Following its two-crown model, MIDO unveils a streamlined yet equally dynamic version: the Multifort 8 One Crown. Its piercing blue dial, bold design and clean lines perfectly embody the urban-chic spirit of today’s watches.
In line with the exclusive TECHNOMETRY concept, the Multifort 8 One Crown combines state-of-the-art technology with geometric precision down to the smallest detail. Designed to complement every moment – from the buzzing rhythm of the day to the vibrant energy of the city at night – the Multifort 8 One Crown exhibits an arresting natural elegance.
Eight angles, eight facets, a unique style. In the Multifort 8 One Crown, MIDO has created a visionary watch alive with urban energy. A geometric aesthetic and state-of-the-art watchmaking technology come together in a contemporary design built for the city. Eight facets echo each other around the bezel, crown and screw-down case back. The satin-finished and polished steel creates a stunning play of light. The bright blue dial features an eye-catching horizontal motif.
The Multifort codes, from MIDO’s oldest collection created in 1934, are clearly evident: the ultimate in robustness thanks to materials chosen for their excellence, such as stainless steel and Super-LumiNova®; a formidable mechanical precision heart in the Caliber 80 equipped with a shock-resistant and magnetism-resistant Nivachron™ balance spring. Because every urban adventure depends on perfect timing.
An Impactful Design
In an intense blue, the dial of the Multifort 8 One Crown is designed to excite. With its horizontal lines characteristic of this collection, it radiates infectious energy. The satin-finished and polished indexes and the tri-faceted hour and minute hands are filled with white Super-LumiNova® – ensuring perfect readability both day and night.
A practical yet discreet date window, in black on a white background, appears at 3 o’clock. The perfect display for exploring the everyday with elegance and efficiency, protected by a sapphire crystal treated with an anti-reflective coating on both sides.
The other highlight of the show is the eight-sided bezel, the crown echoing this geometry on the side of the satin-finished and polished steel case, and the play of light even on the case back, which also features eight sides. For optimal reliability, the Multifort 8 One Crown can withstand a pressure of up to 10 bar (100 m/330 ft). Its satin-finished metal bracelet features a folding clasp and MIDO’s quick-change system, a striking feature for a versatile style.
State-Of-The-Art Technology
At the heart of the Multifort 8 One Crown beats the Caliber 80, delivering formidable precision. Its sublime mechanics are visible through the transparent case back, with the oscillating weight decorated with Côtes de Genève and engraved with the MIDO logo. Equipped with a high-tech Nivachron™ balance spring, this movement is particularly resistant to impacts suffered by the watch and to everyday magnetic fields. With an autonomy of up to 80 hours, it is the perfect companion for accurately measuring time and, above all, enjoying it.
MIDO expands its collection with two additional styles featuring black dials: One paired with a stainless steel bracelet for a refined look, the other fitted with a black rubber strap for a sporty feel. These interpretations offer timeless elegance while multiplying the stylistic possibilities.
