Mixis chronograph mystery

Eve · Jan 6, 2023

Yesterday, while having a few too many beers 🤦 i traded an old Omega for this vintage chronograph ☕
I was smitten by the blue hands and relatively well preserved dial. Also the chronograph is working perfectly and the pusher action is silky smooth.
The midcase is chrome plated, which indicates it was probably an affordable watch back in the days. I tried to do some searches on the net, but dont find any information on this company.
Wanted to ask if any of the members maybe familiar with the brand?
Thank you!

Not familiar with the brand, but the movement resembles a Landeron 48, but the minute counter jumper is different on this one. Not sure if that's a different caliber, or a replacement for a missing part...

Landeron 48. Red arrow indicates correct date jumper.

Well whatever it is, the oval pushers indicate a 40’s chronograph. Overall the watch is in great shape and beautiful. Are these fixed bars or spring bars? Enjoy. I have an Ardath that I adore for the same reasons you mentioned….

Unfortunatelly those are fixed bars.
Nice looking watch 👍

Btw the size is very wearable at 34mm.

A nato of your choice is the answer. Better than that black strap.

Cool watch, I have a soft spot for these random 40s/50s chronographs too. Sorry can't help with the brand either.

There is no information on Mikrolisk pertaining to the name Mixis.

The only one simmilar watch i could find is this one:

However my one is neither column wheel, nor flyback, nor 32mm. So could either be a completely different watch or false information.

I appreciate the effort 👍 thanks!
