A Proper Tool Watch From An Uncommon Name

Mirexal was the private label brand for Migros, Switzerland's largest retail company, offering quality Swiss watches directly to the domestic market. This meant that to compete on home turf, the watches had to be good. This Superautomatic Diver from the 1970s is a prime example of the era's robust tool watch design, rated to 300 meters. With a substantial 40mm steel case, which was considered quite large for its time, and a bold, high-contrast dial, it has all the hallmarks of a serious vintage diver built with purpose.

Bold Seventies Character

This example stands out with its distinct and confident color scheme. The black dial serves as a clean base for the bright orange hands and the two-tone red and blue instrumentation at three o'clock. It is a purely functional design choice that gives the watch a unique visual identity. The long, thick lugs amplify its presence on the wrist, making it wear with a more modern feel than its vintage origins might suggest. It’s a piece that captures the adventurous spirit of 1970s watch design.

Untouched And Honest Condition

This watch presents in great cosmetic, untouched condition. The stainless steel case appears unpolished, retaining its original lines. Both the dial and crystal are free from any scratches or marks. The lume in the hands and across the hour markers has aged to an even and consistent yellow patina. All parts, including the crown and dial, are original to the watch. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

The Alternative Vintage Diver

This is the right choice for someone who wants the integrity and feel of a 1970s diver but prefers a path less traveled. It offers a strong wrist presence and a build quality intended to compete in the demanding Swiss market. The combination of its 40mm size, automatic movement, and vibrant dial makes it a versatile and engaging watch that stands apart from the more common names of the era.
