Do you already own one? If so, what was your overall experience? Let us know in the comment section down below 👇😊
Just walked into the duty free shop in Seoul. Been looking for a Patek Phillip that certain shape. Saw the multofort with the green face and metal band and bought it instantly. Mido is a lesser known brand outside of Switzerland but the quality is there.
Glad you did this deal, because what you get for this money is amazing. I have heard the comparison of Patek Design and this one many times, but only few know that the Mido TV Desing was created 1973 few years before the Nautilus...
First time.coming across this channel. Great review. You speak so eloquently. Subscribed 🙌
Hello :) Thanky you very much for tuning in & welcome on board 🙏
Great timepieces,thanks ❤️🏴👍
Just bought one, fantastic! By the way, thanks for this excellent review! Great voice!
Dear Francis, good choice! Thank you for the feedback, was a pleasure to do a hands on review on this one. So far we only received great feedbacks from our customers - you won`t regret it ;-)
My dad owns a Baroncelli, is really a nice piece, Mido is super reliable brand
My 1973 version of the Mido TV shape watch is on its way. I am so excited!
You will love it for sure, received a lot of positive feedbacks until now 🙏
You will love it, I just saw one in the display case at an airport and bought it instantly. Cheers👍
Subscribed! The narrator’s voice is relaxing and easy to understand. Please show the date change in a later video.
Hey Richard! Welcome on board :)
Thank you for your feedback - we will for sure go more in depth regarding the functions in the upcoming videos.
Patek Philippe Nautilus in a very cheap price, I bought it. I think a brand with such an old history this price is very low, so I recommend no one to miss this style and buy it soon
This came out before the nautilus...
Can we buy rubber strap separately? Got mine in steel bracelet. A rubber strap alternative would be great
Yes, it is possible for CHF 90.- you can purchase one :)
Date wheel suddenly stucked on date of 27th..bought only for 5 months and the defects as commented by many finally happened to the watch..so disappointed. Now under warranty service and has not been returned for almost 2 months😢
Hi Leon, sorry to hear about that. Yes, unfortunately this has been an issue for the first series of this model. What Mido told us is, they have updated the mechanic of the date function for future series. Let me know if we can help in any way 🙏
Great video! I'm awaiting my tv big date and I was wondering if the issues with the date wheels misbehaving have been addressed by factory? Any updates would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Hi there, we have had the news that MIDO indeed has recognized this issue - even though it is a very very small possibility that this could happen compared to the amount of pieces sold. In this regard, if this issue should occure you can at any time bring back the watch & they will replace some parts neessary for the date window to work perfectly :)
@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches thank you for your reply, I will wait for the delivery and test it out at the AD in Athens greece and hope for the best. I will send you a reply in the near future a report on the progress.
@@frankdaneluzzi3503 Dear Frank, enjoy this process & i am sure it will be a great purchase :)
@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches I'm definitely looking forward to it, thanks again. 😊
@@frankdaneluzzi3503bạn đã mua và vấn đề lịch ngày có còn sai sót nữa không?Cảm ơn bạn nhiều
When I first saw the watch in orange/black, I had to have it. I have never bought a watch so quickly and without thinking. The price is too good for the watch. By the way, Patek got the style from Mido and not the other way around!
Hello Dennis, thank you for sharing your experience. Indeed, this was such a huge release and even today it is doing so well. I agree, for this price good luck finding something so amazing :)
It would be cool if there was also a GMT hand variant in this case design
very interesting to see the feedbacks in the comment sections - some do not even want a date, others want a tourbillon - know i can only imagine what a struggle it is for the brand to come up with a good watch 😂
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches I only buy watches with a date, or even day/date. As far as GMT, I don't have one, but I do travel a lot across multiple time zones and am now hunting for a traveler's GMT. Also, this watch remi ds me of the old Soviet Slava "television" watch from the 1970-s
@@johnnie5442 i get it :) in this regard, Mido has for example this quite affordable GMT in case it has to be a Mido: www.lesambassadeurs.ch/ch_de/ocean-star-m026-629-17-051-00
I have this in the yellow strap. Absolutely awesome watch. Why is your video so dark. Lighten up a bit more please
yes indeed, what i have heard so far is that there will be a black rubber strap for this one as well...
Any plans for downsizing the case to 35mm?
I mean the collections is doing very well - could be possible that they exchange the collection one day.
How come every video I see of this watch it's always the blue dial. No love for the green dial anywhere. Is it just not popular or is it not a good implementation of vintage green, like the GO?
Probably because blue is a more "common" color and a more "lean back" choice. Nevertheless, in 2023 many watch brands introduced new models with a green dial. Eventually, it is all about preferences and has nothing to do with love or hate :) personally i struggled a lot to choose a color within this Mido collections since they all look amazing.
