Product Information

Read more about the condition New with tags: A brand-new, unused, unworn and undamaged item in the original packaging (such as the original box or bag) and/or with the original tags attached. From a purely color perspective, the hints of warm metal amidst the otherwise black and cold steel adds some nice texture, disrupting the otherwise neutral tones. Some models even come with a chronometer certificate from COSC (the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute). It’s all very well done, and the choice of using a day/date movement instead of just a date movement was the right choice for this watch. This sporty Swiss watch is water resistant up to 20 bar (200 m/656 ft), with the case shape providing extra protection for the screw down crown.

I’m sure someone will gripe that they can’t read their watch while holding it directly under a light or that it projects a halo on the dial.Apart from creating unique designs, Mido also worked hard to brand its watches to give them a distinct appeal. So, I tried the Ocean Star on some 22mm black leather straps, which quickly became my preferred method of wearing the watch. If you like the Datoday's retro charm but prefer modern technology, you should take a closer look at the Commander collection. Some watches want to be the star of the show, which has its time and place, but the watches you/I end up wanting to wear the most blend in and support their surroundings. You will be notified in good time in writing about the payment failure and when the retries will be scheduled so you’ll have enough time to make sure that you have sufficient funds on your card.

Another surprising feature is the clasp, which is a large diver type with two sets of push buttons on it. But as long as the lugs aren’t too long, I can get used to bigger sizes as well, just like on my Omega Speedmaster and Seiko SPB317. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. In 1944, they released the monocoque Ocean Star that used the cork Aquadura gasket system (that’s right cork) to create a water-resistant watch. Will someone explain why this powermatic 80 movement, which has been lauded in past reviews and is supposedly an evolution in the advancement of the technology, is only used in the less expensive watch brands of the swatch empire, or am I missing something here?The plain cutout for the date window at 3 o’clock could’ve been executed a little better, but at least it doesn’t try to grab your attention. What I do really like about this Ocean Star Tribute is its gradient blue dial and the matching bezel insert. I’d describe the color as a matte milky blue, and yes, there’s a gradient but not in an annoying way. If we are unable to take the outstanding amount on the third instalment, we will follow the same procedure as listed above with two (2) retries and thereafter, if payment is not successful, we may invoice you the remaining amount or follow our debt collection procedures. Some people (especially those coming from owning a large variety of Japanese automatic dive watches) like this calendar feature, while others don’t.

This should be a reliable automatic movement, and it offers a comfortable power reserve of 80 hours. The text on the dial has been kept plain and simple, which once again goes well with the overall style of the Ocean Star Tribute. If your card details change between your initial purchase and final payment, you agree to notify Klarna of your updated card information. While it pegs the bling meter to the max, the all-polished multi-link bracelet looks more inspired by a 1970’s disco ball than the “architecture” that Mido claims it takes inspiration from.On the back of the sporty Swiss watch - fitted with the Caliber 80 automatic movement , which offers a power reserve of up to 80 hours - MIDO has engraved the time-zone indications. After every few years, Mido launched new watches, redefining the making of these timepieces, and crafting them in sync with the décor of the era. On a continuous effort to stay at the forefront of watchmaking expertise, Mido introduced on the development of its mechanical movements, the revolutionary Nivachron™ balance-spring. This is the kind of watch you saw on a hairy, wet wrist in watch ads of the era and I think Mido brought a great package here that works with the case to harken back to those days. I mean, there was even a NY Times article on the topic that I had the honor of being quoted in (humble brag).

MIDO has drawn on its applications in the aerospace and medical fields to create lightweight, hypoallergenic and extremely robust watches that are supremely comfortable to wear. If we were unable to withdraw funds after the two (2) retries, the missed payment will be rolled over to the second instalment. A while back ( after reading Mike Razak’s review on the Ocean Star Captain Titanium) I bought a Rose Gold Ocean Star Captain and fell in love with its simplicity and elegance. Friend we’d recommend it to first: Anyone who loves the idea of well-finished titanium watch with bracelet but can’t afford the many more expensive options.

Both the hands and markers carry a decent amount of luminous material, so you can also read the time in darker conditions. It was a few years ago that I first noticed the Ocean Star watch in titanium when meeting with the brand.

Some overall dial and bezel marker design issues were improved in the larger and more expensive Mido Ocean Star 600 Water.
