My grandfather's watch
Thought I'd share a few photos of my grandfather's Omega.
Knowing I'm a watch buff, my father gifted me this Seamaster and some other affects that belonged to my grandfather.
The watch was in a pretty bad way and had been sitting in a drawer for decades. Got it back from the watchmaker this week. It was fully serviced, had a replacement crown installed and a gentle polish all around.
I'll be gifting it back to my dad for his birthday this year. What a beautiful watch!
Any good places I could look for a good replacement strap? (Ive kept the Omega buckle from the original)

Beautiful piece...what a gift
What a very nice gesture I'm sure he'll love it
