Was interested in the watch until I heard the price, $500 AUD is about $338 USD. Here's what I can do with that money today on Amazon: - Solar watch: $34 Casio Tough Solar - Dress watch: $112 Orient Bambino Version IV - Dive watch: $106 Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster Diver - Field watch: $80 Seiko SNK series (803-809) Then I still got $6 leftover to buy a McDonald Happy Meal.

It seems more of a fashion watch at that point rather than a functional and usable watch.

A follow up: the blue metal square was on sale at a price so good that I couldn't pass up, so I got one. The STN display is very reasonable, legible in most situations, and for the times that it's not, there's backlight. I'm really impressed by this watch, it compares well with more expensive watches from Japan, Germany and Switzerland. The blue bezel is more eye catching than I expected, so it's not really a stealth watch. But I still love it.

I am a bit surprised that they don't offer these on their composite bracelets. IMO, Casio is missing the mark by not selling their various straps and bracelets at reasonable price point either directly or through their retail channels. This diving strap reminds me of what Seiko did with the upgraded straps on their new diving watches which look exactly like those on the SKX, but are softer and have a metal keeper.

I put it in a titanium laser etched chinese kit and it's a lot better, the band is heavier than the resin and the bezel is lighter than the black stainless bezel. The module is still heavier than most casio modules because of the screw on back of the case but the watch is now a lot more balanced and I enjoy wearing it much more. And it looks great like a real casio titanium band watch but with a positive display.

How is the negative display on this model? I have a much cheaper G Shock GW-M5610 and while the display is great head-on in well-lit conditions, at some angles and in darker areas it is almost unreadable without the backlight. The function buttons basically have to be pressed with one’s nail because they’re too small. Also, the timer on my watch very annoyingly does not display the present time when in countdown mode. Does this model have all the same problems? Surely at this price point, Casio must have improved that negative display.
