There are 201 casio marlin for sale on Etsy, and they cost $47.59 on average. The most common casio marlin material is silicone. The most popular color? For $50 this is a serious watch with great cred. It's a legendary Casio, but besides this credential, it's also a beautiful stainless steel chunky and stylish sporty watch for everyday use. Look, this one has a serious black dial with a cool marlin logo on it that claims water resistency to 200M. The Casio Duro Marlin MDV106-1A is one of the most straightforward, easy-to-love quartz divers I've ever experienced.

This model also came with a (very hard to find) metal bracelet, but the rubber strap suits it perfectly.
