It is a very good looking watch at a very decent price. I bought it because I wanted a digi analog for when I travel. On a trip it is nice to have an alarm and a timer and a nice looking watch that would not cost too much to replace if lost. The display is nice, the watch is easy to set. I put on a NATO style nylon strap that to me look better and does not make my wrist sweat like the original one. I got compliments on this. The cons are: lume does not last long and there is no illuminator light. the digital display is a bit small and hard to read in low light, but at the same time a larger display would have impacted negatively on the look of the watch. the hands are a bit short and one morning I woke up and I could not instantly tell if it was 6:20 or 7:20. the bezel rotates freely. it is easy to move it accidentally. Overall I would buy this watch again. I was conflicted between this and the Casio MDV 106 that looks a bit more attractive and is 200m rated, but is analog only and looks a bit like a Seiko or Rolex. I feel the AMW 320 has a more original design and is more attractive anyway.Read full review
I bought the Casio Sports Watch because I am hard on wristwatches and I felt that a dive- style watch might be able to take the abuse. Also, the large size of the watch face, black face and glow in the dark numerals were easier for my old eyes to see. I have had the watch several weeks now, and I have no complaints. As expected , it is quite easy to read under all conditions. It came with detailed instructions, making it easy to set up the digital portion of the dial - date, second time zone and stopwatch. I have not actually used these functions, except the date portion, but they're there if I need them. Only time will tell how long it will continue to function as expected, but so far I am VERY happy with my purchase and would recommend this watch to others. In the interests of complete disclosure, I must say that this is the SECOND watch of this model that I have purchased. The first one was DOA... I set the watch and put it on the night stand. By morning it had lost several hours. Winding the stem refused to move either of the hands. At this time, I view this as an aberration, and PROBABLY does not reflect on the rest of the watches in this line. The band on this watch is rubber. I wasnt sure if I would like this, as I'm used to a steel bracelet style band. However, I do like this band - I sweat a lot while working and the rubber does not hold the moisture and remains comfortable at all times.Read full review
The band was dry rotted and broke into pieces the first day. I bought a new one for $14.00 so not too bad, after all the watch is a few decades old. The watch itself needed a good cleaning but now it looks and works OK!

Casio Divers Watch 100M AMW-320R Module 2701 "Arnie" Blue Dial Edition History: The AMW-320 is one of the longest running analog/digital watches for Casio. It was featured in many movies as well, Arnold Schwarzenegger wore it in the 1990 comedy hit Kindergarten Cop. It went through couple of module changes through its history: original was module 358 (1 button left / 1 button right); then module 1374 (2 buttons on left); the recent ones are module 2701 and 5351 (also 2 buttons on left, not sure what other difference). Even for the newest module version, some of the models (color & face design variations) are pretty hard to find. In addition, some of the related products, like the solar AMWS320 and solar atomic WVA320, are very hard to be found for sale also. Looks like Casio either stopped or cut down on the production. Or may be there are a lot of collectors out there for them. Also the owners probably just like them too much and not easily let them go.Read full review

This is the third AMW320 I have owned in 20 years; the first two were gold, but the black face with light hands are easier to read in limited light. The first two had to be re-set every week to correct a 5-second gain, but the newest one never seems to go off. I like the 2-time-zone digital, day-date, the analog face, the 2-way rotating bezel makes it easy to measure both countdown and elapsed time. It is too bad Casio stopped making the AMW320s as the reviews of its replacement has yielded much poorer reviews, based reportedly on inferior quality control. I was fortunate to get one of the last new ones from a chap in Brooklyn with the original black rubber band. When I unpackaged it, it was less than 15 seconds fast and has kept perfect time since.