Can you go swimming in the pool with the Multifort ,thanks ❤️👍🏴
Does the orange bracelet go well with the blue dial? I like the orange bracelet and the blue dial 😕
I think best combo is orange - blue & orange & black. If you wear the orange strap on the green one this probably will be too much :) but eventually there is no such thing as a fashion police - mainthing you feel comfortable.
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches Thanks for that 🙏. Maybe if it isn’t much of ask, could you also put in some strap combinations on the different dials? Thanks
@@srikanth85in can you be bit more specific? Im not sure if i understood your question :)
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches Sorry about that 😬 I wanted to see all the dials in all the strap combinations..Blue dial with blue, orange and metal etc..
@@srikanth85in Unfortunately we did not shoot all the combination but thank you for your feedback, because we will consider things like this for future hands on reviews 🙏👀
Great watch... Just if... There were no issues with the big date... 😢...
And I'm not the only one...
U got 2 years warranty, no worries
This was with the first serie, in the meanwhile they should have fixed it.
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches
Yes, exactly, since novembre 2023.
Hi, is there anyone complain about the “date” being stuck
Hello Kevin, we received this question before but no complains so far.
Yes, the "date" got stuck in less than a month. I have seen several complaints on the web. My suggestion is avoid Big "date".
After 2 months of buying my watch, the date window was stuck. I took it in for warranty and had to wait 3 to 6 months. 😢
Yes I've read several reviews about the date sticking
Many cases of this !
Be careful!!!☝🏽 First of all, i was overwhelmed by this watch, the dial is incredible! but there is one problem with the dial, they have a lot of errors! i had to bring back two of them! the third one was ok!
What kind of errors ?
@@fungus70 White shining points on the dial. and scratches on the dial! In some reviews you can see them too. also on the glas i have 2 scratches after 3 weeks! thats unacceptable!!!
You know that you can scratch sapphire glas? Sapphire is not the hardest material on the scale...
Regarding the Dial, this is the first feedback of this kind. Yes, we had some feedbacks regarding the date but never any issues with the dial.
Where can I buy this in india
You can buy it at our online store, we can ship it to India :)
This is when I am adding my shipping address
Warranty of watch and delivery partner let me know
Is this available in Ethos watch botique India
@@azharkazi7299 can you write an e-mail here? eshop@lesambassadeurs.ch we will guide you there :)
I would prefer a nice leather strap!
Could maybe happen one day through new releases - who knows ;)
The Nautilus came out in 1976!?!?! So this isn't a copy of their design?
This one was released in 1973...
A more slimlined version would be great. That crown guard is sooo ugly
lol actually not - because imagine how ugly it would look without it? It would look to dominant and out of place...
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches just make a normal sized crown
Too bad its 48 mm lug to lug, when will watch makers learn that people want smaller lug to lugs
I think regardless of the size, no brand will ever be able to please all clients. Because, when it comes to the size some people say they find above 38mm everthing too big, while others find everything below 40mm too small. In this case, since this collection is doing well, it might get an update with a smaller case size - we will see :)
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches Well, now you are speaking about case diameter, which is not nearly as important as lug to lug. you can have a watch have both 38 and 40 mm but with lug to lug of ounder 46mm
PLEASE SPANISH COMENT THE MEXICAN DON'T ANDERSTAND, THESE IS VERY INTERESANT
I never been impress with Mido. Always been copy cat from others.
What did they copy here from others? :)
@@LesAmbassadeurs-WatchesMido has this style way before the nautilus
@@matthart4465 Exactly :)
Ignorant.
Is it true that the date numbers get stucked and don't change?
Never heard that before to be honest. So far we only received postive feedbacks.
I have one and i dont have this problem
@@niklaslinner93 You are lucky. Mine got stuck in less than a month. It's now in the service center for repair.
Ahh thats bad. Hope mine do not the same one day
Yes! My watch was purchased 2 months ago and had to be returned for warranty. Actually, this watch's date window has a problem 😢
A no date version would be great.
This is a good point even though i like how the date moves. I think alrrady the date position for example at 3 or 6 o'clock would make a big difference.
😮 A big date function is a thing of beauty! Hard to find at this price point. I got the blue dial with blue rubber and a spare orange strap. It's a fabulous quality watch.
@@Tikkaspecial So far we only received positive feedbacks such as yours - it`s just amazing! :) What was your overall experience until now? Did you get any feedbacks from others?
@@LesAmbassadeurs-Watches everyone loves it that I've shown. I honestly get as much pleasure out of wearing this as my watches that cost many times more. I even took a video on my phone of me manually changing the date so I could watch the dual date dials snap into place. Yes, I know, pretty sad, 🙂
No date version would be just a boring watch
