The metal strap and the blue glass makes it even look more premium. Definitely worth the upgrade

[NYGuy]

A GenZer gets an analog watch and does not know how to use it. Funny!

[garycasey]

Im very surprised that you went to the hassle of replacing the crystal and didn't use sapphire

[GOLLUM]

just bought this watch def upgrading the glass to saphire

[albertwugamedev]

Really like this format. Straightforward and simple with a bit of humor. ❤ Tired of all the macro shots and pretentious nonsense from the majority of the Youtubers out there.

[mattkinsella]

I'm glad you highlighted some digital vs analogue points because I have been into watches for over 30 years and I've come full circle back to digital watches because of those reasons. I wear a digital Casio every day and I love them. I have some fairly expensive automatic analogue watches which I wear occasionally but the basic Casios and G-shocks are easy to throw on and use reliably, all day, every day.

[yambo]

Comparing an analog watch to a digital is not a fair comparison, things you list as negatives on the analog have always been true of most all analogs, but sometimes you want the look of an analog, especially if youre old enough to remember when ALL watches were analog--lol I have two Casio Duro's in gold and black and I love them - but I do like my digital watches also, just depends on my mood and use case.

[OakesDesign]

Both straps look great, but I think I prefer the look of the nato on it. Also looks a bit more comfortable.

[UnburdenedByWhatHasBeen]

The blue AR is anti reflective coating. Should make the watch more legible outside on sunny days. I would have definitely paid the extra money for the sapphire crystal though. Its well worth the upgrade. You can also get great quality steel bracelets for these online. Long Island watch makes a nice one.

[Gigachad-hbji]

Awesome matching bracelet you got there! Dome lens mod looks fantastic for a dive-style watch!

[flaviop]

Cara, ficou espetacular, estou pensando em fazer no meu. Mas a pergunta é: ainda ficou a prova D'água?

[ItsAMadHouse]

The nato is great in hot, humid weather, the metal will not be as comfortable. You can definitely make mistakes, changing the crystal, not sure I'd recommend that for everyone, I messed up a date window by putting the stem back in behind where it goes. Before you do it really ask yourself if its going to make that much difference, or you can wait until your min. glass is really scratched, which will be quite a while.

[nicodimus]

Shark mesh is actually what I have on my dive watch. It just looks phenomenal.

[rickfimple]

I love this mod! The rounded blue crystal and the Steele bracelet. Wow! Beautiful. I am going to do this mod with mine. I did not care for the NATO strap. I can see the practicality of one of if I was a diver..but they always make watches look bulky. Great video!

[andrewd]

Firstly as a Boomer, I really feel your pain having to read an analog dial. Secondly, to actually manually rotate a bezel to time your steak cooking? My god man, the worlds gone mad!😵‍💫😱🤣 I’ve had a Duro for a couple of years & did the same mod to the crystal, but went sapphire!🤩 I’ve looked at that bracelet but have swapped the old one with a FKM rubber strap. I just received the AE-1500 on Friday & love it. I wouldn’t go for the other model simply because I think it looks really cheap. And it just doesn’t look as nice as the original issue. Good review of the Duro. A poor man’s Rolex Submariner.

[GusAudibert]

I have the entire Duro collection (7 variations)
It's the only watch model of which I have all the variations... thanks to its low price... except for the one with the white dial 😀 which is now expensive when you can find it! (often second-hand)

[sathishrao]

Suddenly I’ve got Duro added to my Casio purchase list !

[stavl]

I have both the Duro and the GD350. The vibe alarm on the GD350 is a godsend as I am hard of hearing.

That being said, def love the metal bracelet and the lens mod. Really kicks the Duro up to a more premium watch. Earned yourself a new sub!

[eric_in_florida]

Looks great. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who has to do everything twice :)
