OCEAN STAR GMT
MIDO is enriching its Ocean Star collection with a version equipped with the highly practical GMT function. It clearly displays the time in two different time zones: home time and local time. On the back of the timepiece – fitted with the Caliber 80, which offers a power reserve of up to 80 hours – MIDO has engraved the time-zone indications. The extremely easy-to-use GMT function offers twice as much freedom for those who are either by the ocean or on an adrenalin-fuelled adventure.

Mido Ocean Star GMT
When I opened the box, I knew it was exactly the look I was hoping for. It's big: 44mm and my wrist is a small 6.5 inches, but I am honestly comfortable with the look. Pros: beautiful design (the sloped GMT scale chapter ring really balances the dial and bezel and makes everything proportional), date disc matches dial, beefy crown, interesting skeletonized hands that aren't ugly, 80 hour power reserve, true traveller GMT movement, great value IMO ($1,475 CAD), deep blue ceramic bezel Cons: textile strap is a bit stiff (but will get better in time), bezel aligns properly, but the action isn't tight like my Ball and Oris and there's a bit of play (I'd read about this beforehand and it's true), and the lume is just okay. At this price point, there are few options that have this combination of power reserve, traveller GMT, all the proper diver specs (lume bauble on seconds hand and 12 O'clock bezel, unidirectional dive bezel, screw down crown with crown guards, etc), and what I consider just extremely thoughtful design touches (like how the 12 and 6 applied indicies are two squares to differentiate them from the others, the seconds and GMT hands are painted deep blue, and the dial has very little writing - no Pelegos novels to be read here*) 9/10, I'm very happy - so far it's losing 1-2 seconds per day which is fine. *no serious disrespect to the Pelagos, it's a great watch, but that dial does contain a small novel
