While I don’t own one, I will say that it wears smaller than the measurements would suggest because of its cushion case.Quote:

My 15 yr old Sub! Rarely wear especially last 10 year, but seems like beyonders like Rolex..:nut:
The trend now is going back to smaller watch, wouldn't mind to wear it. :burnout:
Probably the only investment I have that the Value been go up near 3 times ... :angel:
I regret not pulling the trigger on a Daytona 5 years ago. Prices just keep going up.Quote:

I’m late on posting, but I did wear this last night and have worn it this morning while camping.
Not a very common sight, but it’s a Mido Multifort Powerwind circa 1958. 17 jewels. Started pulling my older pieces out from long term storage and testing them out. I’ve recent plenty of compliments on this. Question to watch gurus.. I’ve had a few people comment about the patina/wear on the face - both positive and negative. Mechanically, it’s in good order... but I have mixed feelings on whether to repair the face or leave it as is to preserve it for posterity’s sake. Let’s see how good you look when you’re over 60 years old lol
Thoughts?

Awesome piece! I'm no guru or expert, but IMO it would probably cost more to restore the dial than the monetary value of the watch, so I'd only do it if you would enjoy the watch more. But otherwise keep it as is because it certainly has a lot of character!Quote:

I’m finally starting to dig into my collection.
I’ve leave it, it’s unique.
I took a shot this morning and forgot to post it:

I love the Ocean Star! Mido really is an incredible watch level for the value...I have the 600 version of this watch myself.Quote:

I’m glad to see there are a few Mido fans on here! I’ve got a small collection of older Midos and have contemplated getting into the newer models. What are your thoughts on the quality for the money on the newer models? I’ll remember to post more of them when time permits.
I'll kick off the friday
