Mudu Mens Vintage Mechanical Hand Winding Gold Plated Swiss Wristwatch Serviced
Item History & Price
This swiss made vintage watch is is fantastic condition with a mint condition dial and one of the best condition cases I have seen from this period. The dial is a silver sunburst with gold painted hour markers which are recessed groves in the dial itself. The case is gold plated and 34mm in diameter with a lug to lug of 41.5mm, a height of just 7.5mm including the domes acrylic crystal and 18mm lug width. The gold plating is almost immaculate except for one are on the top left lug whic...h is visible in the photographs. The watch was serviced in February of this year and is running well.
For those that are not aware Mudu is an interesting brand with an unusual history. After World war 2 heavy duties were applied to a wide range of products brought into the UK including swiss watches. An unnamed but well known swiss watch company started to produce unique designs under the Mudu brand name. Workers from this brand allegedly made these watches out of hours for extra money. The watches were then smuggled to the UK and sold directly from the docks or in pubs directly to consumers with no retail presence at all. The quality of the watches is highly regarded with some people believing that it was Blancpain who were behind the venture.
I will send the watch out second class signed for in the UK and international tracked for further afield. Please feel free to message if you have any questions.
