The art of architecture is built into the DNA of Mido timepieces. They look to monuments that stand the test of time, and adapt their indelible forms for the wrist. The circular geometry of the Colosseum. The graceful petals of the ArtScience Museum. The steel suspensions of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. The lattermost, with its proud arch constructed of 40,000 tonnes of metal and six million rivets, captivated the world with its ambition and inspired the design of a contemporary from the 1930s, the Multifort wristwatch.

Characterised by vertical Geneva striping on the dial that brings to mind the sturdy suspension cables of ?The Coathanger?, the Multifort was Mido?s first automatic, antimagnetic, shock-resistant and water-resistant timepiece. These fundamental attributes allowed the line to enjoy exceptional popularity and longevity for more than 85 years. Today, the Multifort Skeleton Vertigo elevates its style with an open construction on the front that exposes the high performance mechanism behind the timepiece.
