Is it worth trying to restore?

I don’t know enough about these old Omega’s, hopefully you guys can advise. It seems to be missing a bezel, and the crown doesn’t look original to me. Are original parts for this going to be difficult to find? I have invested $400 in the watch already, it’s running but badly in need of a thorough clean and oil. Can anyone recommend a source for a reasonable bezel? Thanks in advance for any info

Any info? What’s it worth?

I just got this back from service and it runs great. I have tried to research online, but I find a lot of conflicting information. Apparently these “bar code” dials are from 1969- 70, and rare to find in Navy Blue.

Restoration question, please advise.

I’m going to try and fix up this old Longines Officer’s Trench Watch, it’s a Sterling Silver case. I don’t have much experience with these early pieces. Does anyone know what the original, period authentic crown should be? I have searched online and found several different examples, but they may or may not be original. Any one with real world (not google AI) knowledge who is willing to share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

ZENITH AutoSport Caliber 2552 PC

Just got this little 1970's looking Zenith, anyone know info about this model? It's running smooth so far, but I haven't tried setting the date yet.

Here's one I don't see everyday...

Wittnauer 3000 Calendar... anybody know anything about these? It seems to be winding, setting, and running fine, but I will be honest; I have no how the second lower crown and calendar are supposed to function. Are these collectible enough to justify putting a couple hundred into servicing?

Delbana

Minty fresh, running beautifully with the Landeron 48 Caliber Killer. I've gotta get it onto a better strap.

Any of you guys have any history on DELBANA? Apparently they are still in production, although the company has been sold several times. It seems they are currently owned by DELMA Watch Ltd. of Switzerland

Any BIRKS fans here?

I’d never heard of Birk’s but apparently they are a big deal in Canada and put out some timepieces with top quality Swiss movements. Any collectors out there who can give me some info? Thanks in advance

Memosail Regatta 1 & 2

Some of you seemed to like the 1972 Memosail Regatta Yacht Timer version 1 which I posted yesterday with my Knicks outfit, so I figured I would show you her younger sister . Both feature a Valjoux 7737 but the 1 is a donut/UFO shape from the 1972-73 Championship year when Clyde Frazier, Earl the Pearl, Dave DeBusschere, Willis Reed and the gang ran thru the Lakers 4 games to 1.

Rodania

I got this one today, it's got a Landeron 248 movement, looks to be from the 1950's but in beautiful condition. Would love some more info on Rodania (and this particular model) from knowledgeable folks on here.
