Perfect Casio Duro Bracelet (It Does Fit!)
This is an excellent enhancement to the Casio MDV106. Although installation is a little tricky, the bracelet DOES FIT the Casio Duro.The trick is to start one end of the spring bar by placing it directly into the spring bar hole and then rock the end link into the lugs. Then depress the extended spring bar and push the end link fully into place. At this point, you’ll have trouble getting the unseated end of the spring bar to seat into its hole. So use a small screw driver, pushpin or the provided spring bar tool to gently push the unseated towards the case so it will align with its hole. A couple nudges using this method and the spring bar will eventually align and seat into its hole. Then use the provided spring bar tool to press each end of the spring bar outward to ensure it is fully seated and you’re done. Although this sounds tricky, it really itsn’t difficult and can be done in minutes.Anyway, if you can follow the above guide, this bracelet will be an excellent addition to your watch. It’s very well made for the money. Solid links throughout, good weight and tolerances and nice finishing. The clasp is also pretty solid for the money. Overall a perfect complement to the Casio Duro, especially if you have the two tone black and gold Duro, since two tone bracelets are hard to find for this model.Anyway, give it a shot and you’ll be glad you did.

Good value and style!
This jubilee style is a favorite watch band design of mine. I my opinion, it's a very good looking replacement for the worn, original leather band on my watch. Reasonable price with necessary tools and spare pins included and the curved end caps give a finished appearance instead of the straight ends that leave a gap between the band and case. Plenty of removable links and 3 micro adjustment slots for a perfect fit. Each wrist watch is different and if you have experience and patience, this band swap can be done at home. Installing with the curved ends can be challenging. I found the caps should be lined up onto the watch case as the pins are pressed into locking position from the case back. If you're not familiar with this work, maybe a jeweler is a better choice. The results are worth the effort either way.

Nice Band - Attaching To Watch Is Tedious
For the money, this is an excellent Jubilee band. My watch is the Casio Duro diver watch. It is really hard to get the curved ends to attach. The spring bar tips are really hard to get in to the holes. Other watches may be just fine.Some people say that you need to get one pin into the hole, then you can maneuver the second one in. Well, I found that the angle to get the first pin in then risks scratching the case of the watch when you try to get the second one in from that tilted angle. (I am adding photos that show the scrapes on my case from trying that.) The curved ends edges are really sharp and should have been properly buffed. But it is an inexpensive band after all.I found what works best for me and the safest for the watch is to just place the curved end into the case like normal with the spring bar in it and lined up to the pin holes. The spring bars ends will be laying above them on the case. Now, take the tool and press one sides pin in to allow it to drop towards the hole. It will likely not go in the hole yet, but keep it down there and go ahead and press in the pin on the other side to get that sides spring bar tip down in the case as well. Now carefully, slowly move it around so that you can get one pin to drop in it's hole. Then do the same with the other side, always being careful to keep the tip down in there so it doesn't come up and extend out.One thing that really bothers me, is that the notch they have to access the pin tip with the tool is too small and it takes a lot of patients to get the pins in (and out). Once you get this done, you will likely not want to take it off. If you are someone with a lot of bands with quick release and like to swap often, this may not be the band for you.Another thing is that the spring bars that they include have less girth than the Casio spring bars from my watch. These thin bars are kinda sloppy inside the the curved end piece and may make it harder to get the tips into the holes. I used the Casio ends. Luckily they slid through okay and I could steer them to the hole easier.Sizing is also a bit tough. Take your time and a magnifier may be useful for this, as well as the attachment process.I also bought the silver and gold version for my gilded Duro. I think it is quite good looking for the money.
