Larger than Amazon's description, excellent watch nonetheless
First off, I'm disappointed with Amazon's measurements. I was hoping to get a mid sized diver based off of Amazons measurements in the description but came out with a rather large watch. I will fix the sizes here for those curious.
1) The watch has a 45 mm case diameter NOT 40 mm! This makes a huge difference for those like me with small wrists.
2) The band it comes with tapers down to 20 mm, but at the spring bars the band width is 22 mm. So this watch actually has a 22 mm band width. This would not be a problem for me if I didn't already buy a 20 mm NATO strap based off of Amazon's poor description measurements. It's not really noticeable though unless you look closely so I don't plan on going through the bother of returning the strap.
Besides the watch being large on my wrist, it's an excellent value. The screw down crown, bezel, 200m water resistance, and steel construction give this watch a look and feel that it's worth a lot more than $36. It's for these reasons that I won't return it and why I gave it 5 stars. Casio did an excellent job, Amazon could do better with their description. If you're in the market for a large dive watch you don't care about beating up, go for this you won't regret it.
