Haha. Was watching you do your thing with the screw down crown. That was funny. 😂
@@ayedee6681 hahaha, glad it was amusing for you, Aye Dee 😁👌
You seriously didn't know about screw down crowns? That is one of the things that makes this such a phenomenal watch at this price point. You typically see them on more expensive watches. This is also one on the reasons this watch has such a high water resistance. I own several Duros. I highly recommend this watch!
100% serious. 🤣😅 I went in completely blind!
Awesome! That makes a lot of sense, otherwise the water would get under the crown. Casio consistently offer exceptional value. 😎 Thanks for weighing in! 🙏
Glad you stumbled on the screw crown before breaking out the Vice Grips, duct tape, and WD-40. This (original Marlin logo version with gold-colored bezel rim) is my favorite watch. Super accurate. I did swap trhe band for a black stainless bracelet.
I circulate three analog watches and don't care for digital: Hamilton Khaki King II black dial/stainless bracelet for EDW. Seiko Solar 100M (also black dial & stainless bracelet) for working around the hobby farm (12 years old so more scratches don't matter - excellent time accuracy at +2 seconds/mo). Casio Dura Marlin for wet work (with black S/S bracelet) for boating/sailing/kayaking/snorkeling/fishing/hunting. Just as accurate as the Seiko Solar. Nice, large hands and good lume for low-light.
Hahaha, oh man... Can you imagine if I didn't figure it out? 🤣
Nice one - Amazing choice 🤩
Fair call! It's nice to have different watches for different situations. 👌
Thanks for sharing! 🙏
You got me laughing so hard I almost fell over my office chair. Should have known that it wasn't for nothing that you said "it's my first ever analog watch review". You live and you learn. Cheers GOAT!!!
For me Analog always wins, but enjoy my digitals also.
Hahaha, good on ya Jorge! 😂 No worries. I’m glad my predicament was entertaining for you! 😁
Exactly! I was genuinely going in blind. I love learning things first hand 🤩
Analog - noted. Thanks for weighing in!
Great to see analogue Casio's being featured on the channel! Have fun with the Duro!
There’s a first time for everything! Who knows if it will be the last 🧐 Thank you so much Gigachad! I certainly will 🤩
That’s why I love your channel, it is honest and genuine, keep it up mate 👍
I really appreciate that Atticus! 🙏 Gotta keep it 💯! It’s part of the reason I enjoy what im doing so much… Along with interacting with the awesome community like yourself! 😉
I prefer analog cause it's better visible at any angle and especially in low light. Watches with decent lume are legible all the time, no need to press a button.
That’s some great reasoning, Vadim! 👌🧠
Another vote for Analog! Thanks for weighing in. 🙏
Looks like you got screwed with screwin crown 😂
Hahaha, I sure did, RSG! 😂🔩🙏
Hahahahahahahahaha happened to me on the first time I got a screwed crown watch
Haha, Cheers for making me feel better Kashimoto 🙏 I KNEW I couldn’t be the only one 😂
the mdv106 with the marlin is not discontinued and the mdv 107 is not replacing it. the mdv106 can only be sold in north america probably because of how the licensing for the marlin was signed initially. they will continue to be sold there with the marlin logo and they even released new color variants of it after the mdv107 was introduced. the mdv 107 is sold outside of north america.
also the mdv107 has a better dial with applied indices (instead of the pressed in of the duro´s) and has signifficantly better lume too. the other specs are the same apart from the missing marlin.
Woah, this is a revelation! 🤯 That makes a lot of sense.
That's awesome to hear Casio did make some improvements such as the lume, as this would definitely encourage some to prefer this model!
Thank you for unveiling this information, Alex,. Much appreciated! 🙏
Ayer Recibí el Marlin Azul, estoy en un lejano país, con control cambiario, con una pension de solo 5 Dólares y quienes gobiernan son enemigos de Usa (Ellos, pero yo no) Recibí mi Casio MDV 106 Marlin via indirecta de Amazon y eso demuestra que Dios existe y es oidor de toda oración. Los relojes son una máquina que escudriñan el tiempo. Una obra de Arte de la ingeniería humana al ser preciso cuando mide el tiempo, son una joya de lujo atada a nuestras muñecas y también son maquinas, dichos relojes con vida propia esos relojes y sí no me creen escuche el Tic-Tac del segundero que es su corazón. El mío tiene vida y es de mi familia ahora. Un Marlin en la familia y buscare otros más. No hagas caso a los comentarios por la manera de acceder a la corona del reloj, es un Casio Duro y yo un nuevo suscriptor.
