About this deal

A red-painted arrow second-hand adds a pop of color to an otherwise monochromatic watch and adds some visual interest. It also makes pairing this watch with a red strap, or with red accents, even more appealing. Included Rubber Strap They’ve since been “replaced” by Seiko’s newer Seiko 5 Sports divers. While not as iconic, and with only a 100m water resistance rating instead of 200m, you might have an easier time sourcing one of these new Seiko 5 Sports Divers instead of an SKX. Orient Kamasu / Mako / Ray Once a millionaire/billionaire makes a public appearance wearing his favorite watch piece, it immediately becomes legendary. Bill probably has other watches in his collection, but if you have a love for CASIO, you have it forever. Microsoft’s creator hints that simple, reliable watches are still in business, despite the abundance of technology in the industry. It’s more of a message to critics who believe that simple watches have been outdated and have no right to exist. Judging by the popularity of vintage CASIO representatives, CASIO simple watches will continue to be in business for a long time. While they’re a bit pricier than the MDV106, they also have an automatic mechanical movement instead of quartz, so it runs purely on motion and energy, instead of a battery. The screw connection on the base of the housing optimally protects the inner workings of the watch and simultaneously provides easy access, when changing the battery for example.

I wonder about the reason for this decision. The guys at hodinky-365.com assume CASIO ran out of licenses to use the logo. Hmm, I doubt that’s a problem for such a giant, although CASIO might not consider having a marlin on display as something essential. The hands and/or the index have a fluorescent coating and will glow in the dark if the watch has been previously exposed to a light source Whichever strap you choose, just be sure to get one with a 22mm width, as that’s the lug width of the MDV. That said, the Casio MDV-106 Duro dial is highly “ reminiscent” of the Rolex Submariner and Yachtmaster. Evocative? Derivative? No matter how you slice it, the 44mm watch is a minimalist monster in the legibility department. The well-framed date window and perfectly-sized and placed text keep the Duro’s design”classic.” But for an everyday watch, I do tend to prefer sapphire crystals for the added scratch resistance. Unfortunately, some corners need to be cut for watches in this price range, and the crystal is often one of the first cost-cutting corners they go with. MovementBevels and chamfers reflect light and add a bit of bling, and when done well, can make a watch appear a bit more expensive than it is, as long as they don’t go overboard.

Resin consists of synthetic resin and is the ideal material for bracelets due to its extreme durability and flexibility.The contrast of brushed surfaces on top of the case and lugs against the polished sides gives the watch a good visual appeal, however, neither the brushing nor polishing are done amazingly well… Then again, watches at this price point rarely ever are.
