TBWS: The Casio Duro is the kind of purchase that doesn’t require a committee meeting or a spreadsheet to justify. Casio’s official site lists the price at $84.95, though street prices can drop to around $50. Even at its full retail price, there’s a surprising amount of watch here. The stainless steel case has more thoughtful finishing than we’d expect, the unidirectional bezel feels satisfying to operate, and the 200 meters of water resistance gives the Duro genuine everyday versatility. Add the accuracy and convenience of its quartz movement, and it’s difficult to identify many areas where Casio has made compromises that meaningfully detract from the experience.
