Multifort TV Big Date Watch M0495261108100

The Watch

Mido has cemented its status in the world of watchmaking through creations that showcase its remarkable expertise. Its models stand out for their robustness, technical innovation, and performance. The iconic Multifort collection was born in 1934, bringing together unique timepieces with sharp aesthetics and exceptional quality. Today, Mido unveils this Multifort TV Big Date M0495261108100 - a true reflection of that enduring spirit. It features a cushion-shaped case crafted in stainless steel, measuring 40 × 39.2 mm with a thickness of 11.50 mm and a weight of 155 g. With its brushed finish and retro aesthetic, it's the perfect match for men who value authenticity. The dial is protected by an anti-reflective sapphire crystal that guards against everyday shocks and ensures perfect legibility. A screw-down crown at 3 o'clock handles all central adjustments. Finally, the screwed, transparent caseback lets you admire the movement and guarantees 10 ATM water resistance.

The Dial

The dial perfectly underscores the refined look of this model. In total harmony with the case shape, it is dressed in a grey tone and makes its mark with smoked and brushed finishes. Its minimalist style delivers effortless time-reading. The hour and minute hands are of the baton type, coated with a luminescent treatment - as are the indices, which alternate between round and baton shapes - ensuring legibility even in low-light conditions. The seconds hand joins them to complete the display. A minute track marked with Arabic numerals at 15-minute intervals runs along the perimeter for added precision. The big date window with a black background at 12 o'clock keeps you on top of the date every day. Finally, Mido signs its name at 12 o'clock and recalls the collection name at 6 o'clock.

The Movement

This magnificent watch is powered by an automatic movement manufactured in-house by Mido. Specifically, it features the highly capable and supremely precise Caliber 80 Nivachron, equipped with the revolutionary Nivachron balance spring. It smoothly drives the hands and big date window for reliable analog display. This latest-generation mechanism delivers a power reserve of up to 80 hours. It is built on an ETA C07.651 base and fitted with 25 jewels.

The Strap

The grey stainless steel bracelet paired with this timepiece perfectly completes its classic look. Composed of multiple rows of links, it is enhanced by polished and brushed finishes that give the model a distinctive, refined appearance on the wrist. Its width is 22 mm and it fastens with a silver-toned deployment clasp.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance of 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - making it a truly water-ready companion. From puddles to pools, this timepiece handles splashes without complaint. Showers, baths, and active swimming? No problem. That said, our Ocarat watch experts want to be clear: while water-resistant, this model is not suited for diving (recreational or professional) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers clear of any operation while submerged.
