Casio Royale is the proper choice for these quarantine days when nobody knows the day or date.

Lol so true. I have to keep checking my phone for the date when I am setting a watch. Interesting times indeed.

Enjoyed the read.

Got fascinated by Bond watches because of a watch that's for sale in the M2M section - no funds so I'm going to miss out on it.- But this was quite a good read!

Love the Omegas and the Rolexes.

Loved Roger Moore as Bond, but reading this, not so much his taste in watches.

"Casio Royale" on Union Jack NATO.

With stay-at-home, I need something that can tell me what day it is!

This piece is unreal. Is the bezel cartel as well? Did you have to modify the bezel to fit a gen insert, or was this kind of plug and play? Also, the bezel teeth, are the scallops widened, or was this how it came from the factory? What a beautiful watch. Sorry, for all of the questions. Just sitting here admiring your watch.
