Launched in 1934, the Multifort is one of Mido’s emblematic collection as well as one of the longest-produced series in the history of Swiss watchmaking.

For the Multifort Escape Horween Special Edition, Mido partnered with renowned leather tanner Horween, an American brand founded in the early 20th century.

The large touches of beige Super-LumiNova on the numerals, the skeleton hour and minute hands, and the tip of the seconds hand ensure perfect readability in all conditions. The date is displayed in an aperture at 6 o’clock.

The watch is supplied with two easily interchangeable Horween leather straps: the Essex, in brown genuine calfskin, whose patina will develop over time, with black stitching, and American Football in black genuine calfskin with beige stitching – the official leather used by Horween to manufacture American footballs for over 70 years.
