Object description

Case and Material Construction

The watch features a cushion-shaped case described by the auction house as a "case in stainless steel" (in German, "Gehäuse aus Edelstahl"). The circular bezel framing the dial displays a brushed front surface, and the case measures 36 mm across excluding the crown, cataloged as "diameter without crown: 36 mm".

The crystal is recorded in the listing as "Acrylic glass" (in German, "Plexiglas"). Visually, the watch is fitted with a dark brown alligator-embossed leather strap fastened by a pin buckle.

Dial Configuration and Complications

The timepiece features a light dial bearing the model identification "Mido Multi Star datoday". Direct visual observation confirms dial text reading "Mido", "MULTI STAR datoday", and "T-SWISS MADE-T" at 6 o'clock, alongside applied hour indices.

The catalog lists the complications as "Date & Day" (in German, "Datum, Wochentag"). In the listing imagery, the aperture at 3 o'clock displays the German day-date combination "FRE 9".

The internal mechanism is reported in the listing as an "Automatic movement" (in German, "Automatikwerk"). Neither the movement caliber nor the internal components are described or illustrated in the auction record.

The seller catalog provides an overall condition rating of "good condition" ("guter Zustand"). The listing does not record a reference number, serial number, or production date.

  • “Automatic movement”
