Whoa! I collect Casio watches but have never even seen this field watch before. Solar charging too, what a beauty!
Love your channel with so many stellar watches! For me the MAMACOO’ watch is my favorite. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
My favorite watch channel without a doubt.I’m happy to spend my money on MAMACOO watches. I’ve never been let down by their products
With the sand colour nato, or sand colour leather it looks awesome.
I think so too!
that was incredible. what a beautiful watch and what great work you did on it!AMZWATCH
I bought a watch from AMZWATCH lightly used for my last milestone birthday. Don't wear it as much as it deserves, but not afraid to, either. It's stunning . Good taste, Sir.
Can’t find this model anywhere. Where can it be currently purchased?
Nowhere
If you don't mind hunting second hand JDM watch there are several models of similar looks:
- overland, overland titanium (ovw series)
- waveceptor (wva m600 and up)
These two offer solar, led light, radio controlled. Both have digital module but only the later have digital display. There is also "Timber Cruiser" (tic series) that looks slightly busier but I'm not sure if they had solar within its lineup.
Thank you for your suggestions! Soooo the Overland looks quite similar to this one, but built with better materials.
The Waveceptor looks nice too, not my style, but some people might find it attractive with the digital display.
The Timber cruiser is quite a surprise from what I see. Usually you wouldn’t expect Casio have that aesthetic.
Thank you! Cheers!
@@WristSaga A little bit more about the wva-m600 and 630 is that the display is dot matrix but japanese only, easier to setup once you get the days in kanji. It is slimmer so it wears larger on the wrist, the lug space is cut straight to the case, so if you replace the bracelet it fill the gap nicely, it's a strap monster. They came in black or grey dial, also with baton or numeric applied marker.
I believe it has the same module with Casio Lineage series. The difference obviously english text. And while m600 case is half-stainless, half-resin, resin-button, the lineage is full stainless and the lug space is rounded.
The ovw looks analogue but it is completely digital inside. It knows AM/PM (for alarm function), date, day of the week, month and year. Yes it has perpetual calendar from 2000 to 2099, but because it doesn't have display it's a nightmare to setup unless you blast emulated "radio signal" for it to receive manually.
You can get ovw direct from japan in decent condition, most of them said untested so be aware of that. Sometimes the 'basic steel' version came engraved with company name like ANA or japan post to commemorate its employees.
Timber cruiser is still a mystery for me since I haven't got one (not in good price anyway), but the eralier version is more like a dive-field-hybrid while the later version looks like aviation watch.
What I like about these jdm watches is that they're rich with detail, the marker are all applied not painted. Lume that make seiko blush, but they're old so while it's bright, doesn't last long. And the heft.. They're not heavy but it felt hefty for its size especially compared to modern casio general that often feels "empty" Do they even made jdm casio today? Anyway.. I've said too much :)
My favorite 2024 is the Prospex Limited Edition 1965 Recreation European Exclusive in Gradation Island Blue. The dial is stunning and the contrast when on a white strap is to die for. I will get my hands on one from AMZWATCH
It sure is a good looking watch
I've recently began my obsession as a watch collector. And i must say- out of all the luxury brands I've been researching, for me the AMZWATCH's watches are the most intriguing.
The placement of the date window would be a deal killer for. Otherwise it’s a nice watch
I know. But we can forgive Casio for this, they offer great watch for everybody.
I'm genuinely impressed with how close MAMACOO were able to replicate every aspect of this very very goofy looking classic watch.
got my 39mm with the white dial on the 3-link "Bader" bracelet watch on MAMACOO 3 weeks ago and am loving it to pieces. Absolute fantastic watch that wears super comfortable on my 6.75 inch wrist. Chose the 3-link over the 5-link bracelet for the toolless quick adjustment. Way more comfortable than my Longines Hydroconquest 41 mm.
Good to see it's solar! Thanks for the review. What do you think of the Militado Ml05/ML08 as a Hamilton substitute?
Also I'm interested in what you are sewing..
What is the reference number for this timepiece?
I saw a lot of people talking about it and on paper looks promising with the specifications. I will definitely get one, experience it and review it in a future video. Thanks for the tip! I’ll keep you updated once I get one.
