Rediscovering a Classic: The MIDO Multifort TV Big Date S01E01

MIDO has once again stirred the pot of creativity with the release of the Multifort TV Big Date S01E01 watch. This timepiece is not just a mere accessory; it’s a statement for those who wear their passion for watches on their wrist.

Design & Inspiration 

The Multifort TV Big Date S01E01 is a nod to the nostalgic era of boxy television sets, a design MIDO first embraced in 1973 and revisited in subsequent years. Now, fifty years later, the iconic TV-shaped case is back, revamped with vibrant new hues that demand attention.

Aesthetic Appeal 

The watch boasts a flat, square satin-brushed bezel, framing a reflective dial that catches the light and the eye. At the 12 o’clock position, the BIG DATE window stands out, ensuring the date is always clear and present. It’s a feature that’s both functional and a focal point of the watch’s face.

Mechanical Mastery 

Flip the watch over, and the transparent sapphire case back reveals the heart of the timepiece: the Calibre 80. This movement is not only robust, with an impressive 80-hour power reserve, but it’s also water-resistant up to 10 bar. The Nivachron balance spring within is a testament to modern engineering, offering superior resistance to shocks and magnetic fields.

Dimensions & Comfort 

The case measures 39.20 mm in length and 11.5 mm in thickness, ensuring a substantial yet comfortable presence on the wrist. The rubber strap, complete with a folding clasp buckle, adds to the watch’s contemporary charm and wearability.

Affordability & Enthusiasm 

The Multifort TV Big Date S01E01 is an accessible piece of luxury for the avid collector or the casual enthusiast looking to make a bold statement. With its rich features and playful colors, it’s tempting to consider owning more than just one.

The MIDO Multifort TV Big Date S01E01 is more than just a timekeeper; it’s a piece of history reimagined for the modern watch enthusiast, and is limited to 999 pieces. It’s a watch that starts conversations, turns heads, and keeps the legacy of MIDO’s innovative spirit ticking forward.
