Start Your Engines: MIDO’s Multifort Skeleton Chronograph is a Mechanical Powerhouse with Style to Match

This isn't just a timepiece—it's a high-octane performance machine strapped to your wrist. MIDO's latest drop, the Multifort Skeleton Chronograph, isn't here to play nice. It's engineered to impress, built to perform, and bold enough to turn heads whether you're on the track or behind a desk.

Available in two striking versions—one veiled in stealthy greys and the other dialed up in electric blue—this chronograph cuts through the noise with a skeletonised dial that exposes the heart of its operation: the automatic Caliber 60. We’re talking about a Swiss-made, precision-bred movement that’s anything but standard issue. With a 60-hour power reserve and a Nivachron™ balance spring—your ultimate defense against magnetic fields, temperature swings, and real-life knocks—this beast is all about staying sharp under pressure.

Let’s talk visuals. The skeletonised design isn’t just for show (though it does look incredible). The openworked dial sets the stage for a choreography of gears and finishes, with brass elements catching the light in golden bursts. Chronograph counters—whether in cool anthracite or vivid blue—are anchored by an X-shaped dial structure and complemented by a tachymeter scale for when you need to clock speed. Add Super-LumiNova® to the hands and indexes, and you’ve got a timepiece that glows with clarity long after the sun dips.

Flip it over, and the exhibition caseback serves up the rest of the show. Circular-grained bridges, a skeletonised rotor engraved with the MIDO logo, and every intricate detail of the movement are on full display. Mechanical obsession? Fully justified.

The 43 mm stainless steel case is all muscle—polished and satin-brushed for a dynamic play of texture, and sealed to withstand water pressure up to 10 bar. The anthracite version pairs with a matching steel bracelet for full-metal dominance, while the blue model gets a sporty twist with a textured rubber strap that’s as practical as it is punchy. Bonus: both versions come equipped with a quick-change system, making it effortless to swap straps depending on your mood or mission.

Want more edge? There’s a third, stealthier version in deep black with a PVD-coated case and strap, punctuated with MIDO’s signature orange accents. It’s sleek, tactical, and ready to race.

Here’s the thing: this isn’t just about telling time—it’s about owning it. The Multifort Skeleton Chronograph is built for those who like their design bold, their mechanics raw, and their performance uncompromising.