¡Me alegra saber que ha llegado su hermoso Duro Marlin azul! ¡Qué agradecimiento tan profundo has compartido con nosotros! Muchas gracias por tu atento aporte, Gianni 🙏 ¡Bienvenido a la comunidad GOAT! 🤝
Marlin I still see the Marlin logo on them watches when I was looking at them on Amazon just today and yesterday
Good stuff, Kennneth! 👌
Glad to hear the iconic Marlin isn’t quite extinct just yet 😉
Here’s to hoping the supply doesn’t dry up any time soon! 🤞🦈
Great watch, had to buy mine through US Amazon as they aren't sold in the UK.
ETA - Enjoy your new Marlin ! 👍
Me too, Lew! 🙌
Thankfully shipping wasn’t too bad to Australia for me either. Worth it for this gorgeous timepiece! 🤩
Thanks man, I sure will! 🙏🦈
imagine making watch review videos and having no idea what a screw lock crown is... that was a new one
Yeah crazy right?! 😂 Perhaps I should stick to Digital 😅
@@goatreviews it's never late to get into watches ;-)
Waiting for unboxing of AE-1500WHX-1AV
G’day Mike! No worries my friend - this has been noted. I’ll be sure to include it in an upcoming #WatchOfTheWeek poll for you 😉
Thanks for weighing in! 🙏
It's a beautiful and great watch for the price, I prefer a mix from analog and digital. Like my mudmasters
It sure is - you can really feel the quality as it’s on your wrist, right? It’s hard to believe the price point. 🤩
Interesting! A vote for “combination” of Analog and Digital. Noted! The Mudmasters are some dope looking watches 👌
Thanks for weighing in, Mr RBB 🙏
I honestly wasn't sure if you were doing a gag with the whole not knowing to unscrew the crown or not. If you really didn't know, don't take any crap from the watch snobs about it. Tell them there was a time they didn't know about it ether and we are all at different steps along our watch journey. Also, you're right the MDV106 is one to get. It has the Marlin as well as 200m WR, where as the newer versions are missing one or both. If the newer 38mm Duro (MDV-10-1A2V) had these two item, I would make the switch.
Hahaha, I can see why you’d think it was a gag at first. All that was genuine confusion! 🥲
Thanks for the supportive words, Michael! 🙏 I agree. Have already copped some, but I was prepared for jt. 😁 Real ones know that’s just how it is the first time!
Yep, I’m super happy with this choice over the other Duro options! 🤩 Thanks for weighing in. 🫡
😂😂😂... yeah, VERY FAULTY! 😅 This goddam crown!...
Didn't they mention it NOWHERE in the manual? 😮
Hahaha, I think my brain is faulty! 🤪
Nah so they did mention it in the manual, BUT it was all the way at the bottom, when clearly this should be the 'First Step', right?!
Sadly, it's because Casio share's this one generic instruction manual between heaps of different models (that don't need to unscrew the crown), so probably didn't think it was important enough 😑
@@goatreviews i think from now on, the screwdown crown is deeply embedded in your brain cells.... 😝😇 FOREVER...
This makes real life experience so valuable... ❤😇
@@goatreviews btw,
I can not really decide analog, or digital what's BETTER- because i LIKE and ADMIRE both styles for different reasons... 🕵️♂️
Analog is quicker to read - i like to wear them when i don't need the precision of seconds and milliseconds... aka free time...
Digital/quarz/Multiband6 in combo is my daily go to when i need the security of exact time.... 👍😜
@@Katzenkotze85 Yes - THIS is how life works! 🙌😂
Sometimes you have to make a mistake firsthand for the lesson to be learned. 👌
What a great and flexible approach, @@Katzenkotze85! 👌 Love it. My man getting the best of both worlds! 😁 Thanks for weighing in! 🙏
OMG...you don't know about screw down crowns!?
Yep, as a “Digital Guy”, this was completely unexpected for me 😁😂
This video is proof that you didn't lie about never having an analog watch 😂
Yes!! 🙌 Let it be known - You cannot fake my level of genuine incompetence with opening the crown! 🤣
I’m sure I’m not the only one though - the “unscrew the crown” step of the instructions manual should have been the very FIRST thing mentioned. Unfortunately, the manual is shared with MANY other watches, so is not specific! 🙄😅
At least it made for amusing content for some 😁
I ripped my nail off while trying to pull out the crown. Then I remembered it was a diver. Bled all over it.
