The Ocean Star is the brand's nautical dive watch collection that consists of the most modern Swiss Made divers in different color variants and strap combos. Seventy-five years after the unveiling of its very first Ocean Star, MIDO has sought to improve its dive watch line. After decades of research and development, the Ocean Star has become their modern mechanical dive watch it is today. Durability and robustness both inside out, which they are known since the 1940s for its unfailing water-resistance. The design cues strongly reflect on its MIDO SkyDive Diver and Diver Scuba, while pumping a distillation of glamourous two-tone charm of the 80s that was recently brought back.The Ocean Star Captain sized for modern tastes at a 42.5mm diameter case with a height of 11.75mm. The straightforward and robust design, which was archetypal that stamped the world of dive watches since its popularity of recreational diving in the 60s. The Ocean Star Captain furthers bears their iconic straight lugs mid-case design with full satin-brushed polishing with polished bevels to enhance the tool-watch of the 60s look. The finishings done here, to be honest, is almost impeccable, elevating luxurious sides out from its shadow.The PVD rose gold coated diver-oriented bezel features a black tone with rose gold colored markings, and the pip at 12 o’clock be filled with Super-LumiNova, rotating at 120 clicks crisply in an anti-clockwise direction and locks into its position. The case back has a beautiful surprise in store- decorated with a polished starfish in relief, the historical symbol of the Ocean Star.The pioneer of the water-tight case in the early 30s, Mido, gets the water-resistance up to a pressure of 20 bars (200m), an over-built feature of any diver's watch. At the same time, most of us might most probably bring it to the beach for some sun-tanning with our children, or at the office behind our desk "diving" away.It features baton-style applied indexes gilded in rose gold-tone as well, with the same Super-LumiNova paired with a legible, well-contrasted luminous handset. The Mido logo and the Ocean Star Diver description are all balanced from the top down in relief, which is a nice touch. The matte black background seemingly enhanced the legibility of the rose-y handset and markers in most environments. A second-hand orange tip is spot-on here while it, too, improves readability for the wearer with the brand’s colorway. Finally, the integrated two-tone bracelet injects a healthy dose of sporty style, giving the Ocean Star the superb tool watch-look. It's robustly built with comfort and innate water-resistance naturally lends it to a must-have for dive watches. The signed clasp features a diver extension that allows one to adjust with ease.MakerMIDOMovementSwiss automatic movement Caliber 80 (base ETA C07.621 / 2836-2)DialBlackLuminousBGW9 SuperLuminovaCaseStainless steel with rose gold PVD coatingBezelAluminum bezelCrown typeScrewdown crown at 3 O'clockLug width22mmCrystal materialSapphire crystal with double sided anti-reflection treatmentStrapStainless steel with rose gold PVD coatingWater resistance200mDimensions42.5mm in diameter, 49mm lug to lug, 11.75mm thick
