MQ24 Series | Quartz Analog Watch for Men | Water Resistant | Resin Case | Resin Band | Resin Glass | Three Hand Analog (HR, Min, SEC) | Classic Casio Design | 3 Year Battery

Okay, here's my take. First off, it keeps excellent time, and is a pleasant looking watch. Yes, I wish the watch were about 5mm larger. That being said, I still like it, and, yes, as a Navy Diver I have several large, heavy wathces. Sometimes I like riding my V-twin, other times I like hopping on my Burgman 400 scooter, if you get what I mean. This watch is one of a few analog watches with military time. Though small, it does not look like a girls watch as some have stated. There is no way you can look at the military time, and think it looks like a girls watch. I don't find the band to be cheap, though it is thin and flexible, which may be confused with cheap, as some have also stated. The face is easily scratched, and I already did, though in my line of work I have also marred glass faces before as well. The measurements are deceiving, whether intentional or not. Stated case size = 37.5 mm. Outside case= 34mm (36mm if you include the crown, which I'm sure they do). Actual Face=29mm, measured with a Starrett Micrometer. The bottom line: It's a light, and comfortable watch. If you can live with the size, it's an excellent choice for the price. Because of the military (24 hr) time, I would buy it again. I actually did purchase another one for my grandson to learn military time, as his Dad is in the Coast Guard. It also has the 12 hr time markings on the inside of the 24 hr markings, albeit a little smaller. This makes it a perfect watch for someone to learn Military time.

Perfect watch! Cheap, great aesthetic, keeps time!

Good looking watch, if you have a small wrist, this is the watch that you should get.

For the money, it's really hard to beat Casio watches. I now own several, including this one, which I bought mostly because I liked the unusual, yellow-colored watch face. Actually, it looks more like antique white to me, which matches nicely with the clean numbers on the face, combining to give a pleasant, subtly vintage look to the watch. The case measures approximately 1 7/16" across at the crown, which makes it just a bit smaller than I like, but this is in no way a fault of the watch; if you prefer watches with smaller cases, this will work perfectly for you. I also noticed that the band seemed a bit small. It barely fit my wrist, and I'm an average-size guy at 6'tall and 175lbs. I suspect it was sized for smaller people, and would work equally well for men as for women. The watch keeps excellent time, as is usual for Casio watches, and the dial is clean and uncluttered, with not even a date window to complicate things. The overall weight is extremely light, being made largely of plastic, though I have not found this to compromise toughness or durability on Casio watches in the past. They just plain work, and work well. For the very modest price - around $10 - it's very hard to beat these watches, as long as they fit your wrist.

I have a pretty small wrist and i was looking for a watch that wasn't too big or too small, honestly best decision was to get this one

I was looking for a reliable yet inexpensive watch. I settled on the 3 Casio watches that look like this and chose this one of the three. There's the white faced, the black faced, and this one is the yellow faced w/24 hour numbering. (some pictures of this are over exposed. The face is what I'd call a yellowish wheat color. Quite nice.) All three likely have the same internal mechanism. My watch was unexpectedly light in weight which is a huge bonus in my book. The band was cheap as hell, but I chose the "Watch Band Genuine Leather 16mm Black Classical Vegetable oil treated durable double stitched and padded with gold plated buckle" sold by Watchmaterial here on Amazon. Now I have a nice watch that looks like $1-200 bucks, and I'm out $20. So, buy one of these el cheapo Casio watches, buy a 16mm (width) watch band to replace the really cheap band Casio sells with these, and you'll look like $1-200 also. Plus, if you damage it or drop it in the toilet, just spend another $10. I'm considering buying the black one next. I might like that better. My educated guess is that I'll get 5 years out of this one and will likely retire it when the cheap crystal gets too scratched. I give this product Three Thumbs Up!!! 3-14-12 -- Edit to add: This watch keeps virtually perfect time. Only my cell phone, ipod, and my computer, which are all synched constantly, do a better job. It's within seconds of the computer time when I adjust it twice a year for the time changes. The "crystal" is becoming moderately scratched so I thought I'd buy another watch. Quite likely yours will suffer premature battery failure as mine did, but it's pretty inexpensive to buy 2 watch batteries on Amazon for a couple of bucks. When I buy my second watch I'll probably just put that second fresh battery in it and it should be good for 3+ years. Good deal? You bet.

