Which one to buy next ?

Looking to get a budget divers watch but can't decided between the good old Casio Duro or the Orient Kamsu.

The question is do you want quartz or an automatic.

If you want an automatic, then go with the Kamasu. It is essentially what Casio Duro offers in terms of value but with an automatic movement.

Or get the Duro if you prefer quartz, it is still the best analog dive watch out there for $50.

That's a hard choice without knowing whether you like large watches. I found the Duro was too big for me to wear comfortably on a 6.5" wrist which is a shame as it's spectacular value and has nice build quality and design. Also depends on whether you prefer the practicality of quartz accuracy or the aesthetics of that automatic sweeping seconds hand.

Thanks for your reply mate, yes I have a few automatic and Quartz so wasn't fussed about either but I think I was leaning towards Duro ..

Thanks for the reply and yes I have 7 n half inch wrists and usually wear G-Shocks and have a few auto and quartz .. maybe if am honest with myself I do like quartz more just the hassle free sometimes

The Duro is awesome don't get me wrong (I have one), but honestly it wears bigger than you would think.

Thanks for the info and I think that might be ideal for my wrist size.. also thinking of changing the strap to a Nato, same one used in "No time to die"

Wow both look amazing, if you had to pick one which one would it be ?

Not the same need and price. You can get the Duro for less than 50$, so the Duro first for me.

Have the Duro really like it but the bezel action broke in less than a year, definitely a £50 watch.

Thanks for replying, I may get the Duro as am eager to see the hype for the price and stick a different strap. But for the price I may not mind it breaking anytime soon
