Casio MQ 24 7BLL

I have a Casio MQ 24 7BLL and I find it really simple, minimal, easy, cheap and for every occasion. The problem is that this 20€ watch after1 year of use ( let's say one day every three ) left me with it's wristband broken, so today I went where I bought it and the new offical Casio wrist band will cost me... 10€. It will be ok since I still like it a lot, but this is how things go nowadays.
The previous Casio I get as a present something like three years ago is waiting to be recycled somewhere since it abandoned me after a couple of years.
