I love that with the gold!

My now vintage ALT6000!

Nothing too exciting. The daily, for taking the associated knocks and bangs.

Gives me another excuse to post my recent AE1200 mod



MDV-107 also

The forged carbon Edifice.

It's much nicer in real life than I can ever capture in a photo.

I spotted that in one of the other threads. Very tasty.
Nice job

I also have the forged carbon Edifice, but I put it on a softer silicone strap.



And an Oceanus, which is lovely - slim, light, solar, titanium, radio link. Really good travelling watch too, as you can just switch time zones directly without going all the way around the minutes.

Oh, and not a watch, but my workshop clock. And styled to look like a watch.

Is this just the standard gold resin case on a Nato? Looks great

Also do you by chance remember where the strap is from?

There's a great bit of Youtube which neatly outlines why a cheap-as-chips Casio is just as accurate as any flashy chronometer from Switzerland. The total clip runs about 17 minutes and the quartz stuff starts about 5 minutes in. I was particularly interested to learn why the frequency is 32.768kHz and how that's converted into the one second tick. Which then prompted me to google how a stepper-motor works.

I don't think anyone with a "flashy chronometer from Switzerland" and even the smallest amount of knowledge on watches has ever disputed that Casio is just as accurate as the best Swiss time pieces. I don't think anyone buys a Swiss watch to simply tell the time. I have a couple but equally I have a couple of G-Shocks and my daily watch is an Apple watch.

I'm still a big fan of Casio as a brand, I particuarly like the F-91W but my wrists are far too large and it would look like I was wearing a child's watch

Thanks both. It's just a fairly cheap NATO, can't remember where from. Yep std gold case. It's my kayaking watch, as it's so light you can barely tell it's there.



P.S. Mr UK_Scat_Pack, I think in the OP your first two model names are switched around.

Oceanus! Best watch I own. Goes with literally everything. Quality in every respect.

Was this easy to Mod?
