The $50 Casio That's Harder To Buy Than A Rolex!

Ridiculous! Don't feed the beast.

@@JustOneMoreWatchI feel like most of your viewers just refuse to feed the beast lol. Thats why we come here Jody.

[@alfieakaronaldog]

It’s the polar opposite of broken isn’t it?

[@SingleTrackMined]

I think it's working perfectly. Anyone who wants to pay big bucks for the latest, trendiest is able to do so. Everyone else has no need to spend big to get great watches. This hobby is the perfect place for unfettered capitalism, imo. ymmv. Cheers!

[@rbmwiv]

My guess with Casio’s alignment is they have been doing this for so long they have obviously found a way to quickly and accurately place the hands on the movement. I can guarantee that some engineer spent a lot of time figuring out the solution to perfect hand alignment.

[@sample3279]

Not always so perfect, I've got a Casio Classic that misses half of the markers.

[@bogrot69]

A fun little watch . According to Casio, the case is plated brass, to be honest, I'm not sure I'd want to pay 50 dollars for one, let alone 200 plus. People are getting a bit ridiculous over these goofy trends, 🤣

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

Aye, brass like an old Vostok! Not for $266, thanks very much.

[@seanriffle6324]

Agreed. It's a good looking dial and that's the sell, not much besides that.

[@mitchellsmith1593]

$40 watch

[@gerechoppers]

I purchased the black version of this watch about 6 months ago. I think I paid around $35.00 off of Amazon here in the US. I had no idea they made it in Tiffany Blue at the time, but I think I would have purchased the black one anyway. I’m pretty much over the Tiffany blue craze. It is a decent watch….at the $35.00 I paid for mine. Great video.

[@mrfilipian]

Casio has never disappointed... Always hitting the right boxes.. A tradition of Japanese products.. But like you said, the Tiffany dials are driving people crazy 🤪 hence the USD 260 instead of 80..!!its amazing what colors can do to a watch. The underside of the watch betrays the front In my opinion!! They sh'd have done more... At USD 80 I will buy, nothing more

[@glennbeadshaw727]

Never mind the watch I have a really beautiful Ford pickup truck I'd like to sell you for 99,999... regular retail 56,000 but I have a special one-time markup policy... you will buy it and you will love paying extra for it... it'll make you feel special

[@mecartsrl1674]

Spent 50 euros (52 dollars) for it! What a steal

[@herbcraven7146]

A beautiful watch for the retail price. I do love the accuracy of Casios when it comes to hitting their indices.

[@scottlauren3145]

Loving this earlier than usual upload schedule. Also, that Citizen from yesterdays video, that watch is simply gorgeous. Plus the high accuracy quartz, you NEVER have to set the time. It's the definition of set it and forget it. Also kind of reminded be of a Seiko SARB035 on steroids. Lots of steroids. Take care, my friend.

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

Thanks for tuning in, Scott!

[@JuanM.Hernandez]

The deal breaker for me is that it is not a stainless steel case. That means the plating will wear off eventually, especially with scratches.

[@limelite3238]

It's brass plated

[@brianmsahin]

I got excited for a moment! I checked my local Turkish website and found Casio MTP-XXXX however they were just with white, silver and black dial and were normally priced. No Tiffany. Great to see the seconds hand hitting every marker, so does my Mudmaster GG-1000, but my Tissot PRX also hits NO markers!

[@markuslappalainen7712]

Same thing in Finland blue , black, green you name it it's on stock, Tiffany tho not a single one

[@NoelKunz]

Saw one in the display case at JCPENNEY and I just had to have it. Paid MSRP but I don't care, I love it! It's hard enough to find online for under $200, let alone in person and for MSRP. I just wanted it.

[@Redcrown77]

I love Casio episodes!!! Keep them coming:)

@@JustOneMoreWatch "That's the last Casio for me" -- said no one ever. 😂

[@GregJGreen]

I'm going to buy one, after they become readily available. Bought a Marlin last month, never thought I'd be enamored by a $50 watch, it's an incredible timepiece for the price. I'll be modding it soon.

[@gandhabba69]

We need a casio duro with 40mm

[@JamesDavidWalley]

This brings back fond memories of the 1980s, when practically every mass-market watch company had their own Datejust clone with a quartz movement. I had a run of several of them, ranging from Seiko/Pulsar to Gruen. I noticed that, over the last couple of decades, that model had practically vanished from the low-cost market. Nice to see it back, although I must admit I'm puzzled by the appeal of "Tiffany" dials nowadays. To my mind, the green dial looks much nicer. But, if it’s a Tiffany Datejust lookalike you must have, this is as good an option as any, assuming they ever become available at MSRP.

[@pauldelarzac615]

Impressive to see the second hand nail each second mark on the chapter ring. Watches worth x10 don’t always nail that.

