Introduction: This is probably the most complete Casio Poseidon OCEANUS strategy on the whole network.

Casio, a household name, has taken the top spot in terms of annual watch shipments with its watch sea tactics.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Casio's best-selling watches, which sell hundreds of thousands of pieces at every turn, have become a "street watch" that everyone will wear in their lives.

At present, there are more than 2121 Casio watches on sale on the Chinese official website.

Among them, not everyone is familiar with the OCEANUS series, which takes Casio's top high-end route.

The Yamagata factory, top-of-the-line materials, full functionality, unique design, all this is used by Casio for the Poseidon OCEANUS collection.

The most talked-about thing, and the most smiling one, is this sentence "You buy a Casio for more than 20,000 yuan?"

For the OCEANUS series of watches that are only spoken on the Internet, I think I should publish a guide.

In order to make the article as complete as possible, I will continue to update the version below. The full text is about 1W words, it is recommended to collect and read again, and the reading time is estimated to be 15 minutes.

1. Introduction of the OCEANUS brand

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Oceanus, the most high-end collection of Casio watch brands, has the slogan "Elegance, Technology".

Casio spares no effort to integrate all its watch technology into the Oceanus series, Casio watch designers have put elegance into the design language, elegant art and cutting-edge technology can be effectively combined in one watch, which is exactly the positioning of Oceanus.

"That touch of blue" is a description of Oceanus, the god of the sea. Its blue originates from the ocean, but its blue is ever-changing, making people fall in love with a touch of blue and find a blue that suits them.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation
  • It is said that the creation of Oceanus, the god of the sea, was inspired by the fact that when the head of the Casio brand traveled to Europe, he would see gentlemen wearing a very elegant watch. He thought about it and realized that Casio didn't have a particularly elegant watch that matched a suit under its emphasis on technology. So when he returned to the company, he began to create a watch model that combines "elegance + technology".
The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation
  • Casio has a well-known ability to resist manufacturing and high quality, and Casio has quite a lot of technological innovation.

The high-end Oceanus does not cut this and that like a chef with exquisite knife skills, but "the whole system is standard"

Whether it's "multi-station radio wave timing", "solar charging", or "100-meter water resistance", you name it.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation
  • Since it is the most high-end series, the exquisite materials must be undoubtedly the "standard configuration of the whole series".

The standard case and bezel of Oceanus are made of titanium, and the strap is made of titanium alloy. Thanks to the lightweight, corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant characteristics of titanium, Oceanus can achieve a slim and non-heavy shape while taking into account complex processes and functions.

Even the crown knob will be meticulously made of titanium, with the logo of Oceanus, and some of them also use rose gold design, just like the golden sand beach on the coast.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Other watches with steel strips and steel cases on the market often weigh 180g and 200g, just like wearing an iPhone 15 Pro on your wrist, which is too tired.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

And Oceanus has achieved an astonishing 80g~90g, and it is not just a matter of wearing comfort.

  • Artificial sapphire glass is naturally needless to say, the most talked about is the use of complex technology for artificial sapphire glass cutting, this amazingly beautiful work of art needs to be manufactured under the process of complex process, low yield process, very test the level of industrial production.
The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation
Newly developed "spiral cut bezel": First, a thick faux sapphire glass ring is finely cut to form a 24-sided shape. Subsequently, another 48 facets were cut to create a strong wavy texture. On the back, a gradient effect from light blue to dark blue is displayed through gradient evaporation technology, creating a deep and beautiful blue wavy pattern.
The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

You can understand that if you cut it a little wrong, the entire bezel will be scrapped and cannot be produced.

  • Under the full technology function + exquisite materials + complex process + unique design, it is an industrialized product, a high-quality product for industrial mass production, rather than the "handmade" premium of some European watches.

Of course, the pricing of this Casio's top Poseidon Oceanus will naturally not be cheap, and the reference price is between 1W+ and 2W5. There is a 3Hands sub-series that is cheaper, this is another one, I am full of complaints!

