firstly welcome to the forum. if you swapped this for a pair of issued boots you did ok

seeing a pic of the inside of the caseback and the serial number of movement (ie 15mil) would help to date it, but the 601 calibre is a nice manual wind movement from the 60's and perhaps earlier. off the top of my head i cant remember. the watch will probably look great after the service with a new or polished glass. the geneve was a sort of base model, but that doesnt matter. Omegas of that era were very well made and you can wear that day after day without any problems.

before you spend a lot of money on a watchstrap take a look at one of the worlds big auctions sites(you know the one) you should be able to get a genuine Omega strap with buckle for a lot less than the pretentious, but desperate dealers.

we cant discuss value on this site which is as it should be. its value is what its worth to you and a freshly serviced working watch is priceless. far better than a pair of knackered boots

best
