About the Item

FACTORY / HOUSE: Mido Watch Company STYLE / REFERENCE: Multifort / Reference 230 METAL / MATERIAL: Stainless Steel CIRCA / YEAR: 1940's DIMENSIONS / SIZE: Length 39mm X Diameter 33mm MOVEMENT / CALIBER: Manual Winding / 17 Jewels / Caliber DIAL / HANDS: Original Patinated Copper Finish with Arabic Numerals / Original Blued Steel "Wine" Baton Hands ATTACHMENT / BRACELET: Leather, 16mm / Regular Length WARRANTY: 18 months on the movement LIFETIME SERVICE COMMITMENT This is one of only one or two examples of this model that we have ever seen. The early design of the "bumper" style automatic is in excellent running condition. Our finest watchmaker has just done a factory quality service on it. The copper finished dial is beautifully patinated and we never see "Wine Blued" hands like these. The wine color happens when hands are "Blued" at about 630 degrees Fahrenheit and hands turn deep blue at about 650 degrees Fahrenheit. This really is a wonderful watch that is also the perfect unisex size as well.