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation
The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

To sum up, Oceanus, as Casio's most high-end brand series, has a palace-level presence in the Casio bezel.

If you want to "graduate" in owning a Casio watch, then owning a "touch of blue" Oceanus will be your graduation certificate.

2nd, the

Top quality and top craftsmanship must be matched with top factories.

The Oceanus watch series, as a product of industrial manufacturing, must be mass-produced by industrial factories.

Casio's Yamagata factory in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, is the "Jerusalem in the heart" of Casio fans.

It represents Casio's highest industrial requirements, and it is also a manifestation of Casio's pursuit of a long-lasting manufacturing level.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Premium Production Line更指的是有别于其他产品线的工厂:

More demanding dust-free fine chemical factory environment,

More professional personnel must have specific qualifications to be admitted,

More mechanically automated robotic arms and automated production lines,

Stricter quality control.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

In view of Japan's years of counterfeiting and exaggerating the spirit of craftsmanship, I have reservations about this.

However, at present, only Casio MTG, Proteck, Poseidon are manufactured in the mountain factory, and the cousins who have posted orders on the market, and the quality control is good.

Whether it is so mysterious or not, it is up to you to see what you think.

But at least one thing is certain, the Poseidon Oceanus series is made in the whole chain of mold design, manufacturing, dyeing, assembly, and packaging, rather than some G-SHOCK series that have to be assembled in Southeast Asia for cost control (assembly quality control, you know).

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Based on my experience of visiting several "lighthouse factories" in China, Casio's Oceanus production line meets the factory requirements, but does not meet the "lighthouse factory" standard.

If you are interested, you can search for "Lighthouse Factory" to see what our highest factory standards are in the world.

Jointly selected by the World Economic Forum in Davos in collaboration with management consulting firm McKinsey, the "Lighthouse Factory" project is known as the "world's most advanced factory", an exemplary demonstrator of "digital manufacturing" and "globalization 4.0", representing the highest level of intelligent manufacturing and digitalization in the global manufacturing industry today. As of January 2023, the number of "lighthouse factories" in the world has reached 132, and the number of "lighthouse factories" in China has increased to 50, continuing to rank first in the world.

3. Series classification

I once made a table that showed the various series classifications under the Casio brand.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Casio, which is a tactical watch, will try its best to match the needs of all scenarios, and then release a series.

The Oceanus series is also, as an independent product line, an independent factory manufacturing high-end series, is bound to be more differentiated needs.

In terms of the subdivision of high-end products, there is really very little information about Poseidon.

(2W Poseidon at every turn, I can't buy them all and test them all, right)

After looking at a huge amount of data and comparisons, I sorted out the chart of the classification of the Oceanus subseries.

(It's not easy to organize, you can collect it first and then continue to look at it, so as not to get lost)

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

T Series· Classic Line Series Standard

Oceanus' T series, the standard Classic Line series.

  • Models start with OCW-T
  • The price is between 5000 yuan ~ 8000 yuan

The standard series of Oceanus, the whole series of standard things it has.

And more advanced ones such as "Edo Kiriko", "24-sided cut", etc., are not available.

However, in this series, there will be "Awa Blue Dye Coloring Made in Tokushima Prefecture, Japan", a special blue.

If you're going to experience Oceanus, I personally recommend buying some other collections, or else I'd rather buy Casio's basic EDIFICE.

Let's take a look at a T-Series OCW-T4000ALE-2A.

  • The price is 8100 yuan.
The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

The OCW-T4000ALE-2A, which weighs 54g, has the thinness and lightness of Oceanus.

Bluetooth connection, six radio waves, all enjoy.

The titanium case bezel is not missing, not to mention the Casio standard with 100-meter water resistance.

In terms of recognition, it is relatively poor.

P Series· CACHALOT series sperm whale

The CACHALOT Sperm Whale collection is a model of the Oceanus that focuses on diver's watches.