@@WristSaga Thanks! I got one after the watch geek's video. Lume is mediocre, everything else great. Somehow under +1 second a month, but people get lemons, too
@OverCowboy I was sewing a travel watch pouch. I will post it in the future on Instagram.
loved the green strap 😎👌🏻
The cheapest one I have. Found it for 1 euro in an Action store in The Netherlands
Cool watch, and good review. Is there any lume?
Thank you! Unfortunately they didn’t apply any lume on this one.
MAMACOO！Every time you exhibit one of these watches I become super tempted to get one.
I can't find it for sale anywhere. Any suggestions? Thx
Any luck?
@@Uchoobdood No, this watch was made a few years back and probably discontinued. Not sure why this review was posted since you can’t get one.
@ForlornFreddy, yes it was discontinued even when I bought it. But you can still find it around second hand and to be honest in east european countries they still have it for sale. It took me a bit longer to review, I wish I had reviewed it earlier. But to answer your question, I wanted to show first what Casio can do, not necessarily to promote a new line. Cheers!
@@WristSaga Thanks, I figured that was the case. Great review, really would love one. It’s a sly homage to my Hamilton. I also appreciate the solar.
This looks dashing, I'll keep an eye on it
Nice watch but looking at what's available, there's a Singapore grey-marketeer selling them for $180. That seems quite a lot for a basic Seiko solar, let alone a Casio. Would love to know where it can be found for a sensible price. If not, then the claim to value for money is obsolete. I suppose eBay et al are our friends, but I'm not sure I'd put in the effort. Good vid though and keep up the good work.
Get anything but the Hamilton. I owned one and broke 2 mainsprings within 3 years. IMHO, the watches are not as durable as they once were. I have a Sony 5 Sport now. Love it.
Nice looking watch especially for a Casio.
It really is!
Interesting watch.
Lorus also make some nice field watches, and they look even more similar to the Hamilton Khaki. They look better than this Casio in my opinion.
They are not solar, though, so if you want that, this Casio is the way to go.
Sure Lorus has some great pieces. I also reviewed one of them on this channel. But do you have a particular one in mind?
@@WristSagait's actually the one you reviewed. It's the same price range as this Casio, better technically in every way, and, to me, better looking. Big fan of it.
Can you tell me which model of Lorus is that? I'm looking for an affordable field watch for my daily beater
That's a really good looking watch I had no idea about. I purchased a Hamilton Khaki King three years ago which I enjoy wearing. Finding out however this Casio is solar powered I may have bought this. I will look out for one though but I would imagine if any are to be found the price would be much higher because of its rareity.
You should be proud of you Hamilton. Certainly the case will last longer than this Casio’s case. In terms of solar, this Casio sure beats the accuracy and reliability of any mechanical. The price is still low until shop owners find out about the demand.
How do I buy this ? I want one so bad!!!
Try looking for websites from east european countries like Romania or Bulgaria. Recently I saw them online in stock at some Casio dealers.
Casio has a knack of putting together a quality and stylish watch at a reasonable price. That said, why a short run and discontinue?
Maybe people were not interested in this model, unfortunately
I would prefer to buy a quartz field watch around this price point as opposed to a Hamilton or Citizen priced at $500 and up. If you take it out in a recreational setting you can be a little rough with it and not be concerned about hefty replacement or repair costs.
Pity it was a short production run and is no longer available. It REALLY annoys me when manufacturers do this and Citizen,Casio,Seiko have absolutely no excuse for doing this.
You are absolutely right! Maybe this is how they keep people’s attention.
You're a fool.
Wow looks amazing, will have to procure one
Too bad the watch has been discontinued. Almost impossible to find now. I was lucky enough to buy one with a steel bracelet last year. Swapped it with a brown leather strap.
I searched on the internet, but I can't find anything. Where can I buy it?
Search for small watch shops in Eastern Europe. They still have them there.
I just curios about the fountain pen showed in first ten seconds. Is it Parker 75 ?
I wish it was, but it’s just a simple Parker Jotter. Good observation😏
casio and timex are great lately
Even they are treated as cheap watches, they offer a lot for the money
@GMT-3, você podia vender na loja, hein?
😂The design is nice, but I can't stand the messy alignment of the second hand and indexes.
