Simple premise today; two great JDM dailies, but which is better? No losers today but one watch stands out in almost every area for me anyway. Cheers, Jody

Leave it to Casio to name their titanium model with an "S" and their stainless model with a "T".

Tempus fugit... I remember the times when you were a dive watch kiddo. Now you're grown up and started to play with serious watches. I'm so proud of you. 😆

Almost four years in and I still love my S100. Such a light, comfortable watch to wear. Particularly in the summer time.

For me its the 100, domed sapphire and titanium trumps all the other points. Fortunately I live in UK so no issues with radio signal. Once you are getting your phone involved you're in smartphone territory and all of their drawbacks, just not worth the trouble for me.

I think a T200 at a 38-39mm size would be a perfect do it all watch, at least for my skinny wrists😄

[lookatwrist]

I love Titanium but the T200 is just so gorgeous. The indices just suspend over the dial, looks amazing.

[eazye]

I own an S100 and i absolutely love it. I’d never want the other model

For those not loving the design of these, Oceanus has a ton of different models and designs, even DLC models. Prices run the gamut, from like Jody said, mid $300's to the mid $3, 000's, so you are bound to find something to fit your style and budget.

Makes you wonder, do the quartz haters know what they are missing? This is perfection in time keeping! These are both magnificent watches, just like the little brothers of the cheaper Lineage line! ❤

I've had my s100 for a few years and it has become my favorite daily wearer. I agree that if the t200 were smaller and titanium it would be the perfect replacement someday. Meanwhile, the oceanus has made me question a lot of my collection. So, maybe that is a point against it.

Picked up a T200 a few weeks back and am extremely impressed. It catches and plays with light like a perfectly cut diamond and is a joy to look at from every angle. The lume, while not overly bright, does seem to last all night long. The bluetooth feature makes setting it as easy as can be, though I would be totally lost if I had to set it manually :)

When I started collecting watches, all of my "Grail" watches were Seiko. But when Seiko decided to leave the "affordable" watch world while simultaneously abandoning quality control, I started obsessing over microbrands. However, in 2022 Casio seems to have all the watches in my "Grail" watch lists. The Oceanus T200 is now on that list.

[garethhanna]

I prefer the design and size of the S100, and I'm a sucker for domed sapphire. Picked up the stealth black version and it's a keeper.

[craig]

S100 is still hard to beat. Have owned one for the years, and it's still accurate and fantastic to wear.

[lapoupadotcom]

T200 is the prettiest IMO, the dial has more presence and the brushed bezel and sharper angles just make it look simultaneously more purposeful and refined

[janreeves]

I have both of these watches - both watches that I got came with half links and I was able to get a great fit for my 7.25” wrist. I find the s100 to be one of the most comfortable watches I own.

[jodiwilson]

Oceanus, great range. Let down by a press on caseback. The Casio Lineage range is the range below Oceanus. Lineage are ana-digi combination offering : steel or titanium, sapphire crystal or mineral, solar charging, multiband 6, world time, alarms, chronograph, timer, battery level indicator. Lineage is well worth the money & quality is still up there. I'd like to see a review on the channel. The 700d chronograph or a 170 is a good introduction to the range.

[MarkSmith-vbsu]

I have been wearing my new Oceanus S100 for a couple of weeks now. It just gets better and better. As Jody mentioned you barely know your wearing the watch. The quality and finish is on a par if not better than a number of much more expensive luxury brands I own. So pleased I took the plunge. So good I am actually considering buying the T200 as well.

[jperryhal]

The OCW-T200 has been my favorite watch among 19 others since I bought it. Perpetual calendar and down the second accuracy means it's the watch that is used to set all others except for the Casio GWM-5610, which is itself solar & multiband 6 synchronized here in the U.S. Great battle! Both are superior to many other watches in any price range.

Just got my s100 for slightly more than 400USD new incl shipping. I like the slightly retro design. The brushing on the titanium case and bracelet is excellent. The watch sized for my wrist is less than 80gm, I can wear it all day without discomfort. The subtle blue reflection from the markers and sapphire makes this watch look special. It was well worth the price.
