    I just found this thread and was pretty excited to find people talking Vintage Mido!
    I know its kinda old but maybe someone's still looking...
    I'd like to share some pics of my Ocean Star that I picked up about a year ago at a pawn shop here in Eugene Oregon.
    $50 purchase IMG_3941.JPG + $200 at the watchmaker. I'm probably in it for what its worth but I love it.

    That's a rare dial. Never saw a black one, ever.

    Sorry for the weird angle, there are too many reflections otherwise. 437B8930-90E5-4B23-B210-177715C604DD.jpeg

    One I had up for sale a while back, thankfully zero interest and now happy to hold on to it for a long time :)

    Already am addicted.

    That's a real beauty. I wonder how many of those were actually sold?

    Same story. I sold a 1950s Mido Multifort SuperAutomatc at auction last month for under $100. I now seriously have sellers remorse.