Still for 50USD it a nice watch
I can't stand Messi too, brother
@@dovs96 yes because of his greatness
I agree. That is a huge pet peeve of mine. Second hands that stop between markers rather than on them is an easily fixed QC issue. I own a lot of Casios and this is not an issue Ive experienced with any analog watches I own. He may have just gotten an off example.
@@WristSaga Where did you buy this from its so hard to find
Would look better with a matt finish. The best looking but short lived field watch was the little Orsa.
Oh look a Camilton. Or Hasio. You pick.
Camilton sounds nice😏
What do you make of Timex Expedition North Solar Post 36mm?
They are awesome watches if you can find one
It looks very pretty except for that half 3, and colors are nice. I have been thinking on getting a MTPS120L, which I assume is the replacement for this. Solar, 100m WR, has day and date, but no white version, 3 is gone and they added minutes numbers and markers to the bezel, which I think it looks worst than this model
The model that you talk about is way above this model in terms of specs and alignment. If you find one, get it! Unfortunately that one is pretty rare too.
I would go for MTP-V006L, because of the indices.. but i would choose the S101 because of the WR and the Solar Powered.
Casio has been making quartz watches since forever, yet they still can't get the seconds hand to hit the markers.
Same with Citizen
I guess you don't know anything about the vast majority of higher end models from CASIO, like the LCW-M100TSE that I'm wearing right now.
Good find but the watch is no longer available. sadly.
I know:(.
Couldn’t find it. Did Casio discontinue this model?
Add a screw down crown for at least 100M WR & I'd be into it. 50M isn't enough for a go-to field watch.
I know, but at the end of the day it’s just a Casio.
@@WristSaga casio duro moment
Reminds me of Hamilton with their lack of antireflective coating making it hard to see the face at many angles.
Can’t find it anywhere, what is the problem ?
It was discontinued unfortunately, but there are some stores that sell it, but not the major ones. It also depends what region you are at.
wow! cant find it anywhere.. Want to buy
MTP-S101-1BVDF
Price?
50USD a few years ago. Now, if you can find one, around the same price if the seller stays true to the brand😉
Anyone a link to buy this watch??
Try finding it in small online shops, don’t look for big ones. Especially in eastern Europe side (like Romania or Bulgaria)I see that some shops still have it there.
@@WristSaga Thank you
It's a nice looking watch but my OCD tendencies would not accept the calendar/numeral configuration. It simply looks like a sloppy error. The second hand also isn't hitting the seconds markers squarely and are ever so slightly off.
It was and it will always be an affordable watch, thus these small mishaps. Cheers!
Beautiful Casio, I'm afficionado,I'm a new subscriber to the channel great content..hope to see more videos like this... until next time..peace..
Thank you for your appreciation! This Casio looks even better in person🤩Peace!✌🏻
Shame it's kind of made of unobtainium ...
All dat AMZWATCH watches sssssoooooooo gorgeous！
Not available anywhere in Europe.
Wow what a nice watch
It really is!
Cool watch. Only found one new with a white dial on Amazon Saudi Arabia - not as nice as this one. While I was there I saw there are Casio watches available in SA which I have never seen in Europe.
Glad to hear that you found one. A lot of them are in Romania and Bulgaria, not on Amazon, but in small online shops. Usually in these countries are many other watches that don’t sell in other parts of the world. I don’t know why, but it is what it is.
I have an Apple watch, and I would never use anything else. Who needs a watch that can be a few minutes off and doesn’t detect Atrial Fibrillation?
This is why I would never judge anyone that wears an Apple watch. Not everybody should love classical watches and if you have an Apple watch and you love it, it’s the most important thing. Cheers!
I dunno. I really like the field/Flieger style in a watch, but this one actually looks as cheap as it actually is. Just look at those uneven milling marks on the top of the lugs and encircling the case. Only 50 m WR. And with a chromed brass case, even $50 doesn't seem all that affordable any longer. The large and ugly printed Casio logo doesn't help. For a solar powered field/Flieger, I'd rather spend double the amount (which fortunately isn't much in this case) and get a Citizen. And as it happens, that's just what I did. Got an AW5000 with a nicely finished steel case and 100 m WR. Or just look at what the Chinese are offering over at Ali Express.
