The stainless steel color bezel is 41mm in diameter but it highlights the metallic blue face quite nicely giving the watch a much bigger look.SEE MY PHOTOS IN CUSTOMER IMAGESAccording to Casio, this watch is powered by a 10 year battery. I'll update this review if things go awry.PROS:Metallic blue dial is an eye catcher - this watch is very affordably priced. Still, it never sits on my hand without being noticed!The mineral glass is slightly lower than the stainless steel bezel reducing the possibility of scratchesEasy to read Date display at the 3 o'clock positionThe stainless steel wrist band is comfortably lightweight and appears well builtThe watch band clasp has a double push safety so keep the watch secure on your handsWater resistant to 165 feet (50M) - according to Casio, 'it's suitable for wearing around sinks, during swimming, athletic sports in shallow water but not while snorkeling or scuba diving'The small screw down crown is easy to manipulate. At the three o' clock position, the crown never presses into my wrist when I move my hands upwardsCONS:This watch has no unidirectional bezel. I agree, this is no dive watch, but I actually use watch bezels as countdown timers!This 50M water resistant Casio quartz movement watch is a very accurate timepiece. Powered by a ten year battery, this affordably priced watch with eye catching metallic blue dial is a great buy. Definitely 5 STARS!Check around before you buy this Model MTP3050D-2AV Casio Men's Classic Analog Dress Watch - the price varies on Amazon.Hope my review and photos were helpful ...Jeffrey A. (Jeff)

I like to get a new, inexpensive watch every now and then, just to have something new and different to wear. So, over the years I have owned quite a few wrist watches. For what I paid for it, this Casio is about the best yet--it is very attractive (in my opinion) and if it is not closely scrutinized, it looks to be a lot more expensive than it is. The watch itself is excellent. Now.....about the band. The band is really big. Your wrist would have to be about the size of your ankle to match the size of the band. Okay, so the band needs to be adjusted. So what? So this--the band is fiendishly difficult to work with! Remember, I said I have owned lots of different watches and none of them, not ONE of them, was nearly, not-anywhere-close to being as hard to deal with as this one. I found a brief video on YouTube that gave me enough info to get started, but by the time I was done improvising, my desk was covered with tools of all sorts, including, mind you, a hammer. Wrapping this up, let me say that I finally accomplished the chore, the band fits well, and I am very pleased with my new Casio. If you aren't somewhat skilled in the used of small hand tools, and don't know someone who is, it is possible that you will have to take this to a jewelry/watch store for help. And there goes your savings. I cannot understand how a company that makes as many watches as Casio can justify using such crazy-ridiculous bands as these. User-friendly they ain't. User-unfriendly for sure.

'Cuz you're not replacing it with a leather strap, Nato strap or another bracelet. The spring bars on the watch are only about 10mm long. And , as others have pointed out there are only two positions of micro adjustment. I wear mine on the tight side rather than too loose and jingly.The module on my watch is a good one, has only gained two seconds in the last couple of months. I like the looks although I could do without the 'rivets'. The dial looks good although '10 year battery'' is a bummer. You'll have a hard time scratching the crystal as it's recessed deeply by the high bezel. Overall nice watch for the money.

I usually don't take time to write reviews ordinarily, but this watch DEMANDS IT! I have had my watch now for 6 years and to be honest it is one GREAT BUY!..It is no piece of junk!..The stainless band is VERY high quality steel, with a secure snap-lock when put on, The 10 year battery saves throwing this watch in a drawer after a year or so like the usual brands end up. The crystal has never been scratched yet, and I use this watch for both hard-construction work, and dress! I am an ex- military officer that expects accuracy in a watch. THIS WATCH IS THE BEST WATCH I HAVE EVER OWNED FOR ACCURACY! I paid about 26 dollars for it on another site, but 6 years later, I find that it can be purchased here on Amazon for even less!!The most complaints I have read about this watch is the generous size of the band. Well, I happen to be a larger person and it fits me, with a little of the band in excess, but not enough that needs shortening..I would 'stack' the quality of this watch up against any brand of watches costing hundreds of dollars more, and I still would pick this watch, ANYTIME!!If you seek decor, accuracy, and longevity in a watch, look no further!! You have found it here!!

The battery died at 9 years. Affordable price and good quality so far.I purchased this Casio watch again.The band is a little hard to adjust because it requires small tools to push down and remove the joint piece.You can find how to do it at Youtube. Otherthan that, it is very affordable watch for men.
