Pairing: what this watch goes with

Black crocodile-textured strap and silver case - a combination that looks equally good with a business suit and everyday jeans.

Distinction: why this model

Among similarly priced analog watches, Casio MTP-V005L-1B stands out with several details at once. First, the Japanese movement is confirmed by the inscription right on the dial - not just a marketing claim. Second, the metal box included is not packaging to be thrown away, but a full-fledged storage case. Third, the crocodile-skin textured strap gives the model the appearance of a higher price class without the corresponding cost.
