    These were meant to be released without the marlin logo according to Jody's world exclusive review but as you can see they have it. Confirmed in this review.

    • Ebaygiftcards on 25/02/2022 - 11:44

      With the marlin logo, they should’ve nicknamed it Casio Duro Aquaman

        Or the Marlin Brando.

    great watch, its better IRL, serious dive quality, has to be the best quartz analogue of all time, there - its been said.

    • [Deactivated] on 26/02/2022 - 06:15

      If I was actually going to dive, I would trust a $100 quartz over a $10000 mechanical watch.

      • poohduck on 26/02/2022 - 10:40

        I prefer quartz myself, but other than the quartz action vs mechanical action consideration all things should be equal for dive watches. It isn't the mechanism that determines whether it can handle depth or not, it's the casing. The casing doesn't care what's inside. The one exception are those auto watches where the action is visible from the rear - those rear crystals seem to be the weak point when pressure testing. If you're diving (I imagine this is a small percentage of folk who own divers), I'd avoid those types of watches. But then if I was diving I'd get an iso certified watch - I got one of these from a watchnerd deal a few years ago under au$200! There are just as many iso certifiend autos too though https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B016R90VBK/ref=twister_B09NLNHF…

      Yeah that's because when Batman is having a day off he likes to go fishing for marlin.

      They could at least have the batman logo instead of that marlin logo.

      This is the lowest price I have seen for the new Batman model. Backed up by Camel.

      If you just want the cheapest then currently blue is $78.40.

        Identical? Not quite. Good for $150 though!

      • jqsportsau on 25/02/2022 - 22:40

        pagani design? more like a pagani copy, lol

        • striker5950 on 25/02/2022 - 23:07

          its a homage watch, look up the definition of a homage watch, its definitely much better than this tho, better movement and better finish. i can say this as i have both. and older version of this with the fish on it and the pagani one.

    • poohduck on 26/02/2022 - 10:41

      it isn't a GMT

    • WatchNerd on 25/02/2022 - 13:09

      Personally I would wait for the black Casio Duro to drop in price if you want a cheap black face quartz Casio watch in this price bracket. Old post here.

    • Fresh TNs Lad on 25/02/2022 - 13:30

      This a phenomenal quartz watch for under $100, and there are plenty of reviews attesting that :)

  • Grok on 25/02/2022 - 12:41

    Nice watch, nice price but once you go Eco-Drive, you can’t go back to batteries.

    • poohduck on 26/02/2022 - 10:44

      Hopefully with an eco drive the battery should last longer. I still have a 12 year old 5600 that is on it's original battery, and it isn't eco drive.

  • ShouldIBuyIt on 25/02/2022 - 13:13

    How much would it cost to service the watch/test waterproofing once the battery dies?
    Also what's the battery life like ?

    • ShouldIBuyIt on 25/02/2022 - 13:21

      On that note, anyone can recommend a place to get battery replacement in Melbourne CBD? And an idea of cost?

    • Cordova on 25/02/2022 - 13:31
      +1

      Battery life seems to be 3 years, at least that's what I've read.

    • Deadalready on 25/02/2022 - 15:02
      +2

      On a watch this cheap, you're basically paying the whole price of the watch and more to service, replace the battery and pressure test. Servicing and pressure testing are expensive, individually more expensive than the price of a watch.

      Long story short, apart from replacing the battery (which is easy to do yourself) you wouldn't pressure or service a watch this cheap. It's literally cheaper to buy a new watch.

  • Cordova on 25/02/2022 - 13:34

    I've already got the Gold and also the Blue version on the way, do I collect the entire set?

    • ShouldIBuyIt on 25/02/2022 - 13:39
      +3

      Oh Yes.

      • Cordova on 25/02/2022 - 13:42
        +3

        But I'd need the arms of a Hindu God to wear them all.

    • Deadalready on 25/02/2022 - 15:04

      No, if you can't/don't wear them they're not much use are they? Besides if you're doing it just for the sake of collecting then collect something that's worth something or a little harder to find.

      But that's just my thought on it. I'm actively keeping my collecting as small as possible and only getting watches I love (and wear) with different watches plus bands so I can wear them in different situations.

      Its just a cash grab riding on the coat tails of the newly released batman movie.

      They could have at least replaced the marlin emblem with the batman logo.

        Casio have nothing to do with the nickname as with most nicknames for watches. Explained here.

      It refers to the colour of the bezel, blue and black is Batman, red and blue is Pepsi. Not sure if there are names for other colour combinations.

      I get your point and for watch enthusiast with minimum criteria they wouldn't look at this. But for many the thought of spending thousands or 10's of thousands is ridiculous and this works nicely for them.
      Hence why I appreciate watchnerds input. He is always about getting good watch quality for cheap.
      My median watch purchase is around 2k where most expensive is a $4600 longines spirit and cheapest is citizen eco drive for $150. There is always a place for cheap good watches as a daily beater