Oh man - That’s insane! I trust you’re joking 😂
Good thing the Duro is 200m blood-proof! 😜
@@goatreviews haha unfortunately true story. I got the watch just yesterday! Really loving it. Btw blood and teardrop proof for sure. 🥲
@@inzamhaque8970 Sorry to hear that! 😱
Man I feel instantly connected with you, for our struggles with the screw down crown! 😁
Casio really needs to make this more obvious for first time Dive Watch owners 😅
@@goatreviews I feel the same! Also on the other hand I like to think that mine requires the blood of its wearer in order to be unscrewed lol!
Ps. You just earned a sub!
@@inzamhaque8970 Hahaha 🤣
Thanks for the support my friend! 🙏
Hilarious video mate 😂😂😂 This might be controversial, even as a G Shock enthusiast, I prefer analogue watches, the G Shock MTG line is my favourite 👌👌👌
Thanks so much Macro! I’m delighted to hear that my genuine fumbling was entertaining for many 🤣🤣🤣
Another Analog! That’s a hot take. Now that you mention it, I can see that now though! G-Shocks make some incredible Analogs, and your work does show your true appreciation of them! 🤩👌
The MTG line looks very cool 😎
You was sure than its a fake ?? Because if a watch claim wr200 , its obligatory a screw crown ! Push pull crown are trashes watches.
Hi Alan, the watch is genuine! 👌
I am more experienced with Digital Watches, and this was the first ever watch with a crown that I experienced.
In fact, I own plenty of 200m Water Resistance watches that don’t have crowns at all 😁
@@goatreviews i know, GshoK and other Digital Casio are really special !!!!! CASIO more of 20 patent pending for give a true Water-resistance withouth crown !!!! (Swatche is in this case in less important...but they own several patent for avoid to propose a watch easy to flood ). but in general Rules, all dive watches have screw crown and back. !!!!
@@goatreviews its mean for spot Fake Casio duro for us amateur of watches (we love watches...but me or you are not specialists ). IF CROWN IS SCREW = GENUINE.... IF ITS PUSH PULL =FAKE......
@@goatreviews in 2020 my Half Brother would a MDV 106 (blue with marlin like mine ) ..he found and buy one for just 35 $ !!! i spot immediatly the cheat...BECAUSE HE HAVE A PUSH PULL CROWN... in despite of that watche is waterprof (he use it since 4 years withouth flooded it...WITH BATTERY OF 2020) BUT NOT AT 200 M !!!! A PUSH PULL CAN BE WR 30...OR 50M (except digi Casio/Swatche..)
Wow! I’m surprised there are fake Duro’s out there for this price! 🤯 Glad to hear it hasn’t flooded yet for your brother in law 😁👌 Thanks for weighing in @@alanaliyev456GT 🙏
analog always wins for me, i even think in analog. i love a nice ani-digi as its the best of both worlds but currently im on a digital phase... i cant stop buying G-Shocks
Thinking in Analog - That’s Incredible! 🤯
I’m very curious how that must feel to visualise the time. And also, what caused it. Were you wearing analog watches from a very young age?
Hahaha, me too my friend! G-Shocks are a dangerous addiction 😁
@@goatreviews yeah, ive been wearing a watch 24/7 since middle school. so well over a decade now. its all been analog up until a few years ago when i got the digital bug. i still love a no nonsense dive watch, simple and practical
Incredible, that explains it @@mmcallery ! 😁
Yep, the bug bites, and the bug bites HARD! 🐜
Мені більше подобається цифрові годинники але цей CASIO я , мабуть собі візьму
Хороший матеріал, Casioholik. Мушу сказати, що я з вами в цьому! 🙏 Я віддаю перевагу цифровим годинникам, але саме цей аналоговий зміг схилити мене 🤩
Ouch... with a name as GOAT reviews you got whooped by the legendary Casio Duro's Screw down crown. Not trying to sound like a dick, but use google or do more research before uploading videos. There are too many videos of this watch and watch channels that are alot bigger, and a video like this could ruin your reputation (marketing/business standpoint). just fyi.
Thanks for the honest feedback, Phil!
It’s not like I edited and uploaded this video by mistake 😜 I made it clear that this was my first analog watch, going in completely blind.
My intended audience is my community of positive, supportive viewers, who sincerely appreciate the authenticity of my videos - especially when I include my honest mistakes. This is evident in the comments of this video, as well as others on the channel.
I’d rather not imitate other channels, as I’m sure you understand. Thanks for weighing in! 🙏
I recently found your channel and that little mistake don't make think that your reputation could be affected. You are very nice with the feedback that you receive from your viewers, good job my friend.
