A lightweight titanium Swiss automatic with a 1970s TV-shaped case and a proper big date complication.

The Multifort TV revives Mido’s 1970s cushion case in brushed titanium, with a grey-gradient dial and the twin-window big date usually found on far more expensive watches.

The review

The Multifort TV revives Mido’s 1970s cushion case in brushed titanium, with a grey-gradient dial and the twin-window big date complication usually reserved for far more expensive watches.

Inside is Mido’s Caliber 80 with an 80-hour power reserve — take it off Friday night and it is still running Monday morning. Titanium keeps the whole watch notably light on the wrist. Specifications were checked against the linked listing; confirm the exact reference before ordering.

The trade-off: the distinctive TV-shaped case is a deliberate style statement, and Swiss servicing costs more than a Japanese movement would.

Best for

A first proper Swiss automatic that stands apart from round dive watches.

Think twice if

You want an understated classic rather than a retro statement piece.
