@jpthewatchmaker: Bringing this 1940s Omega back to life… ⌚️⚙️ Every vintage timepiece brings new challenges and hidden stories! #Watchmaker #WatchRepair #Behindthescenes #Horology #VintageWatch #Mechanical #Michigan
Hello,
My great-great-grandmother owned an antique Omega watch, and since it has been dated to the 1930s, we were warned that it may contain radium in the dial paint.
My mother took the watch to be evaluated for repair, but the cost was quite high and the service was not carried out.
I would like to know whether, under these circumstances, there is any health risk simply from owning or handling the watch.
I have read about the history of the Radium Girls and, to be honest, it made me quite anxious.
Thank you in advance for your attention.
