Classic vintage Mido piece for those who are interested. As those know, this is a smaller men's watch, appropriate for the era (1950s). It also is in very good to excellent condition, keeps very good time, and would be a great piece for someone starting a vintage collection or could be a very nice child's or woman's watch (depending upon their preference). The A Schild movement is one of their work horses, and likely accounts for the excellent performance of this piece. Manufacturer: Mido Model: Multifort Powerwind, dates to mid-1950s Case: 31 mm wide, stainless steel case with polished and drilled 16mm lugs and screw-down, decagonal case back. Some scratches on the case back but the case is in otherwise excellent condition for a 70 year old watch. The 4 digit number between the lugs corresponds to the last 4 digits of the serial number. Movement: A. Schild 917P automatic, 17 jewels, auto winding Dial: Champagne coloured dial, gold embossed markers, full seconds track, in excellent condition; original hands with remnants of lume Complication: Time only Crown: original Mido signed.

Just came upon this lovely Mido, stunning and personally I often wear pieces of this diameter on my 7 1/2" wrist quite happily. G.L.W.S.
Uncommon dial variation on a very nice watch. I'm a Mido fan, and if I didn't have more than a few already... GLWTS!
And it's off to France. Thanks to OF for the space, and our wonderful mods and members for the support
