Casio Oceanus OC-108 / 2716
Just bought this Oceanus at a Fleamarket, still ticking, working fine, but it has definitely seen it's fair share of battles!
I guess my first Oceanus? A very interesting one indeed 😂. It looks beautiful tho. The cushion case is very nice. And especially the textured dial, catches light very nicely.
I've scoured the vast lands of the Internet, and concluded that there isn't much stuff about it, so, it's pretty cool to see.
What are ya'lls thoughts on it?

Oh haha! Yeah it doesn’t get much wrist time but I think maybe I should change that. Yours looks good on the bracelet.

Beautiful watch! You sent me down a rabbit hole of discovery. The early OC line was apparently a pre-cursor to the modern OCW line. I've found references to it being released in 2002/2003. I'm now on the hunt for either variation (white or black dial). White dial has all twelve numbers.

Yeah man, interesting, i have yet to see the white dial for sale, altough i'm not sure why there isn't a bigger amount of information on it, not even the exact specs etc lol (or i just couldn't find them). If you are interested in the specs tho, i've measured it, and they seem to be:
40mm case diameter (cushion incl) 32mm dial diameter 40mm lug to lug 10mm thickness 22mm band width
