What’s your view on the fit, quality and reliability of the Mido? It’s not a brand I’ve looked in to previously but they do seem to do some interesting designs

I know it is Christmas Eve but let's not forget it is also, and still, #FliegerFriday

Good to see that you arrived ok. :thumbup:

Thank you, Neil. Yes the UN is also here with me – I went double-wristed on the plane. The UN gets the gala dinner later this evening and Christmas Day events tomorrow!

Absolutely no worries so far. Spot on time keeper with the new ETA 80 hr movement available in many brands across the Swatch conglomerate. It is the mid grade I believe, with the upgrade being the same internals just COSC certified. The aluminum bezel is nothing special, but the clicker is nice and tight. Noticeably lighter than steel, and purchased during a Black Friday sale from Joma for $629 it was almost a no brainer. Actually, a great vacation watch. 200 meters water resistance, screw down crown, and impervious to salt water, and not so valuable.
