Is it really waterproof enough to swim in?

Yes. It is rated to 200 meters, which covers swimming, snorkeling and light diving. Rinse it with fresh water after saltwater use.

Does it have a screw-down crown?

No. The crown is push-pull, so set the time and date with the crown pushed fully in before getting it wet.

How long does the battery last?

Casio rates it at about three years. A jeweler can replace the battery when the watch stops.

Can I put a different strap on it?

Yes. It uses standard spring bars, so many 22 mm straps fit, including nylon and leather.

How does it compare with a Seiko diver?

It offers similar dive-watch styling and water resistance for much less. A Seiko adds better finishing, a metal bracelet option and often a screw-down crown.

Is it too big for smaller wrists?

The case is about 44 mm, which wears large. Shoppers with slim wrists should try one on or check the lug-to-lug measurement first.

Our take on the Men's MDV106-1AV Stainless Steel Watch

The Casio MDV106-1AV is a budget three-hand analog dive watch with a stainless steel case, a black resin strap and 200-meter water resistance. It has a unidirectional rotating bezel, a date window and a simple black-and-white dial that is easy to read. It suits people who want real dive-watch looks and water resistance without paying dive-watch money. Against pricier divers it lacks sapphire crystal, a screw-down crown and a metal bracelet, but owners rate it highly for value and toughness.
