- Is the Mido Multifort TV Big Date a good everyday watch?
- Yes. It has sapphire glass, 100 m water resistance and an 80-hour automatic movement, so it handles daily wear and a weekend off the wrist. The PVD bezel is the main thing to protect.
- How does it compare with the standard Multifort?
- The TV Big Date uses a cushion-shaped case and a big date at 12 instead of the round case and 3 o'clock date of the standard Multifort. Both share the Powermatic 80 movement, but the TV version is the more distinctive design.
- Can I swim with it?
- It is rated to 100 m, which covers swimming and snorkeling. It has no screw-down crown, so avoid diving and don't operate the crown in water.
- How long does it run without winding?
- About 80 hours, roughly three days, thanks to the Powermatic 80 movement. That means it keeps time through a weekend on the nightstand.
- Can I change the bracelet for a leather strap?
- It is possible, but the integrated-style lugs mean standard straight straps leave gaps. Plan on a fitted strap made for this case.
- Is the caseback see-through?
- Yes. A sapphire crystal caseback shows the decorated automatic movement.
