The Casio BG-169CM-2 is a clean, uncomplicated execution. Movement and Functions \n A quartz movement drives the watch. That means accuracy which needs no daily attention, no winding routine, and no rate drift to correct. \n \n Water resistance – 20 ATM (200 metres) \n Mineral crystal – protecting the dial \n \n Water Resistance and Everyday Durability \n The watch is rated to 20 ATM, or 200 metres of static pressure. In practical terms that covers rain, hand washing, showering and recreational swimming. It is not a dive watch, so leave it behind for scuba diving and keep it away from high-pressure water jets. Make sure the crown is fully seated before any contact with water. \n A mineral crystal protects the dial – harder than acrylic and more shatter-resistant than sapphire, which is a sensible trade-off on a case this size. \n Care and Maintenance \n None of the care below is onerous. It is the difference between a watch that ages well and one that simply gets old. Have the battery replaced by a watchmaker rather than a kiosk – a proper service reseats the case gasket at the same time, which is what actually preserves the water rating. A flat battery left in the case is the single most common cause of avoidable movement damage. Rinse the case in fresh water after a swim, especially in the sea, and dry it before it goes back on. \n Store it away from magnets and out of direct heat, and it will hold its rate and its finish. \n About the Brand and Ownership \n Casio watches sit in the sweet spot between fashion and function: recognisable design, real build quality, and a price that does not ask you to think of the watch as an investment. Quartz keeps the running costs near zero – a battery every few years and the occasional seal check is the whole of the maintenance schedule. Kept out of direct heat, away from magnets and wiped down after a sweaty day, a watch like this will outlast several phones. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Attribute Specification \n Brand Casio \n Model / Reference BG-169CM-2 \n Gender Women’s \n EAN 4549526426544 \n Crystal Mineral \n Movement Quartz \n Water Resistance 20 ATM / 200 metres \n \n Buying With Confidence \n Buying a watch online comes down to trusting the seller, so here is exactly what you get.
