Vintage Omega quartz repair worth it?

Rod Sterling in The Twilight Zone, Elvis Presley in Blue Hawaii, every MIB agent in all the movies (Will Smith had the chronograph version). I fell in love with it when I was just a little kid and saw it on The Twilight Zone, it’s what started my fascination with watches…
Fun facts! The Ventura was the first electric powered watch and the designer Richard Arbib was the man Stan Lee based the character Howard Stark on (not Howard Hughes as is often thought). Robert Downey Jr. wore a version (one of the new ugly ones unfortunately) as a nod to him in one of the Iron Man movies.
I have the Sapphire and the acrylic, love them. I wear the sapphire more often since I don’t have to worry about scratching the crystal but I appreciate the slightly more vintage vibe of the acrylic. Can’t go wrong either way.
Smart, I really like the winders set up inside. I’ve been considering getting a safe as I’m moving into an apartment complex. I may steal your idea!
if you have a smaller collection ta a look at these. Best compromise I’ve found between those crappy $30 Amazon/EBay boxes and the multiple hundreds of $$ higher end boxes.
solid wood, felt liner and nice hardware. Not advertising for them I’ve just spent years and way too much on boxes so I know what a pain it is to find nice ones.
