About this deal

Limited to just 999 units, the Mido Ocean Star GMT Limited Edition For Hodinkee uses a steel case that is 40. We accept payments made by major debit/credit cards - Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard, American Express, Solo, JCB. They didn’t even seem to appreciate that it was such a neat product within the larger Ocean Star collection. Swatch Group’s Mido brand has been a horological underdog for a while now, and I think the brand deserves a lot more attention from the enthusiast community. Since inception, Mido has combined aesthetics and functionality to offer a luxurious experience to their audiences.

The Mido Ocean Star Tribute is powered by the Mido Caliber 80, Mido’s branded version of the swatch free-sprung balance that makes its rounds in the swatch brands. The second hand is a more standard design with a thin stick arm leading to a slender pointer tip that is painted orange and filled with lume. Additionally, the movement in the Ocean Star is Elaboré-grade with a NIVAFLEX NM mainspring, ELINCHRON II balance-spring and it has been adjusted in three positions. I guess it’s a good thing that the watch comes with both a stainless steel mesh bracelet and a Tropic-style blue rubber strap. The bracelet is quite nicely made and finished, with medium-coarse brushing on all top surfaces and a surprisingly nice polished bevel along its edge.

The metal’s many technical properties are complemented by its sleek, extremely pleasing aesthetics, enabling a wide range of uses. If you like the Datoday's retro charm but prefer modern technology, you should take a closer look at the Commander collection. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.

Around the back, the Ocean Star GMT Limited Edition For Hodinkee has a steel caseback with a special engraving showing the specific number of the 999-piece edition. By no means is it the only Ocean Star worth having, but watch collectors seeking good value from major brands should take a hard look. It has the standard push button mechanism to open and then a smaller push button set to extend the bracelet either for diving or to give yourself an extra few mm at the end of a sweaty day. My main issue with the calendar window is the large white opening (though it would have been nicer on color-matching discs), and the fact that it caused the dial designer to opt for semi-skeletonized hands (the Ocean Star Diver 600 has solid hands).uk are 100% genuine, authentic and brand new with their original serial numbers intact(where applicable). You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The movements are tested in a strict environment to check how far they can withstand the temperatures, water and magnetic conditions. It’s your standard green Superluminova, and for the life of me, I can’t understand why something advertised as SUPER can be so sub-par. They also sealed the designs with the crown-sealing technology, which enabled these pieces to withstand all conditions.

From above, the mid-case has subtle lines with flowing contoured lugs that are nice and thick and crown-guards on the right.It’s a great entry into the current vintage diver craze but with some modern touches that make it the vintage diver you always wanted or wish you could have had back in the day. The bezel action is very snappy, but it could benefit from a better grip because it’s quite slippery. With the Mido Ocean Star GMT Limited Edition For Hodinkee, the classic Mido mix of elegance and sporty styling is met with versatile proportions and a movement designed to jump from one time zone to the next.