(Of course, there are brands with CACHALOT sperm whales as the brand name, and Casio Poseidon is the series)

CACHALOT is the French word for sperm whale, so let's use it to express hope for more elegance.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

The sperm whale is a huge deep-sea overlord with a body length of up to 18 meters and a weight of more than 50 tons, making it the largest toothed whale and the deepest diving mammal.

As we all know, diver's watches are known for their heaviness, size, and excellent water resistance, just like sperm whales, which are full of the depth and weight of the deep sea.

DARE YOU REALLY SAY THAT THE CACHALOT SPERM WHALE THAT CAN DIVE 200 METERS IS REALLY A WATCH FOR 200 METERS.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Oceanus· The CACHALOT Sperm Whale series is designed with the usual rotating bezel of diver's watches, which is a time indicator specially designed for diving.

Cousins can take a look at the following supplementary knowledge:

The rotating bezel serves as a reminder of the time to dive. The scale of the rotating bezel is 15, 30, and 45, because the average diving oxygen tank can only last 45 minutes (there are some cases marked with a 60-minute scale). The first 15 minutes are coloured or specially labeled, as divers strictly follow the strict need to make a 15-minute safety stop on ascent for decompression. Usually, you can tell the time taken for the dive by turning the bezel to align the 0 scale on the bezel with the minute hand while diving, and then looking at the scale on the bezel after the minute hand moves. Of course, you can also use a countdown, first know your dive time, turn the bezel to align the minute scale with the minute hand, and then the time when the minute hand goes to the 0 scale of the bezel is exactly your diving limit time. The rotation of the external bezel is mostly designed in a single counterclockwise direction, which is to ensure that the calculation time is only accounted for more and not less, so as to prevent the danger of delaying time. In recent years, the built-in chronograph bezel has no direction of rotation because the crown that controls the bezel must be locked before it can be launched.
The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Oceanus' CACHALOT sperm whale series has changed the design of the three-eye hour plate facing the 1296 and adopts a three-eye bezel design with two eyes and one small eye, which makes the entire dial more recognizable.

It is worth noting that the diameter of the CACHALOT sperm whale series is really large, even larger than the Longines Concas, I will post a picture for you to feel.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Picture from a cousin

Of course, because of the diving bezel design, the "Edo Kiriko" style that often appears in Casio Poseidon is often used in the CACHALOT sperm whale series.

It's very good-looking.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Diving is a sport, so the CACHALOT sperm whale series is a sporty design overall.

There are so many models with sporty designs that there are so many diver's watches to choose from.

So this series, it really depends on personal preference, don't run rank in the sports watch, and don't run rank in the diving watch.

S系列· Manta系列·蝠鲼 S系列· Manta for Ladies

The Manta series is the most recommended series of Oceanus, and the most important series is light and thin.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Mass production, limited editions, special designs, and special materials are all placed in the Manta series.

We often talk about "pro-son", and the Manta series is the "pro-son" of Oceanus, the god of the sea. Yes, it's still "pro-daughter", because Manta for Radiants was also designed.

S100S300S400S500S600S700,Manta每一代系列都有自己超高辨识度的设计,功能也是约加越多。

Manta, n. 双吻前口蝠鲼 (fú fèn), 魔鬼鱼, 毯魟;

Manta is what we often call manta rays, manta rays.

Manta rays are light and thin sea creatures in the sea, mysterious and full of specialness.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Therefore, the first watch released by Manta in 2007 was the thinnest all-metal analog radio solar-powered watch in the world at that time.

(With so many restrictions, are you afraid of the advertising law haha)

Slender, lightweight, elegant, and the blue color of the Poseidon collection, these elements are integrated into the entire Manta design.

Manta, which starts with S, has been developed so far that cutting-edge technology has been added.

Since the S300, the collection has matured to include a wide range of materials, functions, shapes and craftsmanship that are very confident and exaggerated.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

The Poseidon series has finally found its own definite route and has begun to output a blowout design model.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

One model a year, out of which is dizzying.

