Genuine Factory Stainless Steel Bracelet for the Casio Duro (Pros, Cons, Installation & Adjustment)

[@masudashizue777]

Some of my older Duros came with bracelets. I bought those factory bracelets for the ones that came with the resin band. I now own at least a half dozen Duros. I bought so many thinking that it might be discontinued soon. But they never were.

[@deustroyer]

The mdv-106 were, now, only mdv-107 with no Marlin. I think some that day, they will increase their value. Some places the 106 are already the double of the price of 107. Hold on those watches!

Should I purchase the all black or pepsi on metal bracelet? On the fence and can't make up my mind. Thanks.

Great detailed video and appreciate you providing bracelet link! I just picked up the blk/gold and now need the blue after watching this!

[@chrisscanlan8819]

I picked up the bracelet and use it on my black duro. Love it! Thanks again. P.S. I now have 4 Duros and need the green next : )

[@alister2886]

this is exactly what I constructed with a mdv106 all blue from usa and the original bracelet from UK (that was the fastest combination here in spain, but oh well.) Expensive in terms of taxes, but I love it.

[@mikeyKnows_]

What bracelet did you get, was it solid steel or bent sheet metal?

[@alister2886]

@@mikeyKnows_ the original one from Casio. The one and only official bracelet for this watch.

[@jhantushankar]

Quite detailed and comprehensive

[@Dj-Mioch.]

Long Island watch co. made the best bracelet for Duro. They have oyster and jubilee style bracelets. Milled clasp and more microadjustment holes.

[@kenokeno00]

.....your con's are the same as I found....but all n all not too shabby.....for casio..!!.....

[@MyEnemy]

I wonder why Casio stopped making the one that came with a steel bracelet? So many other of their dive-style watches have one.

[@pddejager1]

I bought myself a Duro for Xmas and I hated the silicone band. I looked for something like this and wasn't able to find one. I would up going with a $35 Amazon Steel jubilee bracelet. I would have liked to have done this but could not find one of these bracelets. I take this back - yours is folded stamped stainless steel... I am glad I went with the solid links.

Great vid. Getting one!

[@Chief1063]

I've seen other KZbinrs using special pliers, brad nails, needle nose pliers, etc. to remove those links. None of them did it as easily as you and they scuffed or scratched their watches one way or another. Excellent work and video. 👍🏽

[@watchncarry9593]

Thanks. Ive had so much practice adjusting the bracelet for the Casio World Time Royale (as1200), that by now, this one was fairly straightforward. That being said, my first 2 bracelet adjistments on the AE1200 were horrendous lol, and i definitely scracthed it up.

i live in Singapore. i got my mdv106 the "pepsi" one from amazon during black friday in the year of our lord 2024. it's the metal bracelet. when i went down to the casio service center to have it resized, they mentioned that amazon isnt their retailer, which means two things,. either they would reject it for their own safety or they would accept and the customer would need to pay for the service. the lady was in a giving mood since it's the season, accepted my watch to resize, the uncle inside said i'd have to take out 4 notches/links and it's the max he take out. he went back in and did what he said he would do. while the fit is not absolutely perfect, i'm one of those that like their watches slightly loose anyway. AND the lady didnt charge me for the service on top of taking in a watch that wasnt on their retailer list.

[@AwaisMahmood57]

I hope they bring back the MDV-106D back?

[@djinconroe]

Useful video. It's just not an option for me. I can't stand a pressed link bracelet. I ordered one from Aliexpress that has solid links. The hollow ends are maybe not quite where these are (the openings are just too big in my opinion) but it's a decent compromise. Ultimately I think I'm headed for a NATO for this thing.

[@francohic]

Whats the difference between solid links and pressed links?

[@djinconroe]

@@francohic In this video he calls them "folded links" but I've always heard them called pressed links. Each individual link is made of strips of metal rolled on itself to make a link but when you look at the sides of the links you can see they aren't a single solid piece of metal. Island Watch is selling Casio Duro bracelets that are about twice this in terms of price but they are amazing quality. I've got those on all my Duro's now. Here's a link to their video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYPYm5R3ideAgLcsi=ARxXqlMCE3CaWUtC

[@francohic]

@@djinconroe ok, thanks for the answer. Since you mentioned that cant stand them, I thought it was a comfort issue.

[@jozsefizsak]

Very informative! I found the 106D mentioned on the web and ordered that same bracelet some time ago. While I think it's too nice to be a beater watch, I have inadvertently bashed a couple of links so I can testify that this is definitely not the most rugged bracelet out there. The edges showing its sheet metal construction are my least favorite aspect but I agree that it's worth buying if you want value and fit. Plus, it does look good.

[@chrisscanlan8819]

Do you know if the locking clasp can be removed for an better one? I don't see how to remove one of the pins.

[@rebel4721]

[@tomasinacovell4293]

Crap just for the shortened stem-tube treading, it will wear out the crown threading and fail in time, plus it's not going to seal because it can't compress against the crown's own seal.
