MQ24 Series | Quartz Analog Watch for Men | Water Resistant | Resin Case | Resin Band | Resin Glass | Three Hand Analog (HR, Min, SEC) | Classic Casio Design | 3 Year Battery

This is a beautiful, clean, minimalistic watch for a cheap price, easily one of my favorites that I have. (Lug width is 16mm I believe if you are looking to swap the watch band.) I’ve only had it for a week so I can’t speak on the durability, but it’s held up perfectly so far. It was super easy to setup too. The only con is it pulls hair a bit, but you get used to it. (My wrist is ~6.5 in. for reference)

THIS is how all watch faces should be! EASY to read! The MQ24-7B2, aka MQ24-7BLL, has simply perfect proportions of the numericals for ageing eyes, and is a joy to look at. This dirt-simple little watch is a dream work "beater", is light, smooth, light on the wrist, comfy, and stays out of the way! Too many "tough" watches are clunky and have spikes and protrusions that get in the way and get snagged everywhere, but not this one! The white-dial/black-hands contrast is exceptional, and makes it readable even in dim conditions. This 16 dollar watch is remarkably tough for not being a G-Shock, and I even wore it for a year in a hardware store job, where it got banged up with heavy garden wall-stones and heavy metal pieces. It also get drenched in hard garden-hose spray, packed in mud, washing hands, wearing it in the shower, and despite Casio claiming no depth rating, it never got a leak, so working around water I found not to be a problem! It is most importantly a seriously good time-keeper and gains only about 10 to 12 seconds per month! The "crystal" is tough plastic, and does scratch over time. This can be polished out with a thing called "Polywatch", and is well worth doing so. It may be a cheap watch, but is so good, I would find it a shame to toss it for any reason, and a new battery was well worth the few cents, when it ran out after about 4 years or so! The crystal catches no reflections from all over, because it is flat, and I actually found that all the fine scratches I collected made i even less reflective than it already was, helping to make this watch even better in all light conditions :) Like mentioned, I did polish the watch, and it looks a bit worn, and now has real character, with the crystal smooth and just fine with a fine pattern of microscopic fine lines in it, that actually reduce reflectivity! SIZEWISE: Don't even try to complain about this being some girl's or "unisex" watch, code speak by wannabe machos for nasty slurs. This classic Casio uses the old men's size of 35mm, the size used until the 80's, for watches worn as dress watches and in WW2 by tough guys, commandos, paratroopers, storm troopers, seals, etc. MOST were made in Switzerland and sold to all sides, Nazies and Allies! James Bond's first Rolex Submariner was a nowadays diminutive for a dive-watch 38mm size, thanks to the extra outside timer bezel requiring it to be bigger than 35mm, believe it or not! CONCLUSION: Youtube "influencers" have described this as "God Tier", because this watch does just everything so right. I don't do god-stuff, but I agree, that this is one of the greatest of all times, when it comes to simple and highly functional watches! ALSO: Casio's plastic straps are known to break after a few years (they DO break after 1 to 3 years!), and this one is worth a cheap 16mm NATO cloth strap you can buy in some places for 3 bucks, or an original replacement Casio strap, once that happens!

I don't normally write online reviews, but I will do it for this product. While going digitally minimal, I needed a watch to keep track of time without looking at my phone. This is perfect for just that. The size of the face was a bit smaller than I was expecting, but the wrist strap fits comfortably with plenty of room to expand. I've done multiple checks with time.gov to make sure the watch is keeping accurate time, and it has been 100% accurate each time I've checked. I would recommend this to anyone looking for the simplicity of a basic watch on a budget. Also I should note that the strap is a bit flimsy, so don't expect to be super rough with it. It's perfect for everyday use and is very easy to read. It's just a little clock for your wrist and serves its purpose well!

