So spewin - I placed my order yesterday when it was $78, and didn't close the browser tab. This morning I was just closing my old tabs from yesterday and saw this one had dropped to $57. Gah!
I think its beautiful. I have a thing for Blue Dial Diver watches.
There's a good video by Jody from Just One More Watch showing possible upgrades as well: https://youtu.be/aIgoLwzR_0U
Hope this helps someone.

    Thanks OP! I hear they are going to discontinue the blue version and also the marlin logo in the non-North America regions.

      removing the marling would be a bit sad, i think aquatic themed logo on dive watches is nice …..

      pity black isn’t at a killer price , i’d get one of those also

      also great in the garden or doing wet trades while renovation, the WR200 and lock down crown means easy to wash even with warm soapy water ….

      and when you decide you want l wear it it’s ready to go ….. just make sure to pull out crown if you are going to store so battery life is extended ……

      • Plug on 07/02/2022 - 16:31

        What does that do?

        • jollibot on 07/02/2022 - 20:04

          It disengages the mechanism so it doesn't use any power - making the battery last longer.

      the casio is quartz so pick it up and ready to go …..my orient doesn’t get worn much as it’s automatic and if it hasn’t been work for a few days it needs to have the time set ….. quartz just pick it up and go …. i do my own battery swaps ….only thing better is an eco drive ……but there are no WR200 ecodrives under $100 ….

    • Plug on 07/02/2022 - 16:34

      I've got a Mako 2 and am still toying with buying this. If I can confirm the lug width is the same I will as I can have choice of strap or bracelet on either

        Which is exactly the same video as in the description.

        It's worth mentioning if you're thinking of doing these mods then you might want to consider just buying a Steeldive SD1940 instead as everything is already done except for the milled clasp, but the bracelet has solid end links & the bezel insert is ceramic.

        Plus it's an auto with a better build quality & amazing lume.. Casio lume is ordinary if that matters to you. Old post here for links.

          • SadKen on 07/02/2022 - 23:35

            @TruckTrespass: I have both, the green sd1970 and black duro. Just bought the blue Duro to round out the collection. Both steeldive and duro's are great watches, but at $60, the Duro is outstanding value.

            Buy it and the go on AliExpress and get a couple of cheap straps for it to go on. Maybe a mesh strap for a fancy office diver, or a colourful nato to rock out with.

    • SpeedRunnerLink on 06/02/2022 - 12:32

      Sapphire is more scratch resistant.

      I'd stick with this if you are going to bang it around more often as mineral will be more impact resistant

      • garage sale on 07/02/2022 - 00:33

        i have a mixture of sapphire and mineral glass in my watches ….. only had a problem once when it scraped along a brick wall and i think the sapphire would also have scratched …. i’ve just ordered one of these and will make do with the mineral until it scratches which might be never …..
        it’s a $60 watch …… wear it, enjoy it, it might never scratch and if it does replace the glass or buy a new watch ……there are many watches in the $300+ price pint that just have mineral glass and it was an issue at that price they would come with sapphire …..

      It will be fine for that use unless you forget the crown out

    • garage sale on 07/02/2022 - 00:34

  • The Vat on 06/02/2022 - 12:57

    I have one of these - I know it's somewhat verboten to put a leather band on a dive watch but I put a Sydney Strap Co honey Daytona band on it (worth about the same as the watch) and it pairs up really nicely

    • Laziofogna on 06/02/2022 - 15:06

      It will be verboten when Rolex put one on a Submariner.

    • garage sale on 07/02/2022 - 01:28
      +1

      leather is more common than you might think on divers ….. i dive …..while on holidays , rest of the year it’s just a watch and leather feels nicer for some people …..i don’t like leather due to lack of durability compared to stainless , but it’s all about comfort and how you enjoy wearing the watch ….

      • The Vat on 07/02/2022 - 10:12

        Depends on the watch and as you say, intended usage. I tend to go silicon for dive style watches for comfort and weight but I have a Pepsi PADI Prospex I've kept on the stainless band because I think it suits it. Also means I don't have to do left arm weights that day.

    I have ordered this watch 3 times so far since November last year.

    2 times its gotten lost somewhere between amazon -> aupost, and third is looking like its following the same pattern.

    Amazon refunds me and says this is super rare, then i re-order.

    Auspost looks into it but doesnt care too much because amazon refund.

    Hopefully oneday i actually get it.

      They don't wear like a 44 mm watch, more like a 42 or so. My wrist is a touch under 7 inches/178 mm and it sits perfectly

    Same here:

    Unfortunately, a problem occurred during shipping and we had to cancel your delivery. The package is being returned, and we will issue a refund within 3 - 5 business days after the return is processed. We’re very sorry for the inconvenience.

    I wonder if the van crashed or they are just being sketchy

    • Forfiet on 16/02/2022 - 20:13

      That's a shame, for context mine was successfully delivered on Monday(It was a signed delivery, but left in a safe place instead- My property is luckily quite secure for this :) )

      Maybe it was a particular shipment that has had such issues, its a shame as this is a nice watch for the price and in a normally lit room the blue bezel/dial give a nearly black finish at times.

      Oh well good luck to you on getting a satisfactory solution…. :)

    Yep, go the same message. Lost in the ether and refunded. Don't really need the watch to be honest, but poor form that they they don't offer the option to reorder.
