Thanks for your responses, I appreciate them.
I think that I will send it to Omega to be refurbished. You are right, Mike. What does it matter how much it will cost for such a powerful childhood memory and a link to my Dad.
My Dad was a weldor, and he wore this watch to work for many years. A testament to its durability. He is now in his 80's and very proud of his new 50 year union watch.
The outer ring (tachymetre) is badly worn away at the top and the numbers faded in others. Do you think that would be replaceable or repairable?
