What are these two Omega's worth?

Recommended Posts

I have two Omega's and two Rolexes. I've inherited them from my father who passed away eight years ago. As I've lost my job I won't be able to cover next months rent and will be forced to sell one watch. Need to know what they're worth in £?

Both are Seamasters and one is from 50s or 60s I believe.

Blue Seamaster Automatic:

  • Crown doesn't move/turn
  • The seconds dial works only for 30min after shaking
  • Has my fathers whole name engraved on the back
  • Strap in great shape

Cream Seamaster:

  • Crown works, sets time and winds
  • Once wound-up the watch works for 30min only
  • Not sure if the strap is original
  • Has small dots on the watch face which appear to be part of the design since they are perfectly contained within its inner circle
  • Says Waterproof on the back
  • Has a scratch between the 1am/pm and 2am/pm positions

I would take them to a local jeweler, have them appraised, you may have more luck throwing a little money into them to get them in proper order but if you can't do that he may be willing to take them off your hands.

The cream sub-seconds Seamaster dates from probably the late 40's or at latest early 50's and is worth probably around £175 to £210. These small 33-35mm dress watches unfortunately just aren't "in."

The quasi-bullhead-style Seamaster (blue) is a neat retro 70's piece with the cal.1022 movement and a nice patina - this watch should fetch you around £1500 to £1750 depending on condition. These are more desirable and at 39mm are a contemporary size.

Best luck!
