This watch was great grandfaters and im guessing from the 20's to 40's. I dont know much about the watch except a local watch shop said it was probably worth a good ammount. on the face of the watch It says Le Coultre then underneath Automatic. On the back of the watch it says 14k gold L&K. on the inside of the back it says "Longines-Wittnauer" below that "watch co. inc" "NEW YORK" "GENEVA MONTREAL" "L127" 14k gold L&K 3472 The Picture quality is pretty poor so i will read all I can on the movement. "Automatic Seventeen 17 jewles unadjusted Le Coultre Co Swiss 481" Then there are some random numbers I can read scattered through the movement "64335" "VXN" "1008019" It seems to be in very good condition for its age, it runs great, but honestly I wouldnt be able to tell if it was running sub par Also I know this last Picture is a knock-off watch but can somebody tell me if its a replica of an actual omega, I really like the style       | ||

sorry I forgot to upload the last picture of the omega. The last picture is of the actual watch. Im pretty much just wondering the value, age. I also have an Omega,possibly seamaster, not really sure the model It was given to my great grandfather as a gift. Unfortunately my dad got it wet. The movement runs fine but the part where it says the time (face maybe) looks poor. Should I leave the dials? Im looking for advice to keep it looking original, not spectacular but just clean. I will post some pictures of that as well. Thanks for helping out a noobie! | ||

Assuming it needs to mechanical work, In the ballpark of $1000. Less if dial is repainted, slightly more if it isn't. | ||

No, I meant to say "assuming it didn't need work" |
