Casio Illuminator Dive Watch (MD-528) Vintage?

Found this from a local watch maker. It's quite interesting I thought it was just a "Dive-styled" watch but it's a true dive watch. It has a screw down crown, 60 click rotating bezel, and lume. I checked Google for more specs about this piece but I can't find any. Does anyone here have the same watch?

So far these are my observations:

• It keeps time well.

• Lume not great but it works.

• Bezel is in rough shape so it was well worn before.

• Bezel was initially stuck and watch maker put some oil to unstick it. So for now, it can be used.

• Back light works very well.

• Dimensions are great! 40mm wide, 48mm Lug to Lug, under 11mm thick, with a 20mm lug width.

• The most curious thing for me is if I press the illuminator button for too long the seconds hand stops ticking.

I really like it, and got it at a great price I guess 😅

It's really unique and I can't seem to find any information about it in the internet other than a posting of a blue dial version of the piece for under $200.

I'm gonna say it's a late 90s/early 2000s model. What's the module number?

According at the back of the watch it's module number 1335.

That module was used from 1996-98 on various models.

Thanks for the info. It's most likely, a late 90's watch.