[@gz7587]

Thank you so much for reviewing a very affordable quartz watch in the 36 - 40 mm size range! I would love to see more of this type of review, for casual and most especially dive style time pieces.

[@Wulfsmasher]

Perks of living in a small town, popped by the mall yesterday and there was one of these beauts in the display windows of the jewelry store. Super happy with my purchase, but yeah, it looks like a 50 dollar watch, don't pay over retail for it.

[@armandr1613]

I must say these 1am uploads are much more accommodating.

2784 movement is in Casio Duros too. It’s a $Aud 60-90 watch at best.

[@jozsefizsak]

Nice review. I have a similar bracelet from the MDV-106D. It's less than wonderful. A lot less, if I'm to be honest but it should stand up to gentle use on a watch like this just fine.

[@WatchfulWizard]

I bought mine back in December for $45 US. It was imported from Spain. I replaced the bracelet with a nice mesh. It also looks great on a light gray alligator.

[@tommychuckles7199]

Mine arrived today.I forgot I’d ordered it last February. Cheap and nasty,I love it!

[@chronos-calculus]

I have lucked out a couple of times in the past year where I have purchased a watch, then only a few days after, the price doubled and was out of stock for an insane amount of time. The watches were far from luxury. They were nice watches and I really like them, but I never understood the sudden price jump or lack of availability. It is a little tempting to sell them for a profit, but that's not why I bought the watches! I buy them to wear and enjoy! The market is so confusing at times!

[@zoomtutor2925]

Any examples of the ones you got?

[@50IntemperateLions]

I just bought one from England coming into Australia for $170AUD, pricey but what I want, it is what it is

[@kovacdavid]

I reckon this - for its market price - is actually the perfect tiffany blue watch: a cheap fun watch for a couple of summer weeks. You can then store it, pick it up after a year and it will still work just fine. I’d buy one, if it was available.

[@cornelius6616]

I was planning on buying this Casio when it first debuted to check off a box in my watch collection, but I waited because I thought I’d get the Mint 40mm Tissot PRX. I ended up getting the silver-gold dial PRX instead, and the Casio was already popular and sold out only 2 weeks later. You snooze you lose 😅

[@benno_360]

I’ll trade you my silver/gold MTP for your PRX 😆. Mint condition

[@hamfrosting502]

I found one at jcpenny for retail, the department stores seem to have them in stock

[@SomeGuyNamedTex]

I got mine at a JC Penney too. It was in the back of the case behind everything else like someone was trying to hide it.

[@benno_360]

Weird. I found my silver/ gold version today and tried it on and decided to get it working again with a battery. Bought it second hand/ brand new with stickers for $30. Ended up liking how it looked on me so much that I put my Seiko 5 sports up for sale.

[@mrpetit2]

I love the video title 🤣👍 It's clear this is a sub $100 watch and the current market with it's bonkers pricing is ruled by people that have a serious FOMO syndrome😁

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

Fomo at both ends of the market 🤦🤷

[@danielleclare2938]

For the accessory fans these are great. For watch fans they are just ok. Depends on your needs but someone could have a bunch of these 'nice looking' cheapies in different colors and love it. I like wind up stuff but if you are not a watch g.. person then convenience makes these a buy as well.

This was really difficult to find luckily i got in a jewellery show in UK and that too last one. It is really difficult to get one

[@bt3750]

Seiko (among others) is guilty of this too. If you look at a particular watch model, a better looking colorway can be hundreds of dollars more than a more standard color, for literally the exact same movement and materials. Also, I watched a Tag Heuer review by Random Rob. That 2000 USD watch didn't hit the markers and seemed to have more bounce in the seconds hand.

[@donulldh4785]

Just paid $60 about 15 minutes ago at a department store. Only Casio in the Citizen case. Even the sales associate did not know where it came from

[@HighOnWheelsMTB]

I managed to snag one right when they released for only 50 bucks! It’s not as comfortable as my edifice EFR but the dial is lovely 👌🏽

[@masudashizue777]

I had a similar Casio before with a chrome case (not stainless steel), and my perspiration ate right through the chrome.

[@NicholasSadlier]

Saw tiffany and green ones sitting in my local H Samuel window - priced £43. TBH I was underwhelmed by them in the flesh... even at that price. You have to understand that the Irish are almost as stingy as the Scottish lol. And my tiffany Pagani OP automatic is of much higher quality anyway.... for just a few Pounds more.

[@rorybannon]

I was actually looking for this watch on eBay and shocked to see people reselling for $150+ American. I thought the same thing, it’s a cheap casio still why are people valuing it this much just because of the dial color. It looks nice but there are so many better options in this range

[@Zsweeze]

Nah there pretty much isnt

[@ShyamKrishnanSuresh]

I was wondering when you were going to review this. It's all the rage currently

[@JustOneMoreWatch]

It has been sitting on a shelf since before Christmas! Didn't realise that it had gone viral. Ha!

