@@soupfork2105 over the past four years I’ve spent £30k on jewellery and watches I didn’t want, but the manager insists I’m next on the list! Hopefully very soon! 🙏🏻
Finally! Back to the cheap seats! These things are great. Nearly disposable, but very reliable. I used to keep one in the top drawer at work for those rare occasions when I space out my watch before leaving for work. I keep an invicta quartz, now, because I want to be upscale. [wink]
I work as a mechanic and have worn one of these everyday at work for the past 2 years. It still works perfectly even though its been covered in oil, fuel and has been bashed around.

Absolute gem of a watch, I wear mine to the beach, in the ocean, in the pool. Keeps absolute dead on time. I took mine apart and added aftermarket lume to the hands and the index at 12, now the watch glows all night!
Always amazes me that Casio can get the seconds hand to hit the marks for $20..........other $300 Swiss brands......not so much🤔

The 24-hour sub-dial is good for those who want to learn 'military time'. Nothing wrong with short and to-the-point videos! I appreciate them 👍
I had the black with yellow hands and numbers model. Pretty good disposable watch. Super lightweight and the day-date is impressive at the price-point. In a box now because i realized how much I need a backlight in my outdoors activities. I just wish they would port the solar powered moon phase and tide watch (with neap and spring tide, plus LED illumination) to a quality housing.

A top tip, if your kids need a gateway watch drug, theres also the Lady series of LRW 200. Looks the same in photos, but quite a bit smaller. I have both in the houshold, my MRW has been to hell and back. My 6 year old wears a MRW most of the time due to it being blue (boys will be boys) but the LRW does fit him much better.
Love your videos and have no been a subscriber for a couple of years now. Usually in the U.S. when someone says "HOLIDAY" ,we think Thanksgiving, Christmas, July 4th, etc. What you are talking about we would call a"VACATION". Keep up the good work!
My holiday is spent watching JOMW. :)
I have one and it only gains about half a second a month! I love it!
This is priceless. My watch strap for my G-shock broke two days before my holiday so I ordered one of these from Amazon as an emergency watch as the battery had run out on my other G shock. I have just sent the thing back to Amazon now I am back home as the day and date adjustment was horrendous and was never on the right day or time for more than a few hours.
Recently bought a Casio W-218H and I think it's a great watch for the price. Mini G-Shock appearance, good looking and very simple. Should be in the 20$ range too.
I have a friend who just took this watch diving with me yesterday! It worked out well! I wore my glycine combat sub.
Couple of weeks ago I was going to buy one of this casio just for the summer as you said but finally I choose Casio AQ-S810WC 7AV.

Bought one of these on eBay. Black with slight gold highlights on bezel, dots instead of numbers. Bought as a Bush walk, gardening and boys weekend watch. Very pleased so far. One point though, if you do change the strap to a NATO style, you may need curved spring bars as there is not much clearance.
Brilliant.I brought an all black one for camping a couple of years back but barely leaves my wrist now! My other watches hate it! Good on you .Cheers.
Nice looking watch! The Casio analog-digital watches are also useful for travelers. I like to set mine with the time of my country of origin on the analog part, and use the digital time for my country of vacation (and airline stops in between).
What a coincidence that you posted this video on the same day that I bought one of these watches at the flea market! It's in mint condition and I got it for $5. It was great to learn more about my latest watch; thank you for posting!
If Casio added some quality lume it would be the perfect travel\out doors watch.

Perhaps my experience over the years with Casio giving us so much watch for so little money I now imagine they can do anything for next to nothing. Is lume really that expensive? My low cost Seiko 5 has bright, long lasting lume. Added cost would be less than a dollar a watch is my best guess. I even looked into adding lume myself with a watch paint sold on Amazon. Add long lasting lume, bump the price up 1$ and it would be a fantastic bargain.
Got the black and white one and it's a great work watch. The second hand hits every single marking bang on , love it.
Totally agree, bought mine for a holiday in Spain and it is a perfect holiday watch, bought it from Argos for £9.99 and my review on the Argos website I described it as the prefect holiday watch. I can not recommend this watch enough, it is stunning value for money.
I just happened to be wearing my 5125 when I saw your video. Absolutely the best watch for the price in my modest collection, for both form and function.
Great video as always Jody... Great to see how far your channel has come.
Wow, this is a throwback to your first watch review!
I've recently figured out my perfect holiday/camping/festibal watch is the Casio Royale. Used to be the Timex Weekender but the tic is just absurdly loud. May need to check this one though, can't go wrong for a twenty! Great work Jody
Just got back from my 2 weeks in Turkey, i took a Casio W-800H-1AVES, It was flawless so light and comfortable, 100m WR and dual time. Cost me £15.
You must have been fairly wealthy growing up as I would have thought you would have said Blackpool! Growing up in industrial north west England that was our holiday destination of choice. Another great value offering from Casio which as always for your price you get a lot of watch for your money

