Is This The Most UNDERRATED Casio Ever?

In this Casio MTD-1053D review video, I analyze this viable 40mm Casio Duro dive watch alternative to see if this is the smaller diver we've been waiting for. After the failure of the MDV-10, the downsized MDV-106, is this the timepiece to fill the void? In this Casio MTD 1053 review, I'll be considering size, water resistance, construction, and a collection of other factors to see if it's any good.

Finally! My beloved sea watch gets a review from a big channel like yours! 2 summers in a row with 70 snorkelling sessions each summer and the watch delivers on it's water capabilities. I have it on a nato as i didn't like the bracelet and it looks even better. This model sells more than the duro here in greece as it is 30% cheaper and much better proportioned. Best vfm real diver you can get hands down. Glad you made a review Ben, i spammed you about this model 3 or four times and you reviewing it means a lot to me as a subscriber!

I've had a 1053 several months, the blue dial variant & the sunray dial really pops in the the sunlight & the red minute markers to the 15 on the bezel are a real contrast. OK the bracelet is a bit jangly & only 2 micro adjusts does make it tricky to get a perfect fit year round. The value for money is spot on and it offers a different look to the standard array of 200m divers in the budget bracket. I've also got the automatic version of the Invicta Pro Diver but the Casio 1053 gets lots more wrist time than the Invicta, it's a watch that's under the radar in my opinion.

Finally a watch RU-vidr covering the 1053☺️. As you mentioned it is a really good alternative to the Duro ,especially in some regions which the Duro isn't available ,like my country for example. I'm using the blue version as a daily for the last 3 years (which btw Casio was right about the battery it lasted exactly 3 years). It has been beaten and scratched due to the nature of my work (industrial ) but it has never failed me and the lume still lasts all night even with some overcast. The bracelet is the Achilles heel of that watch as you pointed out, the links after 2years became a little loose and the adjustment isn't that great although a simple link removal tool makes the job super easy For 50€ I really can't complain, most reliable watch I have possesed so far highly recommend it.

I have a MTD-1053 and I absolutely love it! A real hidden gem! The bracelet articulation is the best I’ve seen on any Casio including my more expensive Edifice EQB-1000. I wore it as my work watch and it was brilliant! The reason I no longer wear it at work is that the lack of micro adjustment on the clasp meaning I can’t seem to get that “Goldie Locks” fit, particularly in summer. The other issue I had is that I have to wear shaded protective eyewear at work and due to the comparatively small hands on the 1053 I couldn’t get a good read of the time without taking my glasses off 👨🏻‍🏭 I’ve switched to a Casio MTP-VD02D which has a much larger handset so it works much better for me despite the chrome plated resin case and the far inferior bracelet when compared to the 1053.

I got one of these three or four years ago. I’ve kept it on the original bracelet which is indeed not bad. The black bezel insert picked up scratches , I think it’s just plastic but apart from that it’s held up well. A very good watch. Edit: The bezel insert isn’t plastic but metal and upon checking it’s only got a few very minor scratches- doh! NB The bezel action on mine isn’t tinny - it’s crisp and precise with no backplay.

Sekonda did once produce a decent diver under the 'ONE by Sekonda' brand. 200M depth rating, 316L steel, solid links, decent bezel and lume. They don't seem to do anything comparable these days but mine's still going strong and yes, I did used to wear it whilst diving.

This watch used to be known as Casio Marlin MDV101, one of many Marlin series watches in the early 2000's. After they lost their right for the Marlin logo, they rebranded it under different names. Several other Marlin watches also received the same fate such as: MDV-700 = AMW-710 (with less water resist; 10 bar) MDV-102 = MTD-1048 (also 10bar WR) Also, certain model like MDV-701 has tide graph, moon phase, world time, thermometer function & auto EL backlight! Casio used to put all out into their Marlin watches.

great comment, I have the mdv 700 and mdv 102 in my collection and they are great watches, the new versions without the marlin logo are not that great but you still can get those at decent prices, this is useful in case you own an old marlin and you need to get a compatible replacement module or parts

It would be the most underrated Casio ever if it used either a tough solar module or the module 2719 aka Miyota 2S60 where the battery is CR2012 that lasts for 10 years minimum (and yes, you could fit a CR2016 there if you're careful enough). On a 3-year SR battery, it's a bummer.

I purchased the black version back in 2017 or 2018 it's a really good watch for the price I paid for it back then at around £49 in a sale. Perfect for my small size wrist. I purchased the blue version also for around the same price and the sunburst dial is a very nice touch to the watch. Good battery life also which in my experience has been around 3 years. Both really good watches at a reasonable price.

You can buy the MTD in both colors in Germany directly from Casio for 70 € + shipping. The dial is a bit disproportional compared to the big bezel and this "ring" on the dial makes it optical smaller as it is. I like the blanc pain design. But I never would consider the MTD as a "hommage" but of course the Spinnaker Fleuss. In order to compete with a Duro I think the MTP would be the better choice although it has a fixed bezel. Having said this I don´t know a good alternative to my black and gold Duro.

