·Good evening to you all.
It was quite a while that I wanted to add a "cioccolatone" to my collection.
However, the usual IWC-Omega-Zenith-Longines were off budget.
Then, I came across this Milus.
The brand is almost unknown, even if it had quite a good reputaion and still produces medium-high level watches.
It is 18kt. gold, usual 32 mm. and I find it pleasant.
However, since my rule is to buy either watches with manufacture movements or with a certain regard historically or technically, here's the clue: Felsa 692 Bidynator, i.e. the first automatic with bi-directional rotor (from the mid-40s). In another forum, a writer called this movement "hissing", because whan you move it it produces that sound.
I hope you will find it pleasant as well.
