BTW, the Patek Philippe Aquanaut is the homage, not the other way around. Mido produced that TV shaped case in the 70s. Patek "borrowed" it for the Aquanaut in 1997.

Doesn’t matter, the highly desirable giant (Patek) that everyone knows will be considered the OG and the one which is being copied. I would never want this as it clearly is trying to come up off the Patek hype. Makes for an awkward conversation if someone thinks you have an Aquanaut 😅

Lol I literally asked for this watch to be reviewed about 6 days after watching Teddy's video with the CEO of Mido. And here it is. Teddy.... You never disappoint Great watch. Can't wait to get one

Purchased the Blue dial with blue rubber strap from Teddy as a gift for my son. This is my fourth watch purchased and I am never disappointed with the quality of customer service by Teddy's team. Jon is an exceptional advisor who understands this profession and is truly a delight to work with on a purchase. Thanks Teddy! Dr. Bob

A standing ovation for Mido!!! That's all I have to say.

Well done Mido, sticking to what they do best. I'm a big fan of TV style casing, very popular in the early 1970s. That date is also brilliant. A very appealing and well thought out piece.

My (Korean) wife was watching a Korean drama, and the main character was donning this beauty (with the orange strap). Had to find out more about it. Thanks for the in-depth look!

Signed up for the blue dial like an hour after this video was uploaded because it sold so fast. was surprised to actually get a call back from Will with teddys website. first time I ever actually got called back for a watch. these are the memories we pass down. Very grateful to Will for giving me that call back.

Mido punches well above it's weigh. I love the bottle green variant of this watch. They are worth double what they are asking for in my humble opinion .

Good to see Mido getting some love on KZread. A vastly underrated watch company who makes some very quality products. i do kinda wish they didn't go full Turdor (ala black bay) & lump too much into the Multifort namesake. I like the look of this watch. Very sharp & different enough to not be overtly an homage.

Really nice watch...love a cushion style and these dimensions are almost spot on 😊

This is a great looking watch! Love the accuracy as a bonus and the case is great. And the big date is very helpful as you age and your eyes start to go. Standard ETA/Sellita date windows are teeny!

Very similar to the GO seventies panorama date. I love this design looks awesome. Thank you

The bracelet looks identical to the Sinn 556 apart from the clasp which I really like, honestly its a beautiful piece at that price, head to head against the conquest!

Nice watch . The case shape is truly nice, the dial is perfect with this big date . Very good balance in the design of this watch. In addition the ETA caliber is a proof of quality. Thank ou for this great video.

I love the colour orange and finding a watch that features orange in some way is very difficult. This Mido with the orange rubber strap looks excellent.

This is definitely going on my shortlist. Love the big date.

Looks really nice, and the big date function is a plus.

Very nice watch to me - mainly bc I have the most similar Vintage Mido model to this. My mid 70s Mido Commander 8016 is definitely this things main inspiration. It’s a much more elegant/simplistic nicer version of this🤷🏽‍♂️

I have the MIDO GMT and I'm very impressed with it. Good quality and well priced

Thank you Teddy for this Video. I know that people in the comments are gonna talk about the elephant in the room (Patek vibes of the watch), but the big date is what got me so interested with this watch. Glashutte pano date and Zenith big date pilot have that two disc date that makes the complication of the watch more interesting. I just have to recup from my current watch purchases (moonswatch easier to get retail).

Another great and informative video!!! You just sold me on my first Mido. Just ordered the green dial on bracelet. Looking forward to so quality wrist time!!!

Looks so good, very appealing for this price. Really like the date window at 12 oclock.

Love ‘em! MIDO is not my “go-to” type of watch but I’m being proven wrong more and more, including with this one. The black “fumée” dial with the orange strap looks great for the Summer 😎👍🏼 Thanks for sharing!

Watch is nice. Definitely digging cushion case style and the bracelet. The lack of micro adjustments is a ding but but not a deal breaker

This is a great looking watch! I will definitely add it to my collection one day. I hope they release more color ways 🤞 I think from these three color ways, the green is my favorite. (Technically blue, but I have too many blue watches already and I like to have diversity)

Mido is very underrated. Their oceanstars are my go-to recommendation for a 1K usd diver.

I love my Mido Captain 200m, Diver 600m, and GMT watches. All are a fantastic value.

