Omega Seamaster c. 1960s
I sent in my fathers old time piece for servicing at Swatch Group S.E.A. (S) Pte Ltd.
They quoted something like S$1090 for complete maintenance service and S$900 to refurbish the dial.
I would be interested to have some opinion if this is worth doing.

If you have a highly rare early Omega with a complex complication, there's a slight possibility this cost is in line, but impossible for us to guess.
Many many thank!
Would love to send you pic, but I don't have it with me now. The watch was shipped to Omega in Switzerland by the agents in Singapore for their assessment. They also told me that if I do not go ahead with the repair, they would return the watch but cannot...
