What a reliable and durable timepiece it is. How old was it when you purchased it? You have had 22 years of excellence for $50!! Wow!! Anyway, a total stem-to-stern overhaul will run around $300-400, at least. I would say go for the full-tilt boogie and have it done up right and proper. I do not know where you are but I would contact Omega and get the process rolling. My '72 , purchased in '90, was finally given the overhaul two years ago and it now runs at +2 secs a day and looks great. A bracelet (Omega) will probably run another $250 or so. But hey--what a return on an investment and the thing will be good for another 30 years. Good luck!