As the most fist series of Oceanus, of course, it is elegance + technology.

这款OCW-S6000SW-2A,全球限量350只。

Price: 22,000 yuan. Newly developed "spiral cut bezel".

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

First, the thick faux sapphire glass ring is finely cut to form a 24-sided shape. Subsequently, another 48 facets were cut to create a strong wavy texture. On the back, a gradient effect from light blue to dark blue is displayed through gradient evaporation technology, creating a deep and beautiful blue wavy pattern.

Echoing the bezel, the dial also features a gradient evaporation from light blue to blue, blended with the artificial sapphire crystal bezel.

In addition, the crown, date window, hour markers at 12 o'clock and the seconds hand are in rose gold, inspired by the golden sands of the coast. These details add a special touch to the watch.

It's so beautiful, it's hard to cut on a man-made sapphire.

This OCW-S7000C-2A was only released in October 2023.

Limited to 1,200 pieces worldwide.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

The theme is the sparkle of the city shining on the ocean.

Laser processing of different depths and textures is carried out on the artificial sapphire glass on the bezel to reveal the sparkle of the ocean. The bezel is equipped with a speedometer function and adds a touch of sportiness to the beauty.

The dial features the same gradient color that transitions from purple to blue as the bezel. Just as the surface of the sea reflects the light of the city, each light shines on the wrist with a delicate glow.

The hyperboloid faux sapphire glass is treated with an anti-reflective coating on both sides, while the case and bracelet are treated with a titanium carbide finish.

In addition to the standard six-station radio wave reception function that can be corrected independently, it is also equipped with a function to connect with a smartphone to correct the time, and these high-functional designs are housed in a slim case that is only 9.5 mm thick.

In general, if you buy Oceanus, you should buy the S series, which is the Manta manta series. Highlight the personality, top craftsmanship + top function, absolute value!

G series

The G series, the model starts with OCW-G, and has a global GPS timing system more than the S series. Of course, you can understand that it is a higher version of the S series in terms of functionality, pursuing the ultimate in the extreme, and the price is usually above 1W5, and it is claimed that the error of 30W per year is 1 second.

G for GPS, which is not difficult to understand, is Oceanus, which is a global GPS timing system.

In 2014, Poseidon released the world's first all-metal GPS watch at that time, the OCW-G1000.

In 2017, Poseidon released another G-series GPS watch with Bluetooth, the OCW-G2000C.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Later, an OCW-G2000RA-1A was updated, with Bluetooth, GPS, solar energy, and six-bureau radio wave functions, and the DLC/titanium carbide treated case and strap have been finely polished.

Of course, the invisible areas have been strengthened, and the specially designed anti-magnetic panels have achieved JIS Class 1 anti-magnetic performance.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

But it is a pity that the update of the G series has begun to stagnate, and there has been no product update of the G series in recent years.

After all, after stuffing the GPS module, the weight of the whole watch has reached 101g, although it is also light and thin, but it is already the super upper limit weight of the Poseidon series.

There is currently a G1000G1100G1200G2000 on the market, and then it has not been updated.

I don't know if next year will be the 20th anniversary of the release of Oceanus and the 10th anniversary of the G series, will there be a new product release?

3 Hands Models

3 Hands Models, the main simple, no three-eye design, the price is less than 5000 yuan.

I'd say it's ugly, it's better to buy another watch or buy Eddie Fes.

The positioning is an entry-level Poseidon, and even the material is made of stainless steel, so I really can't complain.

This is also the god of the sea? Let's take a look.

This model is the OCW-70PJ-7A 3Hands Models series, which feels cheap no matter how you look at it.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Quartz watches with subdials, you can choose the cheap Citizen, you can choose the Tissot Little Beauty, you can choose the Longines Heart Moon series.

But it's not worth spending 5000 to buy a 3 Hands Models series that is just a blue bezel + dial number.

No one thinks you're wearing the god of the sea, although it's also titanium and solar energy.

No one is too rough to do it.