No way! Hamilton all life long😊
Hamilton is a great watch brand, but not affordable. Casio is affordable, thus the small mishaps😏
how automatic can compete with quartz ???
Better accuracy😏
Ooops. Casio has a notorious habit of cutting into number markings with date windows or displays. Ever seen the Citizen BM8180-03E or BM8188-01E ?
Which Casio watch is this ...????
MTP S101
Casio + Solar Powered is a WINNER BUT only 50 M Water Resistance is a LOSER !!!!! Watch should have had atleast 100M WR
Facts, that's very important imo
When was the last time you dived to 100M?
People don't realize how deep is 50 m, but it also stems from how easy to make and cheap 100 meters and more Chinese watches. You can do everything with a 50 m watch believe me I tried
@@andyhorne9747 the reasons to look for at least 10ATM are not the ones that you imply
@@aki_Olive in fact your statement is common missconception, thus your belief. 5ATM is not 50m water resistant, even if the manufacturer itself says so.
I believe no man can say no to MAMACOO's watches
Come on, folks, if you're buying a "field watch" you're not going into the "field"; if you were you'd be wearing a G Shock.
that's a funny paradox in those kind of watches, indeed
What did the number three do to deserve this treatment?
This seconds hand looks like somebody actually tried to make it miss every single marker😂
And they did a great job😏
It’s nice but the thing is that most MF who buy a “nice” watch is because it is mechanical… being quartz/solar just doesn’t feel right it’s not that sweep from the good old mechanical watches
Very very nice!
how much was it
$50.-
Quartz is not the solution , dial should be less messy and movement automatic , WR 100m , then we are talking 😊
Here we go, we have an automatic movement lover here😏. You are right, I think this too, but it’s just a Casio, made to be affordable, so nit fancy stuff
then wouldnt be casio, so this is definitely not for you
This isn't available in India. We get a lot of sun. We should get it here!!
The title: don’t buy a Hamilton until you see this Casio.
Me: can’t buy the Hamilton for being expensive nor the Casio for being discontinued.
Double disappointment
Sorry for this:(
look at the Timex MacGyver watch for about $50 bucks
Never seen a Casio with second hand misalignment
I have a lot of them like this😏
ok, let's forget about Hamilton.
The date window ruined it😭
Completely agree🙈
Thanks
Anyone who can’t offer Khaki field then he buy this
If you can’t line up the second hand, you won’t get my custom, doesn’t matter if it’s £10 or £10000
They try their best to do this, but at the end of the day it’s just a Casio
What are its sizes ? Case Diameter. Case thickness. Band width. Ect. , Ect.,
For a bit more money you can get into a Bulova Hack 😊
Hard pass maybe if it was an automatic.
I wish it was automatic too, but Casio manufactures only quartz watches.
Yeah that’s the sad part. It’s a nice watch just not an automatic maybe we will get a reissue with your review.
Automatic movement? Dude, it's quartz. Look at how the seconds hand moves.
Quartz it is. One tick per second😏
It looks cheap af, I'll save money & pay more for Alpinist or Khaki, or at least new Seiko 5 Military.
Nice video, nice vatch but hamilton is hamilton
Thank you! Of course, Hamilton is superior, but Casio has its charm as well.
Not stainless steel unfortunately.
Yeah, that’s a but disappointing, but Casio is known for great plating. Usually they last about 2-3 years without any signs of corrosion. Mine keeps the same image as the day when I got it.
This one is ultra copy Hamilton is good
❤❤❤
Casio made another mistake. As a do it all everyday dinger it should be more watertight
Not bad but I’ll stick with my Hamilton.
If you have it, keep it and take care of it, it’s a great watch for sure and will last years and years. This one is just an affordable alternative😉Cheers!
AUTOMATIC would of been nice.
Simple facts: don't buy any Hamilton watch if you value your money.
If it was a Chinese brand, it would have certainly been called a knock-off. Fortunately, it's a Japanese brand.
The internal numbers of hamilton are better...
It looks like a copy of CITIZEN AW500024E.
There are enough cheap watches out there
Lorus has some great field pieces too. Cheers!
But I want mechanical watch not quartz.
Casio Khaki Alpinist
You said it best😏
Lost me showing the caseback..’made in china’…yeah not for me. looks nice though
All Casios are made in China.
