MORE FROM MIDO

Morning everyone Unboxing and detailing a very unique piece of vintage horology—a 1970s Mido Ocean Star featuring a rare elliptical/oval dial layout set inside a brushed tonneau monocoque case. This specific reference features a Portuguese day wheel ("QUI") means THU, confirming its original export route to Brazil. To give this slim 70s classic extra wrist presence and protection, I paired it with a custom-crafted green leather bund strap with heavy white saddle stitching. What are your thoughts on oval dials from this era? Let me know in the comments! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for more vintage watch breakdowns, strap making, and horology content! #Mido #MidoOceanStar #VintageWatch #WatchCollecting #Horology #WatchMaker #CustomWatchStrap #BundStrap #BrazilianWatch #WatchCommunity #ArbalexWatches #WatchesOfInstagram #VintageMido
