I have ordered from this company and will again in the future. If you need a watch this company probably has it and at discounted prices! (no affiliation) http://www.wristwatch.com/ I myself have worn a Casio watch for the last 20 to 25 years. I 've owned a GShock and 2 multi sensor watches. I gave the Gshock to a friend after wearing it about 7 to 8 years, I replaced the battery and band once. I purchased a Casio 2 sensor watch with temp,altimeter and barometer. I have purchased one battery and one strap for that also. The original battery lasted about 5 or 6 years. 2 years ago I was given a Casio 3 sensor watch, temp,altimeter,barometer and compass.( I know there's four but they call it a Triple sensor) The barometer I use all the time which is useful in watching the weather. These watches are water resistant to 100 meters. I have worn them diving,swimming/snorkeling and paddling. I have never seen one leak or condensate under the crystal. I have never broken a pin but I have replaced the strap.(They sell watch bands also) All have ripped just above the hole where the band is clasped. This maybe caused because I keep my band tight on my wrist. They are not $10.00 watches though, the link below is similar to the watch I have now, priced at $117.00. http://www.wristwatch.com/depot.asp,,sku,,cas-prt40c1v,,idx,,2467,,slt,,37753.6719560185 Hopefully, I have offered some worthwhile info.