Sadly, it costs about the same amount of money for a week in Blackpool as it does for a package holiday to Spain (add in the cost of travel from Scotland), biggest difference is you're more likely to get the sun in Spain and the booze is cheaper... If you weigh that up, Spain wins... also, I always found you ended up in the same B&B as the neighbours you were trying to get away from in Blackpool. I hear Blackpool is the swinging capital of the UK though, so if that's your thing... lol.
Bought a black band/case white face (which I think looks incredible) after viewing this video. Out of 15 watches, it has become my favorite EDC watch. I wear it in the shower, sleep in it & even wear it in the hot tub. I love how casio watches have 4 simple screws to remove to take the back off for a battery change. No more watches for me that require a press to get the back on. I use the bezel for cooking things in the oven sometimes. I feel naked without it on anymore. Incredible value for the money!
I have 2 of these, both Black, but one with a red bezel. Both of mine are solar powered and they are great. I actually fitted a olive drab Nato on the black one and a black Nato on the black and red one. I actually think the more subdued versions are great field watches. Simple, very rugged and very legible. I have the one for about 3 years and the other going about 6 or seven years. Will you please have a look at the Orient Defender. I love your videos. Enjoy your day.
I've got one. I've found the battery lasts much longer than two years. Mine's about ten years old and I don't think I've changed the battery more than twice. Takes a beating too. My bezel was stiff as f, but I popped it off recently and put some silicone grease on the gasket and now it's smooth as silk.
I wondered how the L.A. Lakers colors would look, thanks for the review. Just getting into your channel and really appreciate the good information. I couldn't match your accent with Australia, I have two good friends from Scotland, but your cleared that up at the beginning of this video. Have a great Christmas and New Years. Thanks again.
Quirky little fella, crazy how Casio can take elements from many different watch types here and it kind of works. Keep up the good work, sir!
For that price, what more can you ask for? Perfect watch for the holidays or the weekends. And you can get a few too for variety! Thx dude
Very nice , I like the looks of the Forester , have you reviewed that one ? I just bought an old Oceanus OC 500 do you know when Casio began making that line ?
Jody, I wanted a holiday watch and then up popped your vid. Checked out a few on-line option but found an all black version at my local Argos(!). It was £14.99 and one in stock. What's more they asked if I wanted to use up my Nectar points (memories, eh?) The net result is I paid £2.49 !!!! And, it's perfect, great size and very light. Thanks for the great suggestion and all the work you put into the channel. You are a bit of a legend.
San Miguel pale pilsen, the best loved beer from the PH 🍻 43mm is quite big so for the ladies who want one, LRW-200H is the women's version of this watch (sadly there is only one black variation available and all else are white and pastel). Makes perfect sense as a holiday watch. Looks good, it's water resistant and great for the beach, can take a beating, and cheap enough that it won't hurt if you get too drunk and somehow lose it.
I like the 24 hour dial its cool and think your watch is listed as navy blue and not purple!
I gave one of these to my son when he started Scouts 5 years ago. Still running strong.
Great to have you back with us in the bargain basement after your recent moves upmarket. 😁 Sadly I've already been on holiday, and had bought a square G-Shock to cover that one. So I have no excuse to buy one of these in some suitably lurid colour…
I own a all black version It's the one I wear when I'm cleaning fish tanks and working on cars I have mine on a Ebay silicone metal clasp band.. I used a 24mill band and cut the tip down to fit in
I've heard the module (and face, hands, etc.) can be swapped into a Casio Duro fora different look while keeping the 200M WR.
You are a bad, bad, bad man Jody That's another watch ordered after seeing a new JOMW video on youtube after a few Malbec's. What a lovely, quirky looking time piece.
keep doing what youre doing! love your videos
Not a huge fan of this particular model but I can see that it's a very good daily driver. I just ordered a Chinese watch called Lige (model 9872, silver white) for $17. It looks nice based on the marketing material but I'm curious how it looks and feels in person. Maybe you could look into Lige too, Jody.
Personally I'd just spring for (yet another) Timex weekender for around $30, if only for the Indiglo! But I do love cheap and fun watches! I like it when we all remember this hobby is supposed to be fun and not cost prohibitive. Keep up the great videos Jody!

This is why Casio is my favorite.
7 days of sun and San Miguel in a man-kini...perfect!!! I think I just found my ideal watch for lounging by the pool, thanks man
bought this watch for my brother on 2013, still running good! only need strap change.
Geting back at this It somehow remembers me of the old TAG Heuer Formula 1 from the 80's. Love it
Love Casio reviews, hope to see more.
I own a Solvil et Titus 100m diver's 41-8032-68 which I acquired in the early 90's. It's still working properly but the glass was cracked & came off. As a child back then, I don't know how to care for these timepieces. I can't seem to find a descent service center. Can you review the same model if you happen to find one?
You have recommended a watch other than the casio that was under 30 bucks...and I bought it and I enjoy it and it's a Tevise submariner homage watch and it still looks and run beautifully. In fact, if you havent done so lately...check out Tevise again. Huge range of automatics and they look great! I also bought a Tevise date just Rolex homage and it is fantastic.

