Already bought the green one! I also have 3 Duros. Both are great watches! Thanks for sharing.
Fair review.
Got that Addiesdive for €35 and think it's great. Love casios but the duro is too big.
I have both watches= The ADDIESDIVE and the CASIO DURO and they are great watches.
Just in time! Was literally looking at the Addiesdive
Good compare n contrast vid. Subbed!
Thanks for the sub!
I am a big fan of the Addiesdive. I have both of these watches, the biggest difference for me, and why i wear the Addiesdive more is the size. The Duro is a good watch but 44mm. The Addiesdive is a much better fit for me at 41.3mm.
For me its the addiesdive, love the duro but the addies is far better
Thanks for sharing 😀.
You bet!
Wow I just heard of Addiesdive and was checking out some videos on them. I'm blown away by how well the second's hand lines up with the chapter ring. It's aligned perfectly, where as even the Casio's seems to be landing just a smidge before the markers on the chapter ring. That's wild
The indices are not applied. They are embossed or pushed out from the metal that makes up the dial. I have had both, and now own the addiesdive only because the Duro was bigger than I liked. The addiesdive is a perfect size for me. I do agree that the Duto dial is mich better. For the price, nothing can beat Addiesdive lume. It is great.
Hey, thanks for the info
Casio Blue is awesome!
Agreed!
Casio Duro, one of the best bang for your buck, however too big for my 6.5 inch wrist & poor Lume, which imho should be a must on a diver.
The Casio MRW is better for smaller wrists, but only has 100 m Water Resistance & frictional bidirectional bezel, I hydro modded mine & looks awesome now
✌️
Oh, I bet that does look pretty cool :-)
I trust my Duro to be WR200, I would not trust any AliExpress watch R ratings. The Addiesdive is a great price when on sale, the smaller case size is nice, and the cyclops is horrible. So if you don't really need WR200 then go for the Addiesdive. A watch marked 'Diver's 200M' should be ISO tested, but I cannot see anything to say the AD has been tested so it should not be marked as such.
Fair point
If you want a trusted professional divers watch that your putting your safety into - then neither of these watches are for you ! While the Casio"s parent co. is Japanese the Duro is a Chinese made watch with a Japanese movement ..... exactly the same as the Addisdive . I have a few Addisdive watches & have worn then in conjunction with my professional dive watches on many dives just to see how they went & didn't have any leaks at all . Cheers
@@motouno3778 The point is that the Duro does not claim to be a Diver's watch, the Addiesdive does wrongly use that marking on the dial.
@@thehumblehorologist6091i use the duro for scuba diving
No contest here ...one is a legend watch creator and the other one is .....
I really don't have a dog in this fight because divers do nothing for me but had Casio done a better job with the smaller Duro the Addie's size advantage would be nullified. I have no problems with the "Chinese" watch thing because if you buy it through an importer like Watchdives they'll handle any warranty or return problems.
I'm a Casio collector, but in this instance I'd have the Addiesdive. 🙃
the Duro is to SMALL.I want a bigger one !
Ha ha!
The large dial and small hour markers make the Duro uneven with the amount of negative space between the houra. The proportions of the markers on the Addies are much better and the dial is well balanced. The lume is the true deal, Casio lume is straight up terrible, it does not last as long. If the Addiesdive have BGW9, what a true bargain for those looking for a Quartz daily
Truth.
Should have put the Addiesdive MY H3 sub homage up head to head against duro not the 2040. All nice watches 🍻 cheers
Next time!
The only problem of the Casio may be that it is too big for some people. In every other aspect I still would prefer the Casio. I have it in black/gold and it is still beautiful. The strap of the Casio is not cheap but very durable. I don't care about lume because I don't need it.
Compare it to the Duro Jr. MTD-1053D. I own all 3.
I’ve never seen the smaller Duro in person. Walmarts have quit selling them, you know.
I have all the colors on the Addiesdive collection (yellow, red, orange, green)... i love them all... Duro rocks ! but Addiesdive too.

3:10, it's an immediate KO, That casio is right up my alley. 🎉
AD 2040 forever...
lol
Yes, it is. Sort of. Because the branding (ridiculous name, unpleasant logo, stupid mention "diver's" on the caseback...) kills the Addiesdive for me. On the other hand, Casio Duro is just a very mediocre watch that too many people love to say they love. I dislike the stubby hands, the microscopic date and the aluminum insert. And the big hype 🤷♂️
🤔
watchdives and san martin are the best
Casio on sale is $40 so casio bu if adi cost $10 so mb adu
casio is a company with a dark side the casio mdv-107 watch the caliber is the miyota 2115 on the case back the module number does not match the movement the module is only for digital watches 2704 this is the module number that shit on casio The public didn't expect this attitude from you
I have a hard time understanding your comment. Add a comma, or something. Maybe that will help.
Duro wins 😂
:-)
Just drop these comparisons in your cheap chinese watch commercial. Casio is untouchable compared to these simple copies.
Well, at least I’m glad you took the time to leave a comment.
Shill for Chinese dealer.
