Please don't send it to Bienne, it'll come back with service parts and ruin the originality of the watch not to mention cost a fortune. Get a quality independent watchmaker to overhaul the watch, give the case a very light re-brush, and a new crystal, price will be under $650 for all that, and you'll have correctly preserved the watch.
Send me a PM if you like and I can put you on to a good bloke in NJ that does a lot of vintage Omega work.
