Hi again. I recieved this watch for a glass change (original glass was damaged).

So far i found the bears which mean this is Swiss silver the 0.900 marking and on the back-side right i found that there is a half-moon tied to a palace symbol.

Can somebody identify this?

Hi,
Mido was Swiss mid-range Swiss manufacturer. Cannot tell if still in business because widely copied since late 50, possibly sold.
You have identified Swiss mark, and ``crescent and crown`` is German mark. Take a look here:
