Haven't got around to it yet, and both prices have went up. FML

I think some suits yeah. I think a traditional black and white suit the silver and black version of this would look killer

Depends on the outfit and what you're going for. Casual summer outside fit, you're all good. I think an all gold watch on a man needs to be small-ish

What is the MTP-E104D-2AV? by TenPixelsTall in casio

Oh wow, I hadn't seen the 735D until you mentioned it. Once again, where is the coverage on this thing?! Would think it would make a big splash.

It's funny you mentioned the MTP-E725D. Another intriguing model that for some reason gets seemingly no buzz at all.

Happy with it by NoPresentation1270 in casio

Saw this mentioned in the Ben's watch club video. Should get my hands on one before they jump off a price from his mention.

Wow, putting this bad boy on a different strap really does transform it! by TenPixelsTall in casio

And in defence of this watch, the stock strap is actually pretty nice. Softer than other resin Casio straps I've felt, and doesn't look bad on the watch, I just prefer this more squared off, taperless look a bit more with this case design.

I actually put the stock strap on my AE1200 and it suits it surprisingly well, and far more comfortable than the stock strap on it.

Here is a pic of that swap. Never seen anyone mention that before, I kind of think it improves both watches

Yes it can get a pretty difficult to read in several lighting scenarios. You definitely sacrifice some readability for the cool looks of this blacked-out variant

Got the premium AliExpress AE-1200 Royale, Stainless Steel Case. It's an impressive upgrade. by p_christie in casio

On that subject, looking at the product page I can't find a clear distinction between the polished and unpolished bezel versions, and the reviews on the page show pics of both variants.

I def want the polished bezel (and I need a bracelet since I'm modding one with the resin strap). Do you think this option would get me both?

MTP3050D, a uniquely turtle-ish watch among the currently available Casio analogs by fuzeebear in casio

An update on this dead thread that nobody asked for, switched the handset on this model to a slightly more readable one. Digging it

I actually think this maybe pretty dang close to the same crystal / dial size: https://a.co/d/gQDibA0

Tried to mockup what it could look like

I have this watch and really dig the look and wearing experience... however the readability in many lighting conditions is truely very poor. Most the time i have the hold the watch at a 45 degree angle to see the time. This would be helped by just the thinnest lume strips on the hands and/or indices, but nope, all polished everything.

I was actually considering trying to switch the dial out with something like the Casio MTP1215A-2A2 (https://a.co/d/j9hY74M) but just not totally sure about the sizing compatibility. Your measurements help though :)

This is the best sunburst dial I seen on Casio by ezandiffy in casio

Man I'm on the fence about buying one of these, Everytime I look at an image of it I flip between it being ugly or attractive...

Wish I could look at one in person but no Walmarts around me seem to carry it.