The Seiko budget brand Alba has a 200m diver for about 80 EUR, but it is as big as the original Duro: AS9S81X1 (and other colors including ice blue). You can also still find the 200m rated solar-powered Alba AEFD530 for about 110 EUR. My favorite under-the-radar Casio is the Edifice EF-121, more of an allrounder cross between dress watch and Explorer. The product photos online are horrible, in real-life it is a nice watch with a unique case shape.

Here in USA, Walmart has a deal I could not resist! I totally love my ridiculously cheap Invicta 9204 for USD 32.99 (NOT the "OB' model, just the plain 9204, difference being scalloped bezel vs "coin" edge). It is dainty at 37.5mm case diameter, and at 115 grams with band feels much lighter than my automatic Invicta 8926OB and 8928, which are both roughly 150 grams, depending on how many links you remove. The quartz movement makes it as good at time keeping, as any Rolex, so why would anybody spend 2 brand new cars' worth of money on a Rolex, when you can have the Invicta for the price of less than 2 lunches at a hamburger, fish and chips, or bratwurst kiosk?

Just got the blue ktd1053d, what a beautiful watch. Now if someone reviewing this watch could show us how to do the links i'd be most appreciative. Got it figured out, its very different strap from other Casio's. It has a pin blade type key. Need enough space underneath to knock the pin out, using one of those blocks where you have large oblong holes underneath. Actually easy to do when you get going.

You stated that the unit has ISO certified water resistance to 200m. Of course that's ISO22810, according to the spec sheet, which references "general" water resistance for all watches. Usually when one mentions ISO certification for a diver, they mean ISO 6425, which requires depth testing to 125% rated depth for at least two hours, OF EACH PIECE. ISO 22810 does not have such requirements and allows "type testing" to be performed. (translation: your individual watch more likely than not never got tested). Yes, we're talking about a Casio for less than a Benjamin, but I bristle at the idea that people intermingle "divers" with "dive watches". While these Casio "divers" sure look the part, if I need to go to depth during a dive, there's only one watch in my collection I'm taking with me. My ISO 6425 Diver's certified Citizen.
@S-Ltd1000
@S-Ltd1000 10 месяцев назад
I had to look this up when Ben mentioned ISO certified. So it seems the 200m rated watches are batch tested to a different standard. Interesting that every 6425 diver's watch are individually tested. I knew that happened with my Helm Vanuatu as I have the certificate but didn't realise that my promasters were subject to the same procedures.

@StrikeWarlock
@StrikeWarlock 10 месяцев назад
The other bright side about this watch is that due to it being a Duro, it should be faring better than automatics of the same age due to the fact that it uses quartz. Another issue is the automatic reliance on escapementa and how this is a factor for wear. As much respect I have for the likes of Seiko's SNK809, the issue it has is the fact that Seiko has discontinued the 7S26 movements to make room for the "newer" 4R36 which means that if your older Seiko breaks, getting it fixed or replaced is going to be harder to do so compared to newer Seiko watches due to Seiko no longer making the movements you can replace the broken movements with. Quartz on the other hand has less wear to worry about, but its not exactly immune to issues, theres still situations like battery leakage.

Io ho il modello blu ed è il mio orologio che indosso da più di 3 anni. Prima ne avevo un altro nero che ho perso dimenticato sulla spiaggia. Io ne sono davvero innamorato per la sua personalità che non copia in modo sfacciato nessun altro orologio, la sua affidabilità e le sue dimensioni. Non ho mai amato il duro per le sue dimensioni eccessive e,almeno qui in Italia, pochi amano orologi così grandi , quindi per molti può essere un rivale del Duro, anche se è nel catalogo casio da almeno 10 anni.

It’s like a quartz Orient Mako tbh. Though much more… industrial.

Would look better with the black resin band

New sub here. I saw some replicas of these watches here and they looked very like original.😂❤

Another Casio diver would be MTD-125D-1A2V

Looks like as if Longines Conquest had a child with a Duro, but then ended up with birth defects and ended up being quartz

The 1053 started as a Duro model anyway.

Great content. All the noise about 200 m is overrated in my opinion. The average person isn't diving that deep.

It isn't about diving. CASIO rates the 100m watches for swimming but also rates their 200m watches for high impact water sports such as jet skiing or even crazy sofa etc. If you only swim you're fine with 100m, if you want to be sure on all occasions you need 200m.

That looks great, on a rubber strap it would do the job very well 👍

Any Dive watch solar with led backlight? Man For the life of me I can't find any, I believe they don't exist.

casio duro mtd-1052 must be the closest thing you're looking for. Solar version would have problems with comedically small seconds hand or even lack of one

Casio never fails to put weird bezel notches on an otherwise normal/good looking watch

I own a number of Casio analogue watches including two duros. With all of my casios, the second hand hits every index. That is huge for my OCD brain. I loathe it when a second hand is poorly aligned.

Interesting piece, thank you! I think the EFV-130D is an even better alternative, especially with the white dial. Cheers!