Buy carefully, and even I think 3 Hands Models is better to kick out of the Poseidon series.

Limited edition

In recent years, Poseidon limited editions have almost always been placed in the Manta series, that is, models that start with S.

像全球限量350只的OCW-S6000SW-2A,全球限量1200只的OCW-S7000C-2A。

One of the features of the limited edition is that it is limited edition labeling.

At present, there is no limited number for the limited edition of 1,200 and 500.

And there are 50 and 100 of them.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Sign in this place.

The limited edition of Casio Oceanus is really limited, and it will follow the form of the more difficult the design, the more difficult the process, the more expensive the material, and the more expensive the price.

Sometimes what you like at first glance is a limited edition.

I consulted with my cousin and bought a limited edition S600SWS that was directly supplied by the official, and I was very happy.

Limited editions are also usually around a 50% premium over production models, and this piece is a matter of opinion.

It's also a little strange that Oceanus, I don't even know what category it is.

4. Characteristic design

Edo Kiriko

Edo Kiriko, an artistic term, is a craft.

Originated in Edo, Japan in 1834, "Kiriko" is a process of cutting and grinding delicate patterns on the surface of crystals with emery by hand.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

Isn't there a bit of "craftsman spirit" IQ tax in it.

In the 5th year of Tenpo (1834), Kagaya Kubei, who was a manufacturer of glass products in Kodenma Town, near Nihonbashi, learned the technique learned from Osaka and carved it with emery to imitate the British-made cutting glass, and the delicate construction method became the beginning of Edo Kiriko.

通俗来讲,就是切玻璃,英语也叫“cut glass”。

Casio Oceanus also adopts this "artistic processing technology" in the bezel.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

The difference is that Oceanus is cut on artificial sapphire glass.

Although it is also glass, it is sapphire glass with a hardness of 9.

It has the advantage of being harder than ordinary glass, and the price is relatively high, so it is mainly used to make high-end watch crystals.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

This process results in a better-looking bezel and is more complex.

However, the strong hardness of sapphire makes the material brittle, so the yield rate is worrying after cutting.

If the yield rate is worrisome, it will cause scarcity.

Sure enough, there is a price to be paid for being good-looking.

It is a lacquer craft technique, and it refers specifically to lacquerware made in Japan or with a Japanese style.

Its process is equivalent to gold painting, or lacquer lacquer, that is, the pattern is painted with gold, some with a kind of gold leaf, and some can reach two to three kinds, with shades changing, imitating the effect of ink.

In Japan, it is also called "powdered maki-e".

Simply put, it can be understood as a highly skilled painting process.

In the old days, foreigners called porcelain "China" and lacquerware "Japan", and the status of Japanese lacquerware can be seen.

There are not many models of Oceanus that use the "Maki-e" lacquer process, and it is only designed with the theme of Yutaro Shimoide's "eternal whisper".

Next is the chronicle of the Oceanus, which has been strengthened from generation to generation, starting with the first OCW-500 in 2004.

Until 2023, more and more advanced models have appeared.

It is said that next year, 2024, will be the 20th anniversary of the Oceanus series, and there will be very special models, so wait and see.

This chapter of the calendar is for archaeological purposes, and if you are not interested, you can skip directly to the "classic model".

Most of the typical numbers of Sea Nerve are concentrated in the S series Manta, and the others are evenly distributed in the T series Classic Line, P series CACHALOT sperm whales, and G series.

I'll pick one from each series, and let's enjoy it together.

If this watch is only cut from metal, I don't think it's a big deal.

The point is, these intricate 24-sided, 48-sided, gradients are made on sapphire.

The elements of sun, sand and sea are often combined, which is why the S6000SW crown, date window, 12 o'clock and seconds hand of this Manta are all in rose gold.

It's like a golden sand beach by the sea, reflecting the entire blue sea.

Titanium case bezel, titanium bracelet, 100-meter water resistance, solar power, Bluetooth, radio time and more are not to mention, a must-have.

