Well here we are, entering the spring of 2023, and I’m getting flashbacks of beautiful beachside summers, yacht parties, and just general high-times. That’s because we have here two of the hottest summer watches available for this year, the new Mido Decompression Worltimer in blue and black. They’ve been sitting in our office for three […]
Mido Ocean Star 20th Anniversary Inspired by Architecture Watch Review
It’s been 20 years since Mido released a five lines of watches recognizing major architectural monuments. For 2022, they’re releasing a series of limited edition watches to celebrate the anniversary. Earlier this year, they released the All Dial 20th Anniversary Limited Edition, which commemorated the Roman Colosseum. They followed that up with the Baroncelli Signature […]
Mido Commander Blue Shade Watch Review
To fans of automatic watch movements, Mido is one of the world’s most outstanding manufacturers. Founded in 1918, Mido’s name comes from the Spanish phrase “Yo mido,” which means “to move,” and move they do! In the 1940s, they released the world’s first central read chronograph, where the stopwatch hands are arranged at the center […]
Mido Ocean Star Decompression Timer 1961 Diver Watch Review
Mido watches have been famous for decades, particularly for their expertise in water resistance. In 1961, they released the original Ocean Star Skin Diver watch, also known as the Rainbow Diver. With its multicolored dive meter display, it became an instant hit, and the unique dial remains iconic to this day. The newer model has […]
Mido Ocean Star Diver 600 Watch Review
There comes a point in every watch enthusiast’s life, where the idea of an all-black watch becomes appealing. One day you wake up, and suddenly the watches you own don’t excite you the way they used to. You stare blankly into your watch box: eyes glazing over the rows of naked stainless steel. You think […]
Mido Multifort Patrimony Watch Review
Where I come from, across the pond in Great Britain, Mido is not a brand that carries much weight. Of all the Swatch Group brands, it seems to have the least presence, and quite markedly so. However, during my time spent working in the United States and Canada, I came to see the brand in […]
Mido Baroncelli Midnight Blue Gent M8600.4.15.1 Watch Review
When you’ve been as lucky to travel the world as I have, you realize just how region-specific certain brands and their level of success are. Where I’m from, in Manchester, England, Mido is basically non-existent. With just three official dealers in the UK (compared to 67 in the USA), the brand barely registers on the […]
Mido Baroncelli Heritage Review: A Tale of Three Watches
As part of the Swatch Group, Mido is a guarantee of Swiss quality and craftsmanship. Though it might not be a readily recognizable brand in the USA, it nevertheless has thrived in the Latin American market, where it has had a strong presence since the 80s, even among people not very much into the hobby […]
Mido Dorada M0096101603120 Watch Review
Let’s not deceive ourselves. Mido’s Dorada collection isn’t exactly an incarnation of originality and innovation. Unfortunately, the M0096101603120 is no exception. But, and it’s a big but, it would be wrong to say that this piece doesn’t provide excellent value for money. On the contrary, it’s the traditional, timeless watchmaking that has kept Mido in […]
