The reason for Ownside for me is that the there is no effective luminous quality at night - only readable with a torch which is a pity. There seems to be so many ideas from much more expensive brands like the arrow hand from Omegas aqua tera, the indices of a Rolex datejust, the contouring of a Grand Seiko, and the hint of yellow in the seconds hand from a Tudor North Flag. I haven't worn a watch in many years so even though this watch caught my eye, I wasn't looking too serious at it. I seem to be on a streak with these Casio’s as once again this unit seems very well-aligned with the second hand consistently hitting every second indicator as it moves its way around the face.

The date didn’t seem to have a quick adjust function and you have to adjust the hands round and round till date changes till correct one but this only has to be done once. When you put this up against some other watches that claim to be ‘affordable luxury’…well, I’m lost for words; in fact, there’s no need for words.You can rely on this: The watch strap has a particularly secure lock that prevents accidental opening.

I really like both watches but this is probably my favourite and the smaller sizing option is the clincher for me. This features a similar sort of quartz movement to that in the ‘ Sapphire’ watch I previously reviewed and again it seems to be very consistent, with very little recoil or variance per tick; which is great. I’ve showered in this watch on several occasions and found no issues, though this watch should easily handle more demanding activities like swimming without a problem. Also I find the unscrewing crown for time and date adjustment is awkward to use, and the pull-out for both date and time adjustment is clumsy in my opinion. In fact, when combined with the sharp, angular crown guards; the side profile reminds me of a starfighter from Star Wars, which is super cool.Case material is Stainless Steel, which stands for a high quality of the item and the Black dial gives the watch that unique look.

Over the dial, this is rocking a simple piece of flat mineral glass, which is the norm at this cost and will give some scratch resistance; though reflections can give you some hassle. As someone with smaller wrists, I opted for the smaller option, as it comes in at just 35mm in diameter (excluding the crown), 9. Casio somehow manages to put all those aspects into one watch without making it look tacky and even appearing to be quite original. It’s an everyday reliable watch that does the job very well and you won’t be disappointed in what ever colour you decide to choose, except that the black and white versions are more to pay.

The glossy, faceted hour and minute hands match exquisitely with the polished bezel and indices, resulting in a very consistent look. When combined with the 87-gram weight, it is definitely the most comfortable sports watch I’ve ever owned.
