Simply download the Edifice Connected App to control the watch’s many functions. Functions vary by model and may include multiple alarms, a second time zone, or the transmission of stopwatch data to your smartphone. Another useful feature is the “Phone Finder,” which you can use to ping your phone should you misplace it. The app lets you import stopwatch data and also switch the analog display back and forth between home time and local time when you’re traveling. After pairing, the watch will correct the time displayed if necessary, based on the time signal from the phone. It comes on a sturdy rubber strap or a steel bracelet, and the whole shebang is yours for the very wallet-friendly price of a hundred and fifty bucks.
It’s been a long and ardent effort from Casio to offer more than just chronographs in their tough little packages, not considering their ultra-cheap digitals so popular in the South Asian countries. Move a bit up-range and Casio alarm chronograph watches start the list. You shall always find something else to be “figger-ed out” from the ultra-geek ranges. The Casio alarm chronograph watch is just one component in them. For an easy selection, split the Casio chronograph watches for men into g shock protection and non-Edifice chronographs. If you are looking out for a chronograph aviator watch, both Edifice and G-Shock have some cool gadgets to offer.
If you put the watch into a draw and kept away from all light sources, the power-saving mode affords a whopping 19months of power. The Edifice EQB-501BP-1ACF model manages to blend together a lot of excellent features and functionality, a sleek and modern design, with a highly reasonable price tag. What’s more, the EQB-501BP model is equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology which means users can take full advantage of the Edifice Connected App via their smartphones.
As a Casio loyalist looking for functionality, state-of-the-art robust casing, and longevity, a baby g shock timepiece will definitely meet your needs. The Casio EQB-1000AT is just 9.8mm thick, but I expected it to be even thinner before measuring. I think that the thicker bezel offsets some of the visual impact when viewing from the side. The mid-case is wonderfully slim, and with an overall weight of just 71g. Knowing the full technical capabilities of the watch, it’s impressive that Casio can squeeze so much into such a slim watch.
The price for a Casio Edifice watch ranges from USD$77 to USD$350. It is difficult to find a watch as good as Casio Edifice at this price point. We have consolidated a list of Casio Edifice watches which we highly recommend here. Edifice watches are Casio’s functional and full-featured line of watches today.
For example, the screw heads are partially covered by the bezel, which helps visibly minimize the case’s substantial 45mm width. There are button guards around the crown, but not around the buttons that flank it, which also helps make the g shock protection case appear smaller on your wrist. I’ve worn many connected G-Shock watches, and consider them to be excellent examples of how watch brands can embrace connected tech, without sacrificing the character and draw of a traditional timepiece.
There are beeps when you push buttons, but rarely is it clear what mode the watch is in, and it also seems to get stuck in certain modes that may stop the Bluetooth connection from activating. Unfortunately, when it’s difficult to connect the watch to your phone, you’re less likely to use the connected features. Worst of all is that the watch syncs the time with your phone, so you stumble across these problems before you’ve even put it on your wrist. It’s unfortunate the Bluetooth here isn’t as polished as the watch itself. If you aren’t a fan of the ECB900DB’s digital displays, you may prefer the EQB500.
Crafted for men who like adventure and sports, these watches are inspired by the Honda racing cars. Backed by advanced engineering, these quality chronograph timepieces deliver practicality with panache. From Limited Edition to Smartphone Link to Chronograph to Solar Power, each Casio Edifice series is a perfect fashion statement.
Overall, this is a pretty straightforward dress watch that brings the finesse of a dress watch with a more casual and contemporary twist. The Casio Edifice ECBS100D-1A is an interesting watch; it offers plenty of functionality for travel but also practical considerations like 100m of water resistance for everyday wear. As you’d expect with any Casio, you’re getting a whole lot of watch for the money.
