

Many thanks for sharing the information & pics of this wonderful watch with us.

Steve