The watch itself is nice, especially for low price. The band is more like a semi stiff plastic. I thought it was going to be soft like silicone bands. The little strap you tuck the excess band into pinched my arm once, and to have the band tight enough to not keep shifting watch around my wrist isn't comfortable. I ordered a few elastic replacement bands. I got the wrong size because it listed the width of band as 20mm. But the size you need to make it fit is 16mm. The band pins on this casio's band connectionis kind of hard to open. I used a paper clip to push the spring pin in (hard to get it to go) , and pull the band off at same time. The pin things on this are just straight. Others I've used, including the replacement/ replacement bands I'm using have a kind of knobby thing attached that you can use to push in the spring activated pin. Much simpler. The elastic replacement band looks better than original and is way more comfortable. So, to sum up... watch itself if is great. It did come with battery already operating, so I hope battery lasts a while, but no biggie. While the actual watch is easy to read and the perfect size, the band that included is not great. A replacement elastic band (with 16mm size connection) makes the watch a 5/5. If it had been more expensive I would've been annoyed at having to get hew bands. But it's cheap and with new band it doesn't look cheap. So far its keeping time accurately. I also like that it's water resistant. The only negative I've found is the sub-par band, but new one can be gotten really cheap. Nice basic analog watch with a second hand, at a low price.

Great minimalist watch. Clean, classic, and looks great on wrist.

Works ok, looks ok, but came just wrapped in a piece of clear celluloid like material, and was running. In past, when I've bought these kinda cheapie, but reliable Casio's, they were often in some kind of box with a display thing...and did not run until activated by pulling some strip or pushing button. Wondering if this was a customer return or just to shave on shipping. Seemed odd. These things are good for throwaways, casual use, etc....they are cheap, but good....but those button cell batts cost a bit these days now, and one might as well just rebuy whole watch when batts go dead.(Usually, batt life is kind of long in LCD type watches, but these, if good, new etc may push a year....buy the way, I do NOT think they are anti magnetic, since anytime I use these near my PC, the time is off somewhat....otherwise, no problem. So, and really, I'd llke to know, are these just now wrapped in a small piece of clear thin celluloid like plastic as S.O.P. or did I get a recycled one. Please advise PS: as an edit, or follow up....I noticed some user/s received item with dead battery. Now, the watch is in the $10 range, and is truly great for the money...but if the battery is bad, it may indicate one or more of following: could be a customer return or refurbished, was subjected to excessive heat before getting to you, maybe stayed long time in storage areas. Around my way, these batts go between $2 to over $5 in stores. You can of course order on line for less maybe, but add shipping or min order amn't or must buy multi packs. (You need one.) Careful if you change battery yourself...Easy to do, but it can be tough to avoid ruining or breaking the gasket which makes it water resistant. The latter feature not only for swimming, but routine "stuff" like washing dishes, whatever. These batts have gone up in price, are getting harder to find, fresh. (Competition is timekeeping ability from cell phones.) But if a button cell batt is gonna cost a third to half of a new watch, and I may risk ruining water resistant gasket, I just may store it for spare parts, and buy another watch for ten dollars. This is why I brought up packaging issue...if it is packed differently, and is running when you receive it, where has it been? Stored? Used? What? If you get one and must spend 4-5 bucks for a battery, if you can find (and be warned that dollar store generics may already be corroding, and physical size tends to be iffy, usually heightwise I notice)..so, are you getting a bargain? When item is bought or arrives, be aware of these things. Oh, if you've changed the batt, and were successful, still be careful of water...you may have altered position or have broken water resistant gasket in the process, unknowingly sometimes. I've used these watches for years, ..decent no frills watch. But, batts can be a problem nowadays, and that gasket is a bit delicate. Often, and sadly perhaps, I consider this type watch a throwaway item. Would like it to work a year though on battery cell supplied already installed.

Exactly what I needed for my trip to Japan. The design is super stylish—minimalist, clean, and effortless without trying too hard. It pairs well with everything, whether I was exploring the city or going out at night. Lightweight, reliable, and just a really solid everyday watch.

Very nice watch for the money. It’s accurate.

Un clásico de Casio, recuerdo que este modelo es el que usaba un papa en el Vaticano, es un auténtico calidad precio, desafortunadamente al mio se le terminó la bateria a los 6 meses que lo compre aquí pero nada que un cambio de batería solucionó y actualmente sigue en marcha.

Leggero, semplice,elegante.

I bought this for my Other-Half, as she's always struggled with the 24-Hour clock, and needs to know it for work. It's a very simple, honest timepiece, easy to read, lightweight, accurate, comfy, water resistant, and... ermmm... that's about it, really. Actually, I'm going to order one for me, too. :-D

This is probably the 5th time I've ordered this watch over many years. My first one was only $5.00. For everyday they are perfect. However, this time I didn't receive what I ordered. I received one with a gold background without visible numbers. I like the original one with the big numbers with a white face background. Hopefully next time they will send the correct one.
