To celebrate the 95th anniversary of the brand’s birth, Mido has launched a limited series of chronograph watches in the Commander series. The design inspiration of the watch comes from the familiar French Eiffel Tower. Many of the design details of the watch, as well as the concept to be conveyed by the watch, are consistent with the famous Eiffel Tower. The Eiffel Tower is the coordinate of time and space. Just like the Swiss Mido commander series born in 1959, it continues to write legends with its timeless classic design.

Over time, the century-old Eiffel Tower has cast its own unique identity symbol, just like the Swiss Mido Commander series perfectly presenting its classic legendary design.

Capabilities of Mido Commander Series Limited Edition Chronograph

   The new limited edition Commander series chronograph watch is presented to everyone with a new look. The round case design of the watch is derived from the beautiful and smooth lines of the Eiffel Tower. The black sunray dial is complemented by a delicate polished bezel.

   The dial of the watch is protected by a hemispherical sapphire crystal. The dial with a diameter of 42.5 mm is equipped with two snail-shaped timers, which accelerate the adrenal secretion like a track.

   The middle lines of the hour and minute hands on the dial are treated with white Super-LumiNova®, making the night readings more clear and convenient. The red 60-second central chronograph second hand adds a bright color to the dial, which is only black and white. It echoes the red numbers and ‘Limited Edition’ inlaid on the outer circle of the dial.

   At 3 o’clock, the date and day are displayed. The silver square display frame is slightly solemn in the round dial. It is like a sign on the track, simple but important.

   From the side, the Commander’s limited-edition chronograph looks heavy. This is related to the internal movement of the movement, the thickness of the movement has reached 7.9 mm, the case is naturally not thin.

On June 1, 2012, the German top watch brand Glashütte and the Dresden Music Festival jointly held the ninth Glashütte Music Festival award ceremony. This year, a prize of € 25,000 was awarded to French pianist Hélène Grimaud. Mr. Dieter Pachner, vice president of global sales for Glashütte, and Mr. Jan Vogler, chairman of the Dresden Festival, jointly presented the prize to Ms. Hélène Grimaud . Later, Hélène Grimaud held an extraordinary concert at the Dresden Semper Opera House. As an ambassador for the Villa Sans Souci International Children’s Camp, Ms. Grimmo decided to donate the prize money to support an event organized by the organization in Brandenburg.
   Hélène Grimaud is one of the most distinctive and successful pianists of our time. Her music is powerful and can effectively use music as a medium for communication and mutual understanding. She is committed to social and environmental protection activities, such as creating a ‘wolf protection center’. An active member in the preparation of the Villa Sans Souci International Children’s Camp, Hélène Grimaud was awarded the 2012 Glashütte Music Award in recognition of her contribution.
    As in previous years, the Glashütte Music Award trophy was produced by two apprentices from the Alfred Hevig Watchmaking School, which is owned by the Glashütte Watch Field. As an integral and indispensable part of the Glashütte Watchmaking Factory, 15 students enter this watchmaking school each year for ten consecutive years, 12 of which will become watchmakers and 3 will become toolmakers in the future. The design of the trophy is a combination of traditional watchmaking technology and modern materials. Cantilevered tourbillon with 18 lightweight screws, symbolizing the watchmaker’s superb skills. The complex flying tourbillon invented in the town of Glashütte in 1920 is a microcosm of watchmaking.
    This award, founded by Glashütte, has been jointly presented by the Dresden Music Festival and the Glashütte brand since 2004. The award is given to those artists who have devoted their lives to artistic creation and pursued art tirelessly over the past few decades. Earlier winners of the Glashütte Music Awards include the famous German conductor Kurt Masur, the American dancer John Neumeier, and the German opera conductor Jurch Hertz ( Joachim Herz), Latvian violinist Gidon Kremer, and German mezzo-soprano singer Christa Ludwig.
    With the conductor Gustava Dudamel receiving the Glashütte Music Awards in 2009, this award has new momentum: this is the first time the Glashava Music Awards have been awarded to a person who fosters and supports the future An artist who spends a lot of time and effort. Similarly, the award, which was awarded to the well-known Mariinsky Theatre Director and General Manager in 2010, Mr. Valery Gergiev, reflects this new trend. Since then, this award has been used to support the development of young artists.