Very informative and thorough review Teddy! Mido watches are a fantastic value. Would be nice if the Swatch group offered more bracelets WITHOUT polished center links in the future.

That’s a beautiful watch. I’m glad you introduced this brand to me!

Good lug-to-lug size 👍 Also, I wish if Longines had introduced this brushed bezel on the Conquests. I loved my Conquests (I had two of them) but I was never able to make peace with the polished bezels turning into a scratch magnet slowly, day by day, no matter how careful I handled them. A brushed bezel tolerates/wears small scratches a lot better I think. Full polished bezels are so 90s, early 2000s anyway...

I'm having serious doubts about the new conquest 2023 just because of how polished it is. I love everything about it... except the extreme polishing; feel like it's gonna catch scratches for merely existing.

My Mido Multifort with Geneva Stripe dial is a COSC 80 hr Si balance spring with Elonflex mainspring dress watch with instant day date change at midnight and is by far the best value in my ever expanding watch collection. The day is even in German and English. Mido and Hamilton are excellent entry Swiss watches along with CW.

This watch is a 9/10 for me. Absolutely gorgeous!

Love this watch! Definitely gonna pick one up in the future. Love the big date, very Glasshute Original

This watch is really speaking to me. I may pull the trigger soon. Thanks for the review Teddy!.

Thanks for putting this watch on my radar. Really cool piece.

Great video, thank you. It really looks the watch has no crystal in it. Date is a pain in the neck but, as you said, if must put one at least make it eye candy. I got the green on bracelet, super happy with it.

Really nice review. Watch looked awesome on my wrist. Had a chance to try it on in Milan airport. Duty-free price was quite good, but I was in a rush to catch a plane, so I did not pull the trigger. I’ve been thinking about it ever since that day!

Purchased a TV Big Date about a month ago. Fantastic watch. I was first inclined to the dark dial with the orange strap. But trying it on, the steel bracelet was much more convincing in view of looks and wearing comfort, so I went for the steel bracelet in with the blue dial. It wears great even on my relatively small wrist. The precision is also great, advances about 4-5 seconds per week, that is significantly less than 1 second per day! Where do you get such a good looking, well finished watch with Big Date complication, 100 m water resistance and screw down crown with 80 hours power reserve and an accuracy of better 1 second per day reserve for 1’100$?

How did you feel about the dial color? I just my blue dial on steel bracelet and the color is quite a bit different than what I was expecting. The photos on the Mido website are borderline false advertising in my opinion. There is no sunburst effect or color transition from blue to black at all. Teddy's video did at least accurately show the consistent single color although I feel the one in the video was several shades brighter than the one I received. I just wasn't expecting the blue to be dark. Luckily Teddy has a really good return policy and I haven't worn it outside or adjusted the bracelet yet.

@olivergroning6421

​@@mh98177 In my opinion there is a lot going on with the dial depending on the lighting. In diffuse lighting the dial (blue in my case) is rather dark and the blue to black gradation is not prominent. This changes a lot in grazing point lighting (e.g. in the sun or a single lamp, particularly from the top or bottom). Then the blue center becomes very pronounced and the gradation to the black rim accordingly to. It gives an iridescent effect on the blue color too. In reflection the dial gets really bright, reflective. As I tried bought it in a shop and could try it out, I was well aware of what the dial ‘is up to’ and I am not disappointed, because it is so different in different lightings and varies a lot. But looking at the pictures, which are usually taken with strong point-like lights, the dial looks certainly different than in diffuse lighting, which is the common thing when you wear it. So it is correct that you do not get the 'picture' dial color all the time, but you get it and the liveliness of the dial is a plus for me. I would suggest you play around with the watch in different conditions. Turn it round under sun light, I think it is spectacular.

My absolute favourite of theirs is their Multifort Vertigo. I only wish it had a date window, there's more than enough space for it...

I have this on my list, love the look.

As a young man, who can't at the moment but will eventually buy a Patek Philippe, this is an exceptional piece to get.

Also it's worth noting that not everyone wants to walk around with the price of a high end car on their wrist. At this price point the Mido makes for a great daily wearer.

I didnt like the design at first, but now that I look at it more and over again. I'm starting to like it

Fr mido is so underrated man. I have a multifort leather strap and it feels so classy yet sporty, I really hope they keep going up cause they deserve it.