[@stevenwymor1398]

As far as hitting the markers goes…Casio is making their own movements and putting them in their own watches. Bertucci use off the shelf Miyota and/or Ronda movements. I replaced a Ronda in a friends Bertucci for I think $11 if memory serves. They aren’t the highest quality movements. I did go to the trouble of aligning the seconds hand, but it still only managed to hit about half the markers. I’m assuming the Casio tolerances are higher compared to the Miyota and Ronda.

[@MisterHughes]

There's a white-dialled one with Arabic numerals for £30 quid on UK Amazon, with a Tiffany dial people are "offering" them for £203. You're getting close to the price of a Tiffany dial quartz Tissot PRX at that.

[@Azeria]

wow the MTP-1302PD-2A2VEF? catchy name that

[@petros311]

Nice review! the only bad thing for this watch its the chrome plated case! on the back its writte stainless steel case back, it means chrome plated case, thats not good if its your everyday watch especially if you sweat often!

[@thereissomecoolstuff]

In the Seattle area they are available at Fred Meyer jewelers. I love mine. At this price you don’t mind banging around.

[@MikeSmith-er1qs]

Glad you didn’t jump on the hype train. Great and realistic review.

[@Theo-ul8qm]

This might be nitpicking, but that is not what people typically mean when they say 'Tiffany dial'. The phrase is usually used to describe a dial that is double signed - once by the manufacturer and once by Tiffany. This Casio has a 'Tiffany blue' dial - as in the color associated with Tiffany & Co. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if it's a slightly different shade, because I'd imagine Tiffany trademarked that color so I don't think Casio can use the exact one. Don't know this for a fact though.

[@Kwantummeekanniks]

80 euro Tiffany blue with rose gold accents/two tone bracelet available at Zalando here in the Netherlands.

[@defender1006]

LOL, I didn't/don't want the 'Tiffany' blue dial version, I bought the green dialed version and I just love it. Yes it's a good/great watch for the money, but don't pay the outrageous prices that many on line retailers are demanding for these watches. At the end of the day it's a Casio and will do what it does on the tin, etc?!

[@Nachtgedicht]

About 3 years ago or so Casio released the MTS-100 which retailed for 50 quid, featuring sapphire crystal, a not certified, but very sharply running quartz movement (mine does +2s per month) and, of course, rode links etc., but at least the clasp has a double pusher. And it's just stunningly beautiful. Bought it the day it was released, and if I correctly remember, it was out of stock after 2 days :D

[@RavenWindrunner]

I can understand a bit more for a specific popular colourway but these massive hikes are pretty nuts.

[@LauncestonLad]

Bought one a couple of months ago from Spain for $50. I didn't love it..... but my wife does. She wears it now on a white leather strap.

[@Stanjara]

Stainless steel back means it's a brass case. That's why the watch is $50. This is not a long lasting watch and will probably, depending of how much you wear it, have yellowed edges and chips before that battery change.

[@P_Ezi]

That is a fairly thorough review for "just an unboxing video." Quartz without solar power is a pass from me even at $60. Datejust design also does nothing for me. I like the green dial, but don't like the datejust bezel.

[@bolchert]

Where are all those Tiffany dials? I have never seen one worn in public...

[@peach8685]

[@TenTenLion]

didn't tiffany trademark this color ??

[@loopbloke]

It is sold out every where. and Casio perfected the color. A month back it was selling for $200+ on ebay and that's why third party sellers charge $275. Not sure if casio will ever make it again. What makes it special is the color of the dial itself, As in Casio perfected it way better than Tissot PRX, Citizen Tsyosa, and many others who came out with so called "tiffany blue". Ice blue/Light blue/teal/ : NONE of those are tiffany blue. I see a lot of youtubers come out giving lectures and options on blue shade watches but the market definitely DO NOT want them. Even Tiffany watches these days has a shiny finish and not the raw Patek/Rolex version of the dial color.

[@corail53]

Cheap watch collecting has gotten stupid in the past few years. I sort of blame the youtubers for hyping them up and then causing the flippers to make the prices skyrocket in the used markets.

[@glennbeadshaw727]

In Canada you're lucky if you can find a watch for sale at a store I mean any watch every time you want a certain model it's always unavailable because the guy in charge of buying watches who works at the store doesn't really know what's popular..... there's no way you're going to see this sitting in the Walmart with a $69 price tag on it

[@evagorasm]

Bought it recently from an online shop in Greece. 76 euros including delivery.

Yet to see anyone actually wearing a tiffany blue dial watch in the wild, so I think it is just the mass of budget collectors doing their thing and adding a 75th watch to their 'rotation'.

[@Zephyrdaze1819]
