I get my straps from www.sectime.co.uk - mention me when ordering, perhaps they will send some for review!
The grooves on the rubber band are not meant to stretch or extend. It's for ventilation so your wrist doesn't get too sweaty
First thing I bought this watch it was a beater ...now after a year I just love it ... cant go out without wearing it .... maybe that's the idea about casio beaters ...the relation becomes sentimental with the watch
This is my favorite watch. I personally don't think the strap is uncomfortable at all. I do like pairing it with a black camo nato strap too.
I have no problem with the strap. Love the watch.
I'm not a fan of the plastic strap, either. I wore a DW5600 for 13 years and never found it be comfortable; but lived with it. Recently bought a DW-290 and swapped the stiff plastic strap for a thin NATO. It wears like a dream and my only regret is that I should have did the same thing with DW5600.
Great video. Was wanting to pull the trigger on this one but I needed a strap option. Thanks for the help. Love the Yoda input. I'm a big Star Wars fan.
That's also the watch Robert Mueller wears every day. Great piece. It's among my Top 5 Casio Digital Watches.
Every time I buy a new Casio with plastic straps, I "form-fit" the straps to my wrist by immersing them in boiling-hot water for 10-20 seconds and bending them just the way I like them to be. I also turn the tip of the the longer strap (the one without the buckle) inward like a letter "J" so it won't stick out like a sore thumb.
Great watch!! Most of my collection are Casios, including this one.
Your first ever Casio was my first ever Casio… sadly discontinued or I’d buy another :(
Thank you so much for the Review!
How did you get rid of the green writing?
Hi I have a mint early 1990's version module 1219 and on the case back is Japan .m not China. Great review bye the way.
I totally agree with you on the Casio watchband issue. Other than the movie connection it is nothing special. Nice review. Regards from the desert.
Installing a strap on this is hell on earth
and the casio f30? There is not a single video and it is a watch that came out great. I remember the year 92. The buttons were made of rubber and weighed less than a feather. They are hardly found anymore. And new much more difficult.
a great casio watch the Dw 290 could be a bit of a Dw5600 beater i So wish the green print on watch body did Not rub off so fast maybe spray a very thin layer of matt clear coat would help this
Great video!
Nice watch. 👍🏻👍🏻
yea, the strap is also uncomfortable for me. Presses down on my wrist too much.
It has a certain appeal to it. It's not very versatile and it caters to a certain taste or mood, I guess. Me, it depends on the price. If I can get it for about $25 I *might* get it. Thing is though, in my country it's around $40, and at that price I don't like it enough to pay that much for it.
You are not exaggerating about that watchband; it truly is unwearable for me. The localized pressure spots just throb after a couple of minutes. TGV described it as comfortable then promptly re[placed it with a NATO strap. Go figure.
Hi. Testing my luck to get a reply from you... I really like this Casio model in general, but that turquoise lettering it has just doesn't make it look sharp. Yours doesn't have that lettering. Did you use something to eliminate it, if so what was it? or was it just erased by being worn over the years? Nice strap by the way.
Some people have said it does rub off over time. I'm sure there's a way to safely remove it.
try using thinner or acetone
What is the width of that strap sir? and what kind of strap is that? so that I could buy it. I have such watch
Hi what's the sectime strap name/code/reference? I'll give you a mention. Thanks.
Found out myself. It is:
22mm Black/Red - Silicon Watch Strap / Band with Thread, Waterproof (02ST22BA03)
Where is green inscriptions on this watch?
I'm loving that look. Do you have an integrated compass strap you offer?
Hi! How you eliminate the lettering on this watch? Looks super nice.
Thanks
It comes off itself very easily and quickly just by everyday wear
I believe a pencil eraser will do the trick. I used one to erase the lettering from my AE 1200. It's a very quick and simple method.
Great review. Got me interested in buying one. What size strap did you end up buying from sectime? Thanks
How do you get the teal colored wording off if we want to?
I just looked at getting this very Casio, but we can't get on Amazon. ? So what's up with that???.
It's on ebay for £25
$45 on Walmart website
I got mine on Amazon. Still on there now.
What's the strap?And where to buy?
does anyone know where I can find the wire bumper for this watch???? I can't find it
Cool

ukuran strap 22mm ?
Almost all Casio watchbands are complete garbage. They deteriorate and break over time. The Watches themselves however are fantastic.
What's the point of this comment?
