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 basic watch that keeps time perfectly. For $20 you simply can't get a better value. It is waterproof, and I have abused the heck out of it. A year later and it's still working great. I do miss the date feature. Maybe when this one does I'll get the $21 model.

I recently bought the Casio Men's MQ24-7B2 Analog Watch with a Black Resin Band and I must say, it has exceeded my expectations. This timepiece beautifully combines simplicity with reliability.The design is classic and minimalistic, perfect for everyday wear or even for a more formal setting. The black resin band is comfortable on the wrist and feels durable enough for daily use. The analog display is clear and easy to read, making time-telling effortless.What really stands out about this watch is its reliability. Casio is known for crafting timepieces that last, and this watch is no exception. It has been keeping accurate time since the moment I started wearing it, which is crucial for me in a watch.Moreover, its water-resistant feature has proven handy in various situations, giving me peace of mind during unexpected weather changes or accidental splashes.For its affordable price, the quality and functionality of this Casio watch are outstanding. It's a fantastic value for the money and I couldn't be happier with my purchase.If you're in search of a no-nonsense, dependable watch that won't break the bank, I highly recommend considering the Casio Men's MQ24-7B2 Analog Watch. It's a reliable companion that gets the job done while adding a touch of understated style to any outfit. Overall, a very satisfying purchase that I would gladly recommend to others.

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!

My oldest granddaughter has become fascinated with my watch collection and is always after me to let her wear my watches. She just accomplished writing her name by herself for the first time (at 3yo), so as a reward I got her this watch. At 33mm 36mm lug to lug, this is slightly larger than some "kids" watches out there, but I'm out to get her able to recognize her numbers consistently and actually tell time, not read a digital display. This is a wonderful piece for that -- super legible, some water resistance, and inexpensive so if she manages to crack the crystal or just loses it, it's not a heartbreaking situation.One thing folks should be aware of, and the product Q&A didn't seem to really hit on, is that the band is absolutely replaceable, but the specs are WRONG. This is NOT a 20mm band. I bought a nice hot pink (of course her favorite color) child's size 20mm band and it's too big. Fortunately for me, I'd at the same time purchased a kids sized Zulu-style strap (also in hot pink -- https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M04HXPQ) that stated 16mm compatibility.It wasn't easy, due to the way the spring bars are set further back into the lugs than a lot of my watches, but I did get the Zulu installed. You can't do what you'd normally do -- put in the spring bars and thread the strap through, though. The bars being set further back means a 1.3mm thick strap won't just thread through. What you have to do (and I've done this on some Chinese origin pieces I own) is push the strap fully up into the little gap that exists "behind" the spring bar holes and push the spring bar fully in against the strap. This isn't easy, and the result has the spring bars under more horizontal tension than I'd like (which means the strap may pop out under normal wear) but again, if it happens and she loses the watch, it's not so expensive I'll be upset in any way.So many watches could learn from the simplicity of this piece. It is amazingly readable even for a 33mm watch. The alignment of the second hand is spot on (which I can't say for some other brands I've spent 20x over the price of this), it's of quartz so of course it is accurate. The crown is a little tough to work with, but it's a tiny watch, so of course it is. It's not screw-down, but it's a $15 watch so of course it isn't.All in all, I'm super happy with this pick up. Granddaughter was ecstatic and loves it.

Seeing as I have a tendency to lose watches, I wanted to get one that wasn't too expensive. I was positively surprised to find one on Amazon that met my criteria (simple modern design, clearly legible analog dial, reputable brand) for only $10. As far as I can tell, they are cheap not because they are shoddy but simply because they are simple.The watch has a polyurethane strap, a stainless steel back, and a hard plastic front ("crystal"). According to the markings, it is assembled ("cased") in China, but the mechanism ("movement") is made in Japan. The case is a bog standard model so if you want to put on a different strap you can easily do that. The strap is quite comfortable for a plastic strap, but it's a bit on the short side. It fits around my wrist, but only barely.It's marked as "water resistant," which does not mean you should go swimming with it, but it should be able to withstand some rain or a quick shower. In my experience, if you replace the battery in watches like this it's going to take more than $10 worth of effort to get it back to being similarly water resistant, especially as far as condensation is concerned. For high-end watches it's worth having the battery replaced by somebody who knows how to properly put the waterproofing seal back in, but for a $10 watch, unless you live in Arizona and never wash your hands, you probably want to just replace the whole watch when the battery runs out.Within a day of buying this watch I actually received a compliment about my nice-looking new watch. And I agree. Casio did not attempt to make their $10 watch look like a $100 watch with chrome-plated plastic and other such gimmicks. They produced a simple design that makes the most of the low-end materials at end rather than making a feeble attempt at imitating more expensive materials. And it works.I don't expect this watch to be an heirloom any time soon, but it tells the time and it actually doesn't look half bad, all for ten bucks. Congratulations, Casio! Awesome product!

