Mido Multifort Extra-Flat

Description

The Mido Multifort “Extra-Flat” is a prime example of post-war Swiss design at its most elegant and utilitarian. Slim, clean, and mechanically straightforward, this reference reflects Midos long-standing reputation for creating well-engineered watches that sit comfortably at the intersection of style and reliability.

The cream-toned dial shows natural patina across its surface, framed by applied numerals at 12, 3, 6, and 9 and wedge-shaped indices at the remaining hours. The sub-seconds dial at 6 oclock is beautifully executed with concentric guilloch detailing a hallmark of thoughtful design in mid-century Swiss watches.

Despite its name, the watch wears with solid wrist presence due to its long lugs and polished steel case. Its powered by a slim hand-wound movement and fitted here on a brown stitched leather strap that complements the warm tones of the dial.

The engraved caseback reads Mido Multifort Waterproof Antimagnetic Shockproof Stainless Steel, emphasizing the watchs original positioning as both elegant and durable a duality Mido mastered in the 1950s.
