Mido has unveiled the Multifort TV Big Date Limited Edition S01E01, a captivating timepiece limited to 999 pieces, inspired by the nostalgic charm of retro television sets. This unique watch features a 3-D dial that emulates the colorful “Off-Air” graphic once common on TV screens, achieved through an innovative use of multicolored, four-faceted pyramid structures. This design choice creates a dynamic illusion of movement, making the dial a focal point of the watch.

The watch’s design is not only a nod to the past but also showcases Mido’s commitment to legibility and functionality. The dial includes circular pips and trapezoidal indices filled with Super-LumiNova, ensuring readability in low-light conditions. A significant design element is the oversized date window at 12 o’clock, which stands out as a main character rather than a forgotten detail, enhancing the watch’s practicality.

Housed in a 40 x 39.2mm stainless steel case, the Multifort TV Big Date combines satin-finished and polished surfaces, paired with a satin-finished stainless steel bracelet. This design continuity ensures the watch’s aesthetic appeal while maintaining the durability and comfort expected from a Mido timepiece.