Works ok, looks ok, but came just wrapped in a piece of clear celluloid like material, and was running. In past, when I've bought these kinda cheapie, but reliable Casio's, they were often in some kind of box with a display thing...and did not run until activated by pulling some strip or pushing button. Wondering if this was a customer return or just to shave on shipping. Seemed odd. These things are good for throwaways, casual use, etc....they are cheap, but good....but those button cell batts cost a bit these days now, and one might as well just rebuy whole watch when batts go dead.(Usually, batt life is kind of long in LCD type watches, but these, if good, new etc may push a year....buy the way, I do NOT think they are anti magnetic, since anytime I use these near my PC, the time is off somewhat....otherwise, no problem. So, and really, I'd llke to know, are these just now wrapped in a small piece of clear thin celluloid like plastic as S.O.P. or did I get a recycled one. Please advise PS: as an edit, or follow up....I noticed some user/s received item with dead battery. Now, the watch is in the $10 range, and is truly great for the money...but if the battery is bad, it may indicate one or more of following: could be a customer return or refurbished, was subjected to excessive heat before getting to you, maybe stayed long time in storage areas. Around my way, these batts go between $2 to over $5 in stores. You can of course order on line for less maybe, but add shipping or min order amn't or must buy multi packs. (You need one.) Careful if you change battery yourself...Easy to do, but it can be tough to avoid ruining or breaking the gasket which makes it water resistant. The latter feature not only for swimming, but routine "stuff" like washing dishes, whatever. These batts have gone up in price, are getting harder to find, fresh. (Competition is timekeeping ability from cell phones.) But if a button cell batt is gonna cost a third to half of a new watch, and I may risk ruining water resistant gasket, I just may store it for spare parts, and buy another watch for ten dollars. This is why I brought up packaging issue...if it is packed differently, and is running when you receive it, where has it been? Stored? Used? What? If you get one and must spend 4-5 bucks for a battery, if you can find (and be warned that dollar store generics may already be corroding, and physical size tends to be iffy, usually heightwise I notice)..so, are you getting a bargain? When item is bought or arrives, be aware of these things. Oh, if you've changed the batt, and were successful, still be careful of water...you may have altered position or have broken water resistant gasket in the process, unknowingly sometimes. I've used these watches for years, ..decent no frills watch. But, batts can be a problem nowadays, and that gasket is a bit delicate. Often, and sadly perhaps, I consider this type watch a throwaway item. Would like it to work a year though on battery cell supplied already installed.

I bought this watch because the one I bought a year ago, same model but with a white face, got lost. The day after the new watch arrived, lo and behold, my wife found the first watch in the bottom of the dryer, having gone through the wash in a jeans pocket. It was still working fine, even after a drubbing and a baking. These are very inexpensive watches but of high quality. They are durable, "water resistant", and apparently heat resistant as well. They keep accurate time, and the battery may last a long time, reportedly about 5-6 years, since there's no light to waste your electrons. Kinda hard to see the time in the dark because there is no luminescent dial or hands. but hey, it only cost $9 and it got here in two days! I also like that they are very light weight, and the strap, although plastic, is relatively soft, flexible and comfortable. Note that the watch is pretty small compared to most of the other clunky monsters you see out there, and if you have big burly hands and wrists, it may seem a bit too small.

Lo pude encontrar por un precio muy bajo y la verdad es que cumplez la pila va como nueva y es cómodo.

Aldığım hafta içindeki saniyesi koptu ardından da durdu ve bir daha çalışmadı.Casio ya yakışmadı

L'ho acquistato come "orologio da tutti i giorni" e funziona molto bene, il cinturino non si sporca e mi sembra piuttosto solido. Carina la grafica del quadrante, ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo.

Well made and the most accurate watch I own. Loses only a few seconds a month. Fits well, but not for large forearms. It is a small watch.

Been looking for this specific MQ24. It’s finally here and I love every single thing about it. If you’re planning to get this, ensure that you like smaller sized watch. My wrist size should be average I think and it still fits nicely. The watch also came with everything including the box although it wasn’t as a box which I don’t really mind as it’s going to my case. For the sellers, I wish go-en with you and your business! Would buy from them again for sure :)