This is a very simple, small, basic, practical and affordable watch that performs the most important function of watches, tell time, without any bells and whistles and distractions! It doesn't take up space and it doesn't have things that protrude too much and can get caught up in sleeves. It isn't affected by washing hands or washing dishes. It is hard to ask for more from a ten dollar watch!However, it is not perfect. I bought two of these in the Fall of 2010. Of the two that arrived, one was dead on arrival. Amazon promptly replaced it with a new one. Of the two working ones, in about 2.5 years, the wrist straps on both of them broke off. One of the two ran out of battery. The loop on the wrist strap broke on one of the two. So if you are looking for a watch that will keep ticking for many years without any maintenance, this is probably not it.The watch costs slightly more than what watch care stores charge to either replace the battery or the wrist strap. So if you really like the watch, you can instead get a brand new one (instead of changing the battery or the wrist strap). This way, you get a new watch, new battery and new strap and you can save the previous watch as spare parts if something breaks on the new one.In my case however, the wrist strap proved to be the weakest link. In one customer review here, this Voguestrap TX16G13 Allstrap 16mm Black Regular-Length Fits Casio Sport and Diver Watchband was recommended as a replacement strap. It costs about half the price of the brand new watch. So instead of getting another watch, I am giving the Voguestrap wrist-strap a try. I only used it for about two weeks, so it's too early to tell.Changing the wrist strap on this one is fairly simple. You just gently push on the bar that holds the strap inwards and down at the same time. There are plenty of tutorials online if you google them. I am rather clumsy but I was able to replace the wrist-strap using a small screwdriver and patience.I did not attempt to replace the battery on my own. I took it to one of the local watch care shops.Overall, I love the simplicity, practicality, and lightweightness of this watch. The price is hard to argue against. The only issue is that its strap and battery may need replacement every 2-3 years. If you are okay with that, all is well! But some prefer to have things that just work as they are and don't want to deal with fixes or replacements or hassles.

If you are reading this review, stop after this next sentence and just make a decision. Flip through the other tabs you have open with the other ultra-affordable watches and choose the one that seems most aesthetically pleasing to you and just buy it.At the time of this review the watch is priced at $4 ($3.99 to be exact) and is eligible for Prime shipping--all by itself, even (i.e. not as an add-on). I bought this watch for just under $10 about a month ago. At its current price, it's borderline irresponsible to not buy this watch if you are in the market and the spartan style doesn't turn you off.The watch is nothing special. It is a very cheap timepiece and acts as such. That said, I am remarkably happy with it considering its cheap price.Few people wear watches these days. I didn't until I started having to constantly write the time down for my job and got tired of pulling out my cellphone. Most people wear watches now more for form than function, as is evident through the garish monstrosities that some men wear these days (and the overly ornate and ultra-tiny watches women wear). Having not worn a watch for many years, I was originally quite torn between analog and digital, but ultimately went with analog for its classic style.Aesthetically, the watch is nothing to write home about. It is a very simple looking watch. The watch band is made of non-reflective rubber which almost looks like something less cheap if you aren't looking directly at it and are partially blind. The numbers stand out quite well and the face's bright white backing make it almost luminescent in dim lighting (although without the added cost!). You won't win any awards for fashion with one of these clunkers.Function-wise, the bold letters and white face make this a very easy watch to read. I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the seconds-hand does not make that barely audible tapping that some more expensive watches do--that noise was one of the many reasons that I stopped wearing an analog watch some many years ago, actually. It has quite consistently kept accurate time for the month-and-change that I've had it and I expect it will for a while until the battery starts to run down.My only real complaint with the watch is that the timepiece part seems slightly thick, mostly due to the faux-glass plastic face cover protrudes from the rest of the body and forms a considerable lip. This wouldn't be an issue except that it makes it difficult to fit my shirt cuffs over the watch. Because of this, I find that the cuff winds up shoving the watch into the crook of my wrist and can become somewhat irritating. At that point I usually take the watch off and set it on my desk so as to have easy access to the time still. So bonus points for being a makeshift clock, I suppose.If the body were thinner I would rate this five stars. As it stands, I would not hesitate to recommend this to a friend or family member for the low low $4 price at which it currently stands. For those of you with paler skin, though, the black is quite deep and will contrast very starkly with your skin tone (I know this because it happens with me). So be sure you're okay with this attention drawn to it since the watch isn't exactly a beauty queen.For four dollars and Prime shipping, though, skip going out to dinner and buy four or five of these for the same price (or one and spend the rest of the money on other stuff you don't need--you earned it!).

Very good watch,just needs larger wrist band

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.

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.

This is a cheap piece of rubbish. I got it for my son who works in a plant nursery. The watch broke after 1 week. Don't buy this.

Es un reloj muy clásico lo compre porque es el que usa el papá le quería regalar a mi esposo amante de los relojes algo bastante clásico y fue muy acertado, lo usa mucho para nadar cuando vamos a las piscinas de verano el precio está muy bien por la calidad del reloj que recibes

Really good so far. Amazed for the price. It’s nothing fancy, straight forward, no nonsense watch. Bought for work, And tells the time. So can’t complain about anything. I like the simplicity of it and the fact didn’t cost much, whilst still looking good/stylish enough to probably wear out. Also comfortable to wear at work all day, while doing a physical job…
