I remember the prerelease story behind these 600m models and COSC certified too if I remember . . . Then there was no release update for what seemed like the longest time .. .. I had almost forgot about them . . . I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for a good deal Sir.. .. .. Thank you @Redfire1066. This Mido is incredible. It's in a completely different league than their the Captain range. Yes, it's COSC and 43mm. Fit and finish is top notch. The dial and bezel are amazing. And an excellent adjustable clasp too. Rolex aside, it's easily my favorite diver. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FunnyStarSystem 7,538 Posted April 23, 2021 I'm stumped @NFleischer, what are we looking at here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ It's a very handsome design, the way the lugs and sel are offset from the case is something I've never seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s solid 18ct and has the original strap/ buckle - the fact that the stars are not worn suggests very little use because the 18 carrot metal is much softer than the 14 or 9ct 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