I actualy used this one for diving at 35m in shipwrecks. Super reliable!
I just recieved 2 from Amazon and gonna order 2 more for my collection. A ton of bang for the $$$ and I call them a "Surf & turf " watch... field meets dive.
I bought this watch for this exact purpose for my holiday to Fiji 2 months ago! Except i went a bit more conservative with a white dial...not that I'm questioning your choices Jody!
Cool, had one, good little watch! Question for viewers - I've a dilemma, I'm after a decent sub £200 ABC (altimeter, barometer, compass) watch, & I've narrowed it down to a Casio, Suunto or Tissot T touch (used).. I'd prefer an analog time readout & metal bracelet (although the Suunto has neither, but gets glowing reviews) . Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks all, & thanks Jody 👍👍

Hey Jody can you recommend/review some Chinese special field watches?
Please can you tell me what battery should I buy?
I wear this watch to class and clinical. Helps with calculations between military and standard time for exams.
Love these. I have 3 or 4 of them.
I have the same watch and somehow having difficulty reading the hour hand. Maybe because the color of my watch face was white and does blend with the hands which is white too. Do you also encounter the same problem?
I have 4 of Casio MRW's i enjoy wearing them.
A couple months back, Amazon listed the one with black dial and dots for $11 USD. Of course, I had to buy. And it tuns out to be a really nice, practical, durable knock around watch that looks like a downscale MDV106 Duro Marlin, another Casio I own but have never really warmed up to. The MRW200, however, has been on my wrist most of the time since I got it. I almost bought the purple(blue?)/yellow one about a year ago, but I decided against it since they don't seem to be as widely distributed in the US, and can cost twice as much as the black band/case one. I like the color, but I didn't realize the band has a glossy texture rather than the satin that the black ones have. I think I might have been disappointed with that feature.
Have a look at the OTS watches
Just in time for the holidays too!
I bought watch this a few years ago. The black version with white numbers and red markers. Brill holiday watch to throw around and not be bothered I just seen this video lol. I made the choice myself based on value for money and the fact it has a bezel Great choice
I'm sold - thank you! Now to log on to the Amazon boutique.... hope I don't have to buy any other watches first before my order is accepted.
A true holiday watch! A while back I saw a comment on another watch video where a guy was doing some remote travel through various African countries as his holiday & called Rolex to see if they thought it would be ok to wear his subby. Of course they said yes & he was subsequently relieved of it, you could have saved him with this Jody!! 😂
Can you please review that wall clock behind you??
You might find a cheaper analog watch but not with a miyota movement. I have one that is four years old and on its second battery and band. I can't break it, so its replacement mrw 200 sits on my dresser.
Great value for sure. Good for going into questionable areas on vacation. I did not know you could get an analog watch for 20 US dollars that tells you the date and day also.

Bought the black and gold one and it looked way more expensive than what I got it for. Unfortunately I only owned it for a couple of hours cos it felt small on my wrist perhaps the MRW210 would've been more ideal. There's also a chrono style one (MRW400) for those interested.
Bought my first g shock today because of you Jody! I put it in my watch box without telling my wife.. she isn’t happy.. I blame you
Lol I live all year long in Malaga if where you used to go is Torremolinos. It's feria time up here! I'm still not interested in casios that are not G-shocks though lol
Got the Arabic numeral black and white one today. Loving it so far.
I have one mrw-s300h look like the same as this mrw-200h but plus solar powered. 5 year now change cheap strap 1 time full of scratch throw near the window and forget it and still ticking no problem. look like they discontinue it.
My first watch was the ana Digi version of this. I can only find it new in a weird tan colour. Got it when I was 9, I'm 18 now and I'm only now starting to wear other watches. This channel helps for finding entry though ;)
I just got mine delivered to me last week. Black and white.
Great choice. Actually I get them at price of 10gbp. Extraordinary value for money.
I got my kid the red one. The bezel keeps sticking, probably strawberry jam. Has anyone any advice on taking the bezel off and on again?
Nice to see this one back in your collection. Nice Lakers colors✌🏽
Sweet! You saved me some money :D Thank you so much Jody!
Hey Jody, can you review a Bulova 43B166? There's not a single video about them on youtube but they're so cool
Love it. But.. If I recall you did recommend the $22 Tevise Auto last year and not unfairly so.
Ha! I have three of these and had no idea the bezel would move!
Went to my local AD for one of these sports watches and there is a 2-5 year wait list. But it will be worth it.
Thanks for one more great video. Honestly I do prefer the old position of your camera... The kinda of "open space perspective" was giving me warmer feelings. Imho of course. Ciao ciao
