Mine came in the mail today and I can't believe how amazing it is. It presents even better in person than in pictures/videos. Absolutely stunning on the wrist. It wears classier than a lot of divers though it is for sure chunkier than your typical dress watch. Love it.
First I like to say thanks for the video and your opinion, I purchased my Mido Ocean Star GMT Blue version on 9/18/2020 from an Authorized Dealer in Germany because when I had my picture lust for the this watch it hadn't been sold yet in the USA. I get the watch I love the watch, I find wearing the watch on Nato straps, and the watch grows in my love for the watch. I love GMT watches and I own 6 other GMT watches and this watch holds it own with my 2016 Rolex Batman and I think it near edges my 2020 Tudor BB Gmt Pepsi, so I wear the watch for approximately 7 months and not everyday I rotate with my other watches and come around April 2021. The watch has its first failure. The Hour Hand and the Date Wheel stop working. watch goes to Swatch group for repair and I don't see the watch for 3 months watch comes back straight from repair in July 2021 and the second Failure happens where the Manual Wind stop working , again watch goes back and they fix the watch. So now I am happy and the watch comes back and back into rotation and I still love the watch. Now the watch has it's forth failure and the Seconds Hand stop working and I send the watch into Swatch repair in New Jersey and they are going to fix the watch and during my conversations with the customer reps, they are telling me if I want a new watch I need to talk to the A.D. in Germany , but I tell them no I love the watch and I still want , but finally I convince them to completely replace the movement of the watch because the watch really had 4 major failures, 1. Hour hand 2. Date wheel 3. Manual wind 4. Seconds hands have all failed to work. I am still waiting the repair to finish, I am hoping to get my watch back in September or October depending on when they get the parts. I believe they are going to give me a new 2 year warranty. In my opinion I love the watch I want the watch I just want it to work correctly and use it , love it for all the reasons I purchased the watch. from other posts I heard that the first bunch of watches made sold in Asia & Europe were defective but I have no proof but I know what's happen to mine. Thanks for letting me share my story and experiences with my watch and again thanks for your video and all the best.

Value is good and this indeed is a value. A nice looking strap & a true GMT. Blue and polished steel are my favorites too. Saving up for my next GS.

This happens in the “best families” too.

So true, but it hurts when I'm the guy who has to walk away with hurt feelings 💔 lolololol , all the best.
Excellent review. I recommend investing in a Staib brushed stainless steel mesh bracelet as the blue cloth bracelet is too short for my 7.5” wrist.
almost bought this watch but i could not get passed on the wobbly gmt hand. am i the only one?
What a beautiful watch!
