Casio MTD-1001 Analog Watch #wristcheck

This months proof of watch or #wristcheck (inspired by ⁠Kev Quirk) is the Casio MTD-1001 with caliber 1333 and a quartz clockwork.

Design#

A solid analog watch with weekday and day of month at 3 o'clock. Classified as a divers watch it has a pretty big dial within a 44mm metal casing leading to big hands that are very readable. Hands and numbers are phosphorus. The counter-clockwise rotating bezel does 60 clicks per revolution. The screw-down crown is at 3'o clock. The rubber band is pretty long.

Storytime#

I bought it a long time ago and just saw that it needed some love (and a new battery) and thought it is a good opportunity to wear it for the first time. I wear one watch as a daily driver for one month straight. Wearing it for seven days now I can say that it is a heavy watch. You feel that you are wearing it. To be honest I completely forgot about that watch as it was a bulk of 5 or 6 watches and this was not the one I bought the bulk for.

This might be the first longform note about a watch from my collection.
