The Casio MTP-B146G-3AVDF is a distinguished quartz timepiece that combines vintage-inspired aesthetics with contemporary reliability. Encased in a polished gold-tone stainless steel case measuring 40.8 × 35 × 8 mm, this watch features a striking green dial that evokes the classic design language of mid-century horology. The dial is clean and legible, with applied gold-tone indices and matching hands that complement the case finish, while a day display at 12 o'clock and a date window at 3 o'clock add practical complications for daily wear.
At Cassim & Co., we are proud to be an authorised retailer for CASIO watches, ensuring that every timepiece we offer is backed by the manufacturer's international warranty and the assurance of genuine quality. This MTP-B146G model is powered by a precise Japanese quartz movement with an accuracy of ±20 seconds per month, running on an SR920SW battery with an approximate three-year lifespan. The movement's reliability makes this an ideal choice for those who appreciate uncomplicated daily wear without the maintenance requirements of a mechanical calibre.
The integrated gold-tone stainless steel bracelet is both robust and comfortable, secured by a one-touch three-fold clasp that ensures ease of use and security on the wrist. Weighing just 85 grams, the watch sits comfortably without feeling insubstantial, and the mineral crystal provides clear dial visibility while offering scratch resistance for everyday durability. Water resistance is rated to 50 metres, making the MTP-B146G suitable for daily wear, resisting splashes and rain, though not intended for swimming or diving activities.
Whether you're seeking a versatile dress watch or a daily companion with vintage charm, this Casio MTP-B146G delivers on both fronts. Visit us at our Mall of the South boutique to experience the watch in person, or take advantage of our nationwide delivery service across South Africa. Our watch servicing and repairs team is always on hand to assist with battery replacements, bracelet adjustments, and any after-sales support you may require.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch suitable for swimming?
A: The MTP-B146G has a water resistance rating of 50 metres (5 ATM), which makes it suitable for everyday splashes, rain, and hand washing, but it is not designed for swimming, showering, or water sports. For aquatic activities, we recommend a watch with at least 100 metres of water resistance.
Q: How often will I need to replace the battery?
A: The quartz movement uses an SR920SW battery with an approximate lifespan of three years under normal usage conditions. When replacement is needed, our servicing team at Cassim & Co. can assist with professional battery changes to maintain the watch's water resistance integrity.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Yes, the stainless steel bracelet can be professionally sized by removing or adding links. We offer complimentary sizing when you purchase the watch from us, either in-store at Mall of the South or as part of our delivery service. Simply let us know your wrist measurement and we'll ensure a perfect fit.
Q: What is the accuracy of the quartz movement?
A: The Japanese quartz movement in the MTP-B146G has a rated accuracy of ±20 seconds per month, which equates to approximately ±5 seconds per week. This level of precision is standard for quality quartz calibres and significantly exceeds the timekeeping performance of most mechanical movements.
Q: Is this an official Casio product with warranty?
A: Absolutely. Cassim & Co. is an authorised Casio retailer, and this watch comes with the full 1-year international Casio warranty covering manufacturing defects. Purchasing from an authorised dealer ensures you receive a genuine product with full warranty support.
Q: What does the day-date complication display?
A: The watch features a day-of-the-week display at the 12 o'clock position (showing "MONDAY," "TUESDAY," etc.) and a date window at 3 o'clock. Both complications are useful for daily reference and add visual interest to the dial layout.
Q: Is the gold colour real gold or plated?
A: The case and bracelet are stainless steel with a gold-tone finish, not solid gold or gold plating. This PVD or ion-plated finish provides the warm aesthetic of gold with the durability and affordability of stainless steel, making it an excellent choice for daily wear.
Warranty
- This watch is covered by a 1-year international Casio warranty from the date of purchase when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassim & Co.
- The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions.
- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches to the case, crystal, or bracelet, nor does it cover strap or bracelet wear.
- Battery replacement is not covered under warranty, as batteries are considered consumable items with a defined lifespan.
- Water damage resulting from misuse, improper sealing after battery replacement by unauthorised service centres, or exceeding the stated water resistance rating is excluded from warranty coverage.
- Damage caused by accidents, impacts, improper handling, unauthorised modifications, or repairs performed by non-authorised service centres will void the warranty.
- To claim warranty service, the original proof of purchase from an authorised Casio retailer must be presented.
- Warranty service should be arranged through Cassim & Co. or an authorised Casio service centre to ensure proper handling and genuine replacement parts.
Care Guide
- Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, perspiration, and daily residue that can accumulate over time.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including solvents, perfumes, and cleaning agents, which may damage the finish or movement.
- The 50-metre water resistance rating is suitable for splashes and rain, but avoid submerging the watch in water, showering with it, or exposing it to steam, as these can compromise the seals.
- Do not operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet, as this may allow moisture to enter the case.
- When the battery requires replacement (approximately every three years), have it changed by a professional watchmaker to ensure correct installation and re-sealing of the case back.
- If the bracelet becomes loose or requires adjustment, visit our boutique for professional sizing to ensure the links are properly secured.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use, preferably in its original box or a watch case to prevent scratching.
- Have the watch inspected periodically if you notice any condensation under the crystal, as this indicates a compromised seal that should be addressed immediately.
