The unwavering reliability of the Ocean Star has made it a constant companion during the toughest marine challenges since its creation in 1944. Even in those days, MIDO was a pioneer in water-resistance, inventing the Aquadura system which first appeared in the 1930s.

The time at home... and wherever you roam!
With perfect legibility, the Ocean Star GMT displays two time zones for those who like to travel across land and sea. The model's diamond-cut hands indicate the hours and minutes, while the red varnished hand points to the second time zone on the flange.

White Super-LumiNova® on each of the hands and the indexes serves to guide intrepid explorers, even in the dark. The navy blue dial on the Ocean Star GMT matches the blue of the aluminium ring on the polished, fluted bezel. Silver accents add sparkle to this nautical face: on the flange, on the bezel markings, and also around the even-numbered hour indexes, whose unusual shape is reminiscent of a shark's teeth.

Finally, its highly practical design also features the date in a window at 3 o'clock. This adventurer of the high seas is protected by a domed sapphire crystal of a similar volume to the Plexiglas crystal on the era's classic pieces.
