This model has been out for a long time. I like the look of the black more then the white or gold. The reason the watch loses one star is because the band. It looks great, but the rubber will wear out and break in about a year. The replacement band that Casio offers looks close the orginal, but not exactly the same. I lost one of these, and another was stolen. So the fact that I am on my third is a statement to how much I love this watch. I have been wearing it since about 1993. 4 stars

I have had 3 of these watches over the years, but I finaly gave up on them. I LOVE the look, but they have 3 big drawbacks, First off, no light. The glow paint on the watch is pretty dim. Second, it goes through batteries pretty quick. When the battery gets low the hands stop moving but the digital part still works. First time that happened I thought the watch had malfunctioned. Third, the band comes off the watch! The pin that holds it on isn't robust enough. That is why my last one is on the bottom of the river right now. 2 stars

I've owned this model for about seven years and I think I'll buy another to keep on standby in case I break the original (I'm not gentle with my watches while working/playing).

Tough, pretty easy to set, good features, and classic "diver" style at a great price. What's not to like? Wouldn't mind having a light on the LCD, otherwise it is proven a great investment.

Battery lasts ~2 years with the alarm going off every day and watch band life is about the same (cracks develop after a while). No corrosion (duh, stainless steel) and good resistance to scratches on the crystal so far. 5 stars

This is a long-standing standard for a solidly designed well-priced diver's watch. I have owned this model of watch for several years. The only reason why I get a new one is because my old one gets too beat up from scratches and the like, but not because of any failure.

The mineral crystal is superior for resisting scratches and so much more quality than a cheap plastic type. The stainless steel case looks good and offers rugged protection for the internal components. I have never had a situation where water leaked into the internal part of the watch.

You get the best of both types of displays (analog and digital). I put the dual time function to use when I travel overseas and don't want to readjust the analog display.

This is a no-brainer if you are in the market for a diver's style watch. 5 stars

This is a Big watch for the price!
(44mm I believe)....You have to buy a vintage dive watch to find one this large..... I agree with the other reviewer about the strap.I lost a Casio just like this before @ the beach .I now have a "waterborne" dive-strap on my new one.....a one directional bezel & a screw-down crown would be nice on future models...Also be ready to be asked "What Time is it?" a lot when you wear it to the Beach ...;)
