Don’t get me wrong Mido is in no way „cheap“. But I feel like at Mido you can get a lot for your money. The Divers really look good and it’s quite easy to negotiate them down in prices. Are they somehow out of fashion? Is something going on with the brand I don’t know about? And most importantly: If you own one how do you like it?

    Bought into the mido hype. Had an ocean star, imo worth saving a few hundred more dollars and getting into the next level of watches. Yea it was a solid watch but I wouldn’t say they are the most bang for your buck out there

        I think Christopher Ward is much better quality personally, there’s some others that are just a few hundred more expensive they are significantly nicer watches. Farer makes nice watches. Even slightly more expensive is into the Oris and Longines territory, both very prominent brands

          I had a hard time choosing between the Ocean Star and the C60. I loved the ceramic on the CW (much deeper blue) but for some reason the lightsaber hands on the Mido won me over.

      I’m curious, what was missing for you? What does the additional couple hundred get you that the Mido doesn’t have?
