Help please

I am a 20 year old with a 16 year old brother. We were recently bequeathed 3 brand new Pateks and 1"vintage omega? - It says 18K on the back. There are also used Pateks that were worn by my father and grand father- a total of 9. 3 Pateks are brand new, in their original boxes and we have never see our father wear them. The straps don't even have a bend in them. My brother and I are also are most privileged to have them and trying to ascertain an equitable

distribution of at least the 4 in the picture. While we can see the model numbers of the Pateks on the tags, we are clueless about the Omega. We could very much use some help/guidance/suggestions of how to divide at least these 4. We both love the aesthetics of each. Any and all comments are most welcome.

nice collection and welcome on board

Th omega is a steel and gold model powered by the 30t2 calibre probably the mid late 50's. There are two Patek Gondolos and one Calatrava. if yes, probably from the 90's and this is just my rough guess

my condolence on the loss of your father. Your grand dad and your father had great taste in watches and I must say, amazing willpower for keeping the Pateks in mint condition. I think your brother and you can split the two Ellipse Pateks between yourselve...

I recommend you to check with a Patek AD if they should need a service. Oils may be dryed. All have his own charm, there are no bad share between you, and you could change later, if wished ;-)) Welcome here, Cheers, Patrickh

Thank you

Most grateful for all input. We can figure out the 3 new Pateks but the omega is a conundrum as are the other 4 Pateks.

Here's an out of the box idea...

So sad that your family has had this departure. Put all the watches in a collective for now, and just you and your brother can borrow them from the collective. This way you guys can exchange and borrow all of the watches and not just be limited. Eventuall...

Amazing suggestion

We will do as you suggest. We are both responsible people and love each other more than anything else. In our whole lives, there has never been any "daylight"among us. So I don't see any obstacle in the way of your suggestion. Just to take our mind off th...
