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!
