The Mido Ocean Star 200: The Swiss Diver for Under $1,000 That Few Know Exists
Mido is Swiss. It has official distribution in Mexico and Colombia through the Swatch Group. Its Ocean Star 200—textured dial, aluminum bezel, 80-hour power reserve, 200m water resistance—is priced at $980 USD. An estimated $20,000–$23,000 MXN at an authorized retailer. The argument that "Swiss" always means more expensive than Japanese has just lost its most convenient premise.
