Picked up a new Oceanus
I've got some international travel coming up and wanted something with dual time zones. This seemed to fit the bill, is very lite weight and looks pretty good for a "not too expensive" watch. The case finishing is impressive.

They have always intrigued me.. A lot of band for your buck. Please update us after you have worn it for a while

Sure. A few random thoughts: I've really enjoyed it. Took it swimming the other day. It's so light you barley know you are wearing a watch. The accuracy is dead on. The second hand reaches 12 at the exact second my cell phone changes minutes. The titanium seems to be really tough, haven't noticed any scratches yet. The AR coating is some of the best I've ever seen. Sometimes it looks like there isn't a crystal on it at all. I had intended to put another strap on it, but I've been liking the braclet so much I haven't changed it yet. It has a micro adjust, but you have to take the watch off to adjust it. I find myself adjusting it 2 or 3 times a day. The case finishing is quite impressive and it's so fun to hit the buttons and watch the hands fly around. You don't have to use it with the app, but it is so easy and simple. I set it up once on the app and haven't touched it since. Changing time zones or flipping home and world time are the only things I can see using the app for going forward. The lugs are 21mm, limits strap choices.
That's it in a nut shell. Any questions, be happy to answer.
Wow - there is a lot to like there. Titanium.. Nice.. You are killing me
21mm Lugs - Weird
What is the name of the model you have?

Mine is the OCW-T3000-1AJF. It has the black dial. The same with a blue dial is OCW-T3000-2AJF
Keep in mind they are JDM only watches, so you'll probably have to get it from Japan. Mine arrived set to Tokyo time.

Cool - Thanks
Is the bracelet replaceable or is it integrated? Does it have bluetooth to allow the Casio app to access it?

It is replaceable, although it is 21mm, so options are a little limited. Yes, it has blue tooth and will connect with the app.

Thanks! Going to check it out. I currently have a CASIO LINEAGE LCW-M100TSE-1AJF and love it and am looking to go upscale in the Casio catalog.
21mm does limit options but at least it is an option as some of them have an integrated bracelet that can't be swapped out.

I had this Barton, available in 21mm, on mine for a while and liked it quite a lot. I ended up going back to the bracelet though, as the micro adjustment is so well implemented and the watch is so light weight, the extra tiny bit of weight makes it feel better to me. But, like you said, it's nice to have options.
