m (20 bar, 656 ft). Prices for the Ocean Star Captain V in titanium sit between 990 and 1,100 USD. Stainless steel models generally cost slightly less at 880 to 1,000 USD. Two-tone editions are the exception, demanding around 1,200 USD. The Traveller GMT is often seen as being a more functional and exclusive complication. Some people even refer to it as a “true” GMT movement, but I think it is unhelpful as it adds a layer of unwarranted snobbery to the argument. It is also true that some of the Seiko watches that have this setting method use the Kinetic family of movements and are very modest, so the snobbery is unjustified. With the launch of Ocean Star, the company also introduced two new technologies, the Aquadura and Power wind. It contributed towards power reserve and resistance, a much-needed aspect in watches.

Mido was known for being progressive and ahead of its time. As a result, it was natural that Mido Robot was chosen as the brand ambassador. Mido kept setting different benchmarks for their watches, and the technology incorporated in them. In 1954, they launched the power wind winding system, which improved the power reserve for Mido watches. At the same time, this technology also improved the reliability of these timepieces by reducing the use of components.

Mido designed exemplary watch models to meet the precision and reliability needs of the customer. Apart from the Mido Ocean Star watches that revolutionized the watchmaking world, they also designed the Bodyguard and Worldtimer. The bodyguard watch was designed as a personal protector to the wearer of this piece. It came with an integrated alarm that rang up to 100 decibels. The Worldtimer was the world’s first-ever analogue watch that indicated the local time of the country. This concept helped people know the real time for that country. Mido was also responsible for developing the smallest ladies’ watch during this period. It was focused on improving their brand’s visibility as well. Their brand’s slogan “Reflecting on Time” said a lot about their aim to brand through precision. I should say that Mido are not active in the UK market. They have no dealer network or even an agent over here. Nor will they sell direct to customers. I did ask Mido directly, but they refused.These elevate what could otherwise look a little utilitarian into something smarter and even perhaps dressier. In an “office” GMT, the first détente on the crown sets the GMT hand, usually in 1-hr increments. It moves independently of all the other hands. Ocean Star is one of the oldest and most successful models in the Mido catalog. The first Ocean Star debuted in 1944, making it one of the earliest water-resistant watches. Its single-shell (or "monocoque") stainless steel case and then-revolutionary cork sealing system made waves in the industry. The latter? Everyone else. Well, everyone apart from a few Omegas, and their recent innovation, a non-GMT complication in the calibre 8500 movement family, which offers timezone-setting (1-hr increments) on 3-handed watches. The Mido uses rectangular indices all round, apart from double squares at 12 and 6, and a single square to accommodate the date at 3. Even the 12-marker on the bezel is a square, albeit with a round lume pip within. The hands are folded, with a brushed centre section and polished edges. The H and M hands have rectangular lume sections on the outer ends, and empty windows on the pinion end. Both the GMT and the seconds hand have blue arrow heads.
