Simply love the angles on this one and it sits very comfortably on the wrist too!

More pics of a watch made obsolete by smartphones...




An effective clasp to help the bracelet remain thin...

Apparently this model is still in production though Casio's page doesn't show a steel version for it. The 300page Databank doesn't have a version in steel but this 150page one has (even one in gold I believe). However, this was the only piece I found after looking for it for a while (and the shop only had one piece). The store owner said it's been sitting in his shelf for about 1-2 years. Most shops have the black plastic version.

I am surprised that I am liking the watch more that I had expected.

lots of pics of the black one around and many shops have them too  ;D

there are also other colour variations (instead of the black border on steel, you get white, green, etc) that you can find via google.

i wouldnt mind grabbing a gold tone DBC-610GA-1D if i come across one.
