Mido Ocean Star Titanium Watch Review
I have a lot of positive things to say about Mido’s Ocean Star, a well-priced diver-style watch in titanium with a matching titanium bracelet (ref. M026.430.44.061.00). Swatch Group’s Mido brand has been a horological underdog for a while now, and I think the brand deserves a lot more attention from the enthusiast community. Pricing for most Mido watches falls in line with other Swatch Group brands, such as Tissot, Certina, and Hamilton - though Mido, by design, has some of its own specialties and design icons.

Titanium dive watches aren’t exactly uncommon these days, but Mido has finished the Ocean Star titanium so well that I feel it is an uncommonly good value. The Ocean Star is not a perfect watch

In fact, it was their expertise in this highly specialized, labor-intensive process that enabled the brand to weather the quartz crisis. Nowadays, the famed enamelworker is a
