Jody, as usual a very amusing yet informative review. I have a Casio Duro and I like it very much but the mod that you did really elevated it to a seriously classy watch. On KZbin there are many watch reviewers, some good and some are pretty lousy that they are pretty well jumping on the watch reviewer bandwagon with very little knowledge of horology. However, it’s obvious that you are a very keen watch enthusiast with a considerable knowledge and experience of the subject, and the Scottish gift of the gab doesn’t do any harm either which makes “Just One More Watch” stand head and shoulders above most, if not all of the other watch review channels. I take my well worn cowboy hat off to you sir and keep up the excellent work.

I'm happy with this cheap mod and I don't expect to do anything else to the watch head. Now I sort of want sapphire crystals on a couple other Casios I own, but I'd have to find the exact sizes. Thanks for this very well done instructional video!

The stock resin strap isn't half bad as it's similar to some of my G-Shocks, though I bet a jubilee bracelet would look fantastic and could almost pass for a Seiko diver.

Perfect watch to mod for newbies. It's a really good watch, it's popular, and it's inexpensive. Omega Planet Ocean bezel inserts fit perfectly, though I forget which size at the moment. Have a blue insert installed right now. Just don't try to remove the bezel to do it. The factory bracelet is a Planet Ocean similar style as well. Oil filled with a domed crystal looks good, too.

I added an Orange 'Planet Ocean' style bezel insert off eBay ( £15) + Sapphire Crystal with Blue AR coating from AliExpress (£17) and it has transformed a good lookng watch into one that looks just as nice as a $$$$ Rolex / Omega - so thx for the inspiration Jody. ....I'm sure Rolex must be getting worried ;)

I was going to say, the only mod this is missing to make it perfect is the hydro mod. That would negate any concerns of water resistance right there and give you a pretty bulletproof setup. I think I'll have to do this suite of mods on my blue Duro. I also wanted to do the sapphire crystal from crystal times, but $50 was more than I felt like was reasonable to spend on it. $18 is much more manageable. Thanks, Jody!

Casio used to sell different versions of the MDV-106 on bracelet, but no longer. That replacement bracelet however can be found on parts pages and eBay. It looks great, and fits the lug profile perfectly. But it's hollow link, very visible from the side. Apparently the "5kx" has the same profile as the MDV-106, and any bracelet for that watch fits this perfectly. Strapcode has a whole page for it. Solid end links, solid link, milled clasp, in multiple versions. If you truly want the upscale MDV-106, that plus the Sapphire does it.

I picked one up off of ebay for 20 bucks and wore it all summer long. And just an aside, most reviews I've seen put the lug to lug at 48mm not the 52mm you mentioned. I don't have calipers to verify with mine but it might be worth double checking.

Obviously it can then be removed/replaced if any scratches/cracks happen. I did that to my Bertucci and it is unnoticeable other than the fact that it actually seems to have reduced the glare.

Funny, I was looking at bracelets for the Duro just yesterday. It looks great on the strapcode bracelet with the endlinks (made for Seiko, but fits), but a $100 bracelet for a $50 dollar watch is a bit of a hard pill to swallow. Pacparts sells an OEM bracelet for about $18, but its a special order and takes about 3 weeks. Aliexpress appears be the way to go with this one. May I ask why you changed the clasp provided with the bracelet? Love the video, hope you feel better soon.

Goodness knows how I ended up here. Not even into expensive watches. But... I'm Scottish, like cool engineering, a bargain and anything alternative. Subscribed. Well done my countryman.

Just revisited this video a year after it was published. Put the Crystal Times domed sapphire in a gold bezel Duro and put it on a tropical strap. Turned out great. Worth every penny.

Anybody any idea what I’m doing wrong? Did all as suggested but replacing the crown doesn’t work. Keeps popping out as if it’s an open position. How do I close? Help!!

Hey Jodi, in the off chance you see this I wanted to say thanks for the information on the upgraded clasp. I just picked up two of them, one for an Orient Kamasu and one for a Seiko SPRE, since both had pressed clasps. Definitely a worthy upgrade for about $8 each.

Hey Jody thanks for keeping that orange pitcher in your back ground, we had one when I was young growing up in Adelaide, it reminds me of home, oh and your videos are great, thanks.

Did this same thing last night and it was easy and fun. I tried to order a cheap bracelet that was more to my liking but still in the low-cost direct-from-China price range and I just struck out on that one. It looked more substantial in the picture but it feels flimsy and I don't like it on the watch. I can see what's going to happen here. Now I'm going to have to go find something in the $60-$100 price range on Strapcode to make my upgraded $49 watch feel right... This is how it starts isn't it?

Hi Jody, I did my Duro upgrade mods last week, same bracelet but i did pay €20 for the sapphire, I did opt for the double dome with a blue anti reflective coating, i must say the blue coating does give the casio that little touch of class. Can't wait for the summer and some swimming in the sea. I did however silicon grease the seal so its well watertight now. Cheers, see you next review. oh, and get well soon.

Recently received my blue face Duro. It's just as beautiful as I hoped. I put it on a navy blue NATO and it splits days with my black face.

You inspired me to do my own mods. I have ordered a double domed sapphire crystal for my scratched up mineral crystal Citizen Nighthawk. $76 from Hong Kong but probably worth it for a watch worth $350.

Well I finally did it. Having chipped the mineral glass carrying steel on site, I got some domed sapphire and the tools/kit ( coulda bought 2 Duros for all the stuff) How nerve-wracking is the bit where you press the new glass in? But soo worth it. Toughest bit? Finding the crown release... It is so tiny it's basically invisible unless the crown is IN, so remember it's location, unscrew the crown, then aim for where you remember the 'lever' to have been. Incredibly satisfying. Now it's just the ultimate pound for pound watch on the planet. Bezel insert change next! Thanks for the great video Jody. Fantastic jumping off point for this new modder.

Although I knew it wasn't, I was disappointed when you popped the back not to see a movement. Lol. With the following this watch has, I think an automatic version with a clear case back would sell phenomenally!

One thing I would like to say is how incredibly accurate mine is. I know it's just a cheap miyota quartz in it but mine has currently lost 0.1 seconds in the two weeks I've been timing is. That would work out at less than 3 seconds a year. I think I was pretty bloody lucky with mine, though obviously the blistering heat in summer here in Madrid might upset that a bit. Even so I think I hit the jackpot
