The Multifort collection was born in 1934, becoming one of the first antimagnetic watches with an automatic movement. This was followed by the Ocean Star collection in 1959 with a revolutionary monocoque case, reducing any risk of water resistance of the case back. Today, the brand is present at numerous events and is associated, among others, with Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series and the UIA, the International Union of Architects.The Multifort collectionPassion, challenge, daring, perfect timing – these are the words that define the Mido Multifort collection and the sport of Parkour.