The key is that it is 88g, light, vigorous, powerful and dynamic.

The price of 18,500 yuan, I want to say congratulations to this cousin, Casio graduated.

OCW-P2000

CACHALOT sperm whale series, the most classic is definitely P2000, and almost all of the CACHALOT sperm whale series posted on major cousin forums is P2000.

The P2000 comes in several colors, including the OCW-P2000C in red and blue and the OCW-P2000-1A in dark and light blue.

Occasionally, there is a discount of 7~8% off, and 4000 is also a good price.

After all, it is also produced by the Yamagata Factory, and it is considered a cost-effective sea god.

No wonder it sells well.

G2000C搭载了世界首创三重接收机芯模块(Connected Engine3-WayModule),可透过 GPS 与世界六局电波接收时间信号。

OCW-G2000 also adopts the classic three-dimensional hierarchical three-needle and three-eye design, and the 3D three-dimensional two-color design is blue and white at the hour, making the vision more three-dimensional.

What's more interesting is that there is a small box in the lower right corner at 4 o'clock, which provides time switching between different cities.

It's a pity that since the release of the G2000C, there has been no update of this new model of this series.

7. Purchase channels

There are currently only two channels to buy.

The strongest strategy of Casio Poseidon OCEANUS series: positioning, analysis, model recommendation, appreciation

The first new regular channel is to buy it on the official website of Casio.

I don't know why, there are very few offline counters (you can default to none).

The JD Taobao flagship store is also completely absent.

As a result, before 2021, Poseidon can only go to Japan to buy it, or buy it through some Hong Kong channels.

Now it's not a pull, it is ordered directly on the official website, there is no middleman at all, and it is sent directly to your home.

Of course, if you have friends in Japan, you can ask them to buy them on your behalf.

It is said that there is usually a 20% discount, and then the human flesh is brought back to China.

As for what seafood market and the like you said, although there are almost no fake sea gods, you can't stop human nature, trust me not to do it.

8. Models are not recommended

First of all, I don't recommend buying all the dark ones.

海神Oceanus以一抹蓝著称,黝黑款不如去买MT-GMR-G。

If you have to say that you like the darkness of the deep sea, then I didn't say it.

Seriously? That touch of "black"?

Then, all the 3 Hands Models series, I don't recommend buying.

I even suspect that the products that are not up to the top are developed and handed over to the leaders, and there is no product power at all.

So many different brands of products with the same positioning are doing very well, there is no need to be a god of sea for the sake of the god of the sea, and even this series cannot be called the god of the sea.

Are you serious about being so rough???

Finally, I don't recommend buying the old model.

This is like Iron Man's Mark I first generation machine, which is relatively rough and less designed than the craftsmanship of recent years.

If you haven't seen S5000S6000S7000 yet, and then you look at the OCW-500, then you are really a retro expert.

Moreover, the official channels have been discontinued, and these models can only exist in the second-hand market, which has created a problem of poor condition, which is a headache.

9. Other gossip

Poseidon Oceanus as Casio's top-end series (and of course MT-GMR-G),

In terms of function and workmanship, it is in line with the high-end positioning.

As an industrialized mass product, Oceanus uses less "handmade" IQ tax consumers and more "new technology and new technology" to impress people's hearts.

As a Casio graduation watch series, it can be called the top product of Japanese watches, at least from the current major consumer watches, the craft control is still good.

As for Casio's sales method of Oceanus in China, it will be launched on the Casio official store from 2021, and I think my cousins will no longer have to bear all kinds of risks that the purchasing agents buy back.

As a high-end series, Oceanus has very little information on the Internet, and it took me nearly two weeks to sort out this article.

But the more I look at it, the more I am planted by Poseidon's "touch of blue", and the more I write, the more excited I become.

2024 will mark the 20th anniversary of the launch of the Oceanus collection, and I guess there will be even more amazing models to come.

This article will continue to be updated, interested friends can like and follow the collection, so that when I update new content, the upper column of Zhihu will remind you.
