Mido - Commander 20th Anniversary Limited Edition

Paying tribute to the Eiffel Tower, the new Commander 20th Anniversary Limited Edition has a price of Euro 1,420

Mido is presenting the last of the five exclusive creations, one for each of their flagship collections, designed to celebrate the special link of the brand with the world of architecture and, in particular, the 20th anniversary since the launch of a special All Dial model evoking the Roman Colosseum amphitheatre in 2002.

After the All Dial, the Baroncelli, the Ocean Star and the Multifort, it is now time to unveil the Commander celebrative edition. 

Paying tribute to the Eiffel Tower, the new Commander 20th Anniversary Limited Edition is characterised by several nods recalling the symbol of Paris and will be produced in a limited run of 1,889 pieces – a reference to the year in which the ‘Iron Lady’ was unveiled. 

Framed by a 40 mm case crafted from satin-finished and polished stainless steel and protected by a faceted and domed sapphire crystal, the anthracite dial stands out for its delicate sunray finish as well as for the large diamond-cut hour and minute hands and polished indexes, all enhanced by light brown Super-LumiNova ensuring complete legibility even at night.

The shape of the index at 12 o’clock evokes the unmistakeable Tower’s silhouette. A very practical aperture at 3 o’clock displays the day and date. 

The screwed case back is decorated with a representation of the Eiffel Tower and engraved with the individual number of each timepiece (xxxx/1889). Water-resistance is ensured up to a pressure of 5 bar (50 metres / 165 feet).

The movement of choice is the automatic Mido Caliber 80 Si (ETA C07.621 base) beating at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a power reserve of 80 hours.

Fitted with a high-tech silicon balance-spring, this movement has been certified as a Chronometer by the COSC (Contrôle Officiel Suisse des Chronomètres).

Presented in a special case alongside a commemorative medallion and a limited-edition certificate, the Mido Commander 20th Anniversary Limited Edition ref. M021.431.11.061.02 has a price of Euro 1,420. midowatches.com
