I absolutely love this classic durable and reliable watch. I've had it for over 10 years and still running and in nice condition.

Any similar European alternatives you know of and can possibly recommend? As far as I know CASIO itself is Japanese, but I was kinda curious if I could support "local" and get an European one.

There is no real alternative to the basic Casio models.

Yeah, honestly they're great.

As far as brands are concerned, replacing with Japanese alternatives is just as, or even more, valid as European alternatives; but that's not for this sub.

Okay so my search has been in vain.

Thanks for the info, I'll keep using CASIO since they are really good!
