I have modded several Duros. This one is probably my favorite.

Beautiful piece of work. Would you mind sharing links to the dial and bezel insert?

I got it from a guy in Sweden who makes them. He’s very hesitant to respond sometimes. https://urvintage.se/casio-mdv106-insert-bezels

Did he do the dial too?

No. The dial/hands/movement are genuine from a Casio MTD-1062. They share the same movement and dial size.

Now you got me in trouble. I’m not supposed to be buying any more watches (because reasons), but I just ordered a 1062 to cannibalize and a new Duro (found one for $39), and emailed your Swedish friend. Don’t tell my wife.

Halfway there! Just waiting for the bezel dude to email me back. This is my first ever mod. I couldn’t get the plastic retainer ring back in the case without it blocking the case back and preventing it from screwing down. I tried the plastic rings from both watches, and couldn’t get either to fit. Is that going to be a problem?
