Lexor Miami is proud to carry the Mido Multifort TV Big Date Special Edition S01E02 — season one's second episode in Mido's television-inspired watchmaking story, built around a dial that recreates the hypnotic color bars of a vintage TV test card.

Where the original Multifort TV Big Date plays it straight, the S01E02 leans all the way into its name: a multicolor "pixel-noise" relief dial that shimmers as the watch catches the light, framed by a grey PVD-coated steel case that keeps the overall look reading as design rather than novelty.

The Dial: A Test Card You Can Wear

Before television stations began broadcasting, they filled the screen with a test card — bars of color used to calibrate the picture. The S01E02 dial recreates that same idea in relief, a multicolor center that catches and scatters light differently with every movement of the wrist. A grey border frames the scene, with recessed hour markers filled in white Super-LumiNova, while the big date window at 12 o'clock stays clean and legible: white numerals on black, no distraction from the main event.

Diamond-cut, faceted hands pick up the same lume treatment as the markers, so the dial's personality by day gives way to a crisp, functional glow by night.

Grey PVD Case, Two Bonus Straps

The TV-shaped case is built in stainless steel with a uniform grey PVD coating across brushed planes and polished accents, finished with a screw-down crown and guards for everyday durability. It ships three ways to wear it: on its integrated grey-PVD steel bracelet, or swapped onto either of two included quick-change rubber straps.

Movement: Caliber 80, Decorated for the Occasion

Behind the sapphire exhibition case back is Mido's automatic Caliber 80 (based on the ETA C07.651), delivering up to 80 hours of power reserve at 21,600 vibrations per hour. A Nivachron™ balance spring adds resistance to shocks and magnetic fields, while Côtes de Genève decoration and a Mido-engraved oscillating weight make the movement worth showing off through the open case back.

Who Should Buy the S01E02?

Caring for Your Mido S01E02

Clean the grey-PVD case and bracelet with a soft, slightly damp cloth, and avoid abrasive materials that could affect the PVD finish. When swapping straps, handle the quick-change mechanism gently, and store the strap you're not wearing somewhere it won't get scratched. Thanks to 100m water resistance, the watch handles daily splashes and hand-washing comfortably.

Final Thoughts

The Mido Multifort TV Big Date S01E02 commits fully to its concept — a watch that looks like it was pulled straight off a vintage test-pattern broadcast, backed by a genuinely well-specified automatic movement. Lexor Miami has it in stock now for collectors who want their next watch to have a story worth telling.
