MIDO Ocean Star 200C – Swiss Automatic Diving Watch for Men

Product Overview

The MIDO Ocean Star 200C is a Swiss automatic diving watch engineered for men who value precision, resilience, and timeless design. Crafted for both underwater adventures and daily wear, this 42.5mm timepiece blends advanced materials with dependable mechanical performance. At its core lies a Swiss automatic movement that operates without batteries, delivering consistent timekeeping and an impressive 80-hour power reserve—ideal for those who don’t wear their watch every day. The robust stainless steel case houses a unidirectional rotating ceramic bezel, offering scratch resistance and reliable dive timing. Designed with real-world use in mind, the Ocean Star 200C is built to perform under pressure, whether you’re descending into the depths or navigating a busy workday.

Key Features

• Ceramic Unidirectional Rotating Bezel: The bezel is crafted from high-grade ceramic, a material renowned in watchmaking for its exceptional hardness and resistance to wear. Its unidirectional rotation is a critical safety feature for divers, preventing accidental clockwise turns that could lead to miscalculating remaining air supply. The ceramic construction also resists fading from UV exposure, ensuring long-term clarity and appearance.
• Wave-Design Dial with Luminous Indexes: The dial features a distinctive wave pattern that pays homage to the Ocean Star’s maritime heritage. Each index is individually applied and coated with white Super-Luminova® for strong visibility in low-light or underwater conditions. This luminous coating charges quickly under light and remains legible during night dives or in dark environments.
• Swiss Automatic Movement with 80-Hour Power Reserve: The self-winding mechanical movement harnesses the natural motion of the wearer’s wrist to stay powered. When fully wound, it maintains accuracy for up to 80 hours—over three full days—making it reliable even if the watch isn’t worn daily. This eliminates the need for battery replacements and supports sustainable, long-term use.
• 20-Bar Water Resistance: Rated for 20 bar (approximately 200 meters), the watch is suitable for recreational scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming, and other water sports. This level of water resistance ensures protection against pressure encountered during typical underwater activities.
• Enhanced Crown Protection: The case design incorporates additional shielding around the screw-down crown, reducing exposure to impacts and helping prevent water ingress. This thoughtful engineering enhances durability during active use, whether diving or engaging in outdoor pursuits.
• Screw-Down Case Back with Ocean Star Engraving: The solid case back is securely fastened and engraved with the iconic Ocean Star logo, reflecting the watch’s heritage and commitment to quality. This detail adds a refined, personal touch for collectors and enthusiasts.
• Day and Date Calendar Display: Integrated seamlessly into the dial, the day-date complication offers practical functionality for everyday life. It supports organization and time management without disrupting the watch’s sporty, balanced aesthetic.

Important Notes

The manufacturer’s warranty is available and can be requested directly from customer service. While the watch is built for diving, it is not intended for saturation diving or deep-sea expeditions beyond its 200-meter rating. Regular maintenance is recommended to preserve water resistance and movement performance. The package includes the watch only; additional straps or accessories are not mentioned in the original content. Always ensure the crown is fully screwed down before exposure to water.
