What sets the Commander Gradient Rose Gold apart is its unique black gradient dial featuring rose gold applied markers filled with Super-LumiNova which glows bright in the dark. This partially-tinted acrylic dial enhances the legibility of its rectangular applied indexes with a darker outer dial which fades smoothly into a clear transparent at the centre of this timepiece, revealing the grand gear work of the Mido Caliber 80 powering the watch. Complemented with a slender bezel framing a gently sloping flange, this charming skeleton dial offers a striking contrast to its distinct polished diamond-cut hour and minute hands in the same rose gold accent, that are shaped uniquely to Mido’s iconic Commander collection. Additionally, the date wheel can be seen clearly through this intriguing smoky dial, allowing for clear date display at a glance.

This remarkable timepiece comes on a formal black leather strap with embossed alligator pattern, allowing it to form a single perfect timepiece that ensures comfortable wear while keeping a classy look. This leather strap is also fitted with a Mido signed clasp which shows off a matching rose gold PVD treatment.
