Green dial, green ceramic bezel and a rose gold PVD case: the Mido Ocean Star 200C in this combination is the most luxurious-looking of the current 200C models, yet it keeps every bit of the collection’s diving capability.

The stainless steel case and screw-down crown are coated in rose gold-colored PVD and finished with alternating satin and polished surfaces. The green ceramic bezel insert, with 60-minute scale and white Super-LumiNova dot at 12, matches the matte green dial and its wave pattern. Partially skeletonized hour and minute hands, an apple-tipped seconds hand and individually applied round indexes with white lume keep it legible, and day and date apertures sit at 3 o’clock. The Caliber 80 automatic, based on the ETA C07.621, runs at 21,600 vibrations per hour with a Nivachron balance spring and an 80-hour reserve. The screwed back bears the Ocean Star starfish in polished relief.

At 42.5mm by 12.3mm on a brown crocodile-style leather strap with white stitching and rose gold PVD pin buckle, it wears like a dress diver.
