What are some Casios that are good for daily wear if I may ask? :gs1000smile::gs1000smile::gs1000smile:

I'd say take a look at the various Edifice models if you like the classic analogue watch look, and if your budget allows, the Oceanus line as well. If you like digital displays, the classic line is tried and true as well (F-91W,etc).

I'd recommend G-shock, but a lot of their cheaper models have fused straps with the rest of the case that don't easily allow interchanging if it breaks. Their higher end models and the MRG/MTG series look pretty nice though.

Probably can’t go wrong with any, but for example F-91W ”Terrorist Casio” and the newer ”CasiOaks” are great bang for the buck.

Classic dive watches are getting rather generic. You know the many many that looks like the Rolex submariner.
It's a tough one - a lot of smaller brands can so easily fall into the trap. I still think Seiko dive designs are some of the best out there. Something really more 'out there' is this watch I have from a smaller brand Ming. Albeit a bit more expensive, but its something that does not follow the generic trend -

Oh cool! Will check Edifice out! I've also noticed about fused straps on the G-shocks, a bit of a turn-off for me.

I'm a pretty rough person so I might just destroy it if I were to get the MRG/MTG. But it could look nice weathered I supposed? :joy:

CasiOaks looks good too! Looks tough enough for day to day use.

What about other brands? Seiko, Times, Victorinox or any other alternatives?

Seiko SKX007 is a classic and like for many others, it was my first mechanical watch. Seiko has tons of nice diver, dress and sport watches for all budget ranges.

Oh that model is nice too! I bought the full black GA2100 CasiOak. Cant wait for it to arrive!

On a side note, anyone knows of any good online sources to get mod kits for GA2100?
