The reviews on youtube/ elsewhere online will do this justice, but a short version is:- mature, sleek & understated look- quality build & feels well made- secondary adjustment button on clasp to account for size change in wrist due to temperature (without a tool/key) is now a must-have feature for me- great hand movement (automatic)- day & date- no loss of time (+\- 1 second per day max)I look forward to putting it on & sad to take it off.£750 inc transport is a bargain, and i wouldn’t have been disappointed if I’d paid £1,300. It is comparable with a friend’s Tag Heur at that price.Nice box, quick transport fromamericaI hope to have this for 10+years

Beautiful watch with a good movement (day date complication for under £1000 is good value imho), the bezel is 60 click which I personally like, and the Lume is turquoise instead of green which is a nice change, only problem I had is that the watch is rather square looking because of the lugs and thin bezel, this is of course a personal preference though.For the money I think mido are an underrated brand.

worth the price

I have been looking for a high quality dive watch at the $800 or less range for a while now. I had been considering Tissot and Hamilton but then I found the Mido Ocean Star and I am very impressed.The CaseThis is the stainless steel model very well done. It is predominantly brushed with the beveled edges and bezel being polished. It has a very nice weight on your arm, but if you are looking for light weight, this model is offered in titanium as well. The crown is screw down, thus the 660ft/200m depth rating, Once the crown is properly screwed in after adjustment, the shoulders on the crown protectors hide any edges making wearing more comfortable. The bezel rotates smoothly with a gentle click at each detent position. The only thing that could be considered a drawback is the fact that there is no exhibition case back; you cannot see the movement or winding rotor. The case back is the etched with the Ocean Star logo, a stylized starfish in water. It should be remembered that the Ocean Star is a true diver watch and an exhibition case back reduces the maximum depth rating. The crystal is sapphire and is anti-reflective coated on both sides in a similar fashion as Omega or Tag. It doesn't sound like much but it really makes a difference in how the watch appears and reads.The BandThe band is quite comfortable. The individual link fit is tight and smooth given this watches price point. It's not at the level of a Rolex band, but it is much, much better than some other watches at the same price point that I've experienced. The Mido dive extension is particularly good. Mido has a ratcheting dive extension mechanism built within the clasp. You can essentially fine tune the fit at any time with this feature.The MovementI was skeptical about the Caliber 80 movement at first, not because of quality issues (this movement keeps very good time) but because of the movement of the second hand. The Caliber 80 movement is the same as the Tissot Powermatic 80. The 80 refers to amount of reserve power hours the movement keeps. The sacrifice for this 3 day power reserve is that the VBH, or vibrations per hour is much lower than the base model 2824 movement on which the Caliber 80 is based. This means that the hand second hand does not move around the dial as smoothly as other higher VBH movements. That being said, I now love this movement. I can take it off on Friday, leave it over the weekend, and come back to a running watch on Monday.The hands are simple and elegant, but the second hand tip marked in red is a detail I really enjoy. The lume on the hands and hour indices is bright and easy to identify. The dial is matte black and pairs very well with the double anti-reflective coating of the crystal to make the watch easy to read at a glance.Final WordsIn all honesty I will probably never dive with this watch. I will swim or surf with it every now and then but really I bought it because I've always wanted a simple day/date automatic diver that is robust enough to swim with but elegant enough to wear as a dress watch. This Mido piece ticks all the boxes I was looking for and more. I've worn it almost every day since I got it. It's on track to being one of the watches I wear the most.UPDATEAs of May 1st 2017 this watch has been running strong and keeping time very well. I've had no problems with this watch at all and I've been wearing it almost every day. My only, very slight issue is that the clasps does not snap closed as easily as it once did. I would still give this watch 5 stars.
