Mido Multifort Gents & Chrono Valjoux Watches For 2009
Mido has had a long history of Multifort watches over the years. I don't really get the name, and the people at Mido I spoke with don't really understand it either. Some combination of the world "multi" and "comfort?" Which means what? It provide multiple types of comfort, OK.Anyhow, the Multifort name has now been applied to yet another watch, and one that is really cool. So cool I wish they would have given it a better name. There are are two versions of the new 2009 Multifort. the three-hand day-date Multifort Gents with an automatic ETA 2836-2 movement, and the Multifort Chrono Valjoux with (you guessed it) an automatic ETA Valjoux 7750 chronograph movement.The watches are 44mm wide in steel cases and 11-14mm thick (depending on the version).

Re-coating "blackened steel" ROO EOD or Las Vegas editions?

If you had 2k laying around what watch would you buy
Need some advice for a possible next purchase.So I have been content being a one watch guy, but I would love having one more. Some things in life led me to that and no regrets could not be happier. Don't get me wrong love my Sub C date,but sometimes I get the itch for another fine piece. I had a good year at work and got a very nice bonus.
