We are glad to try to help, but you haven't given us ANYTHING remotely useful to go on. If you want help from the forum here, you really need to post a photograph.

Not trying to be hard or mean, it is just that there is no way that anyone can tell you anything useful based on the *staggeringly* vague description that it is an Omega watch with a blue face. That's like saying "do you know my friend, he is a guy with brown hair?" Or I have a blue Toyota, how much is it worth?"

To get it properly identified, you need to follow the instructions in the article "Tell Me About My Omega" in the OMEGA ZONE on this site.

You must understand that over the past 150+ years, Omega has made MILLIONS of watches, and they ALL LOOK BASICALLY THE SAME. All have hands, a dial, the Omega name on them, case is steel or gold, dial is one of 5 or so common colors, are usually round and tell time. You have to get to very specific information beyond that--information that someone who is not a watch professional would be unable to describe or find. So almost any attempt of a layman to describe one based on simply looking at the outside of it will be pathetically useless.

That's why posting a photo and having Omega look up the serial number are the only ways to get anything useful in information about a specific one of these millions of Omega watches made over the past century and a half!