Always entertaining to see the verbal gymnastics that Teddy goes through instead of just saying "Genta homage".

by far the best watch channel in the game!!🔥🤘🏼😘

I really like this watch, considering dropping the PRX to fund one. Just bothered no black rubber strap option!

I would buy on the bracelet and get a spare strap at the same time. Really nice looking watch. I thinknit has good value.

Just looking at this watch the other day. It's a really nice looking and finished watch for the money. I Really want to add a square shaped watch to the collection so this might be it.

I agree, a good watch for $1,000 looks good with the metal bracelet but looks less expensive with the rubber strap !

Even I´d prefer the big date at 6 because the upper sides looks a bit busy, I love how it looks this Mido. Greetings from Spain, Teddy!

This is a very premium looking watch.

Square. Date at twelve. Dial color. Eta movement. Glass back. Below $1500. A new watch on my list.

One remark. Hamilton's H10 is also 25 jewels PM80 so Hamilton also uses C07.651 along Certina and Mido.

First saw these on your site a few days ago and have been waiting for this video since 😁

I always love how these daring designs make it easier for actual watch enthusiasts to spot snobs lol. Glad to see so many people know that MIDO can essentially do whatever they want with the TV style, because the orange rubber strap one is gorgeous. In case anyone is wondering, no, the caliber they're using is not the "synthethic" escapement one present on the PRX (that would be the C07.1**), they are using the regular jeweled escapement caliber (C07.6**) which is also used a lot by Rado (although they tend to use the older version). I'm actually surprised at the price, if I see the orange one at a boutique it's a no brainer for me. Nicely done MIDO.

Love it. I think is a great Watch for the price. I will try to get the Orange strap one.

Was about to buy it next 2 weeks)))) and here we have

Very nice! The metal bracelet is very attractive with the watch.

This and their true GMT released earlier in the year are some exciting offerings, very tempting.

Looks refreshing! would love to have one on black with an orange rubber on it. But, it would be nicer if it had applied indexes.

Chocolate dial could be fun with that orange strap.

Been waiting for this one !!!

Hi Teddy: this is a great looking watch. It looks like my Briel milano (though my Briel is a chronograph) which is quartz with 200 meters of water resistance.

I love very much this collection 👍💪👏😍😍😍😍

Very nice watch! Added to my watch list...

What a cool watch. Mido is a true sleeper brand these days.

Replace the bullet points hours for line marks then im all in. i love the green

I personally love this watch. I’m more drawn to no date or 6 o’clock date feature watches for the symmetry. They nailed the date on this dial and the watch looks 10 times it’s price tag.

Looks great! I really admire Mido for their offerings lately. How about a lume? Is it one of its features?

This is a beautiful watch for a great price and awesome power reserve. I need to find a dealer in the area with this so I can try it on.

Are you having any problems with the date changing? I've heard it's a problem with some of them.

I bought this watch at Geneva Airport yesterday. It was impulse buy and I love it already. I avoided the orange strap version because it looked too much like a G-Shock from a distance and a Patek closer up. I went for the blue rubber strap model I'm not a great fan of date Windows but in this case it absolutely makes the watch. I got this Mido for under Fr.1000 Swiss. Absolute bargain. Thank you to Hour Passion at Geneva airport for their service and agreeing to post the WatchBox to my home, so I didn't have to carry it with me on the plane. Snap one of these up if you can it is a great everyday sports watch

Very nice. Still in doubt with the classic Commander Big Date 🤔

This one actually remind be of glashutte original...really nice 👍

I dig the fancy date wheels too. Bought mine 3 weeks ago, but it start acting up yesterday when the date stuck at 11. Managed to set it manually, although at some points during the manual adjustment, the date discs "refused" to cooperate (spin). Honestly I am worried now.

I like it. I don’t tend towards anything but round cases. But somehow this looks like it could be a do-everything watch for a shopper like myself with limited budget. The bracelet is plenty nice enough to wear with suits, yet it looks fantastic on a rubber strap. I’m going to try it on.

Amazing watch 🥰😍

Just ordered the TV Big Date Limited Edition the second I saw it in my in box. The look may not mean much to the younger generation but I thought the retro analog TV case with the old analog video test card dial is so unique and playful.

i like my mido multifort - especially for the discontinued $300 i got it for it's really cool
