Our take on the Mido Ocean Star Tribute (M026.830.11.051.00)

The Ocean Star Tribute is Mido's vintage-styled dive watch, a 40.5mm stainless steel case with a black dial, sapphire crystal and 200m water resistance. It runs on an automatic movement with a date and lumed hands and markers, and it ships on a steel bracelet, with textile and leather straps offered on other versions. It suits buyers who want a Swiss automatic diver with real dive-watch specs without the size or price of a flagship diver. Against rivals like the Seiko Prospex divers and the Tissot Seafarer, it leans on its retro skin-diver look and slim case rather than on a rotating bezel's tool features.
