Mido watches anyone?

New member here. Been browsing the forums for a while but never needed to ask anything before.

I’m looking to buy a new watch to wear every day but that has a bit more style than my current Oris BC3 which is a bit more ‘jeans casual’.

I have a Dubey & Schaldenbrand Aerodyne that comes out of the box (very disappointing presentation case) for very special events so am looking for something half way between the two style wise.

I’m liking the Sinn range (556) and can get to view these with Chronomaster being local to me but keep coming back to the Mido Baroncelli.

Has anyone got experience of Mido (quality, reliability) and where can I get one from? A quick qoogle produces www.watcharoo.co.uk, has anyone used them?

Sorry for so many questions but you all seem jolly nice chaps and know your watches.


P.S. £ 500 max budget if anyone id going to suggest others.

He was crap for Spurs so I can't imagine his watches are any better.

Also - he's Egyptian - watches are purely jewelry there.

I have a Mido Commander, I wore it on my wedding day. Hmm...have not had it on since (1.5 yr) though. It looks good, can't vouch for its long term reliability.
