Thanks Alan. Mido is the best value for money IMHO among the Swiss makers. They consistently put higher grade movements into their watches then any of their competitors at the same price range. Although I like the dial, I would never buy an All Dial again because of the proprietary strap arrangement. Replacements are incredibly expensive and difficult to obtain. Although I must say that when I got through to the Mido person at SwatchUSA they were very gracious, added me to the "industry" buyers list because I have no AD within 500 miles, and facilitated my getting a replacement COSC certificate from Switzerland in lightening time.

Thanks for the heads up!

I really like the Rose Gold one and it doesn't seem to be outrageously priced as compared to some TV Brands. No proprietary strap either! Very nice!

Mido consistently puts out a superior product watch at surprisngly reasonable prices - particularly for a genuinely Swiss made watch (as Swiss any any of the Swatch group anyway).

These three Midos each have a different personality, but are all
SUPER nice ! The first one takes the classy award ! The thin
case is fantastic, and the subdials, including the moon phase
add to the look of the watch perfectly. That second Mido gets
an award for having a smooth diver look with some extra cool
hands ! A simple case and unique bezel on that one too !
With the last Mido, this one takes the orange and black award.
It's extremely sporty and those vertical lines on the dial were
a great idea imho ! I like the markers on that one also ! Each
one of these is a winner !

The first one in SS would be my choice.....BEAUTIUS!

I've got just one Mido. A oceanstar commander.nos.I'd like to find an all dial cosc diver.
