This one is one of the first EDIFICE models that came with the date display accompanying chronograph capabilities. The overall watch face is of a very sporty design with high contrasts in white and blue.

Anyone’s first impression on the watch will be a good, overall size with a peppy colour combo. However, despite the size, it’s pretty light-weight and therefore, pleases immediately. The bezel is very thin, which adds more prominence to the tachymeter and imparts to the watch a larger feel.

Though set close, they are pretty wide apart – an example of thoughtful designing. Even the bracelet; it’s surprising how Casio manages to keep things this lightweight without compromising on the quality. The lightness definitely opens it up for the crowd who are averse to weighty Casio Edifice Marine and have shunned many a good ones just for their fear of their wrists being pinned with the heft.
