Our take on the Mido Multifort TV Big Date (M049.526.37.291.00) 39.2 x 40 mm

The Multifort TV Big Date is Mido's revival of the 1970s TV-shaped case, now 39.2 x 40 mm in rose-gold PVD steel with a brown-to-black gradient dial. Its standout is the oversized double-window date at 12, driven by the Swatch Group's automatic Caliber 80 with an 80-hour power reserve. It suits buyers who want a retro-cushion sports watch with real mechanical substance rather than a fashion piece. Against cushion-case rivals it offers more water resistance (100 m) and a longer reserve, but its rubber strap and gold-tone finish make it less of an all-rounder than steel-bracelet alternatives.

Owners praise the case shape and the big date as the reasons to buy, and the Caliber 80's reserve is well regarded. Common complaints center on the gold-tone finish and the strap rather than the movement.

What people mention

  • FinishCriticisedSome owners report the rose-gold PVD coating scratches and dulls with wear.

Questions and answers

Is the Mido Multifort TV Big Date a good everyday watch?
Yes for casual wear. The 100 m water resistance, sapphire crystal and 80-hour reserve make it low-maintenance, though the gold-tone finish and rubber strap keep it casual.
How does it compare with the original 1970s Multifort TV?
It keeps the cushion case and adds a big date, sapphire crystal and the modern Caliber 80. The original was smaller and had a simpler date.
What is the power reserve?
About 80 hours, so it keeps running through a weekend off the wrist.
Can it be worn swimming?
It is rated 10 ATM (100 m), which covers swimming and showering. The rubber strap suits water use better than leather.
What is in the box?
The watch on its rubber strap with buckle, plus Mido's warranty card and presentation box.
Is the case size unisex?
The 39.2 x 40 mm cushion case suits most wrists, but the width wears larger than a round 39 mm watch.
