Casio General Men's Watches Edifice EF-547D-7A2VDF - WW

Why I purchased: I purchased this watch as a gift for a coworker and after seeing it in person I am very tempted to get one for myself. I am a bit of a watch snob and this is definitely a watch I would wear without hesitation.Bottom line: This watch is for you if you are looking for a great looking watch under $100.Purchase Goal: My primary criteria when searching for a watch were:* Priced around $100* Chronograph function (stop watch)* Classy design* Reputable brandThis watch meets all of the above criteria as well as some additional personal criteria I had when searching for the right watch. This particular model is also available in white/black and black/silver color variations.On with the details...At 44mm the polished stainless case is big but not too big. I have a 7" wrist and have a preference for larger (40mm+) watches. This watch is the perfect size for me. The watch has a nice weight to it (162g) but doesn't feel too heavy on the wrist. The case thickness is 11mm.The Omega Speedmaster style stainless steel bracelet oozes class and sophistication.The crown is a push in type (not screw in) and has the Edifice logo stamped on it (a nice touch).The 35mm white dial with ion plated blue accents and applied metal hours markers looks stunning. The ion plated blue accents on the sub dial rings and bezel actually look black/dark blue except for when hit directly with light. This effect really adds to the sophisticated appearance of the watch. The applied metal hour markers sparkle like jewels when light hits them. This watch will definitely get noticed.The hour markers have small dots of lume (glow in the dark material) applied. The hour and minutes hands also have lume. Brightness of the lume in the dark is mediocre however I do not see this as a big disadvantage on this type of watch. The chrono sub dial hands do not have lume applied.The glass is mineral so I would expect it to get some scratches over time (if you wear your watches like I do anyway).Typically, getting the best watch for the money is a no-brainer (get a Seiko) however I highly recommend taking a close look at the Casio Edifice watch line if you are looking for an attractive watch at a great price.

This watch has a great TAG Carrera-inspired look with the blue accents I was looking for. The quality is great so far. Solid pushers. It's my first non-screw down crown in years (first diver in the same) so I'm still adjusting, but it's normal for a 100m WR watch. The bracelet looks very nice, though it's lighter than I would have preferred, as is the entire watch. Unfortunately, the bracelet is a little short for my 8-1/4" wrist. I have contacted Casio to request more links lest I have to send it back. But in the meantime I am wearing it on a variety of NATO straps and it looks phenomenal.The only problem is the hands you need to tell time are chromed and very hard to read. I'm deciding if it is a deal breaker for me. Even if I keep it, this is not a quick-glance kind of watch. I do not understand why manufacturers continue to offer chrome hands on white faces. Maybe they don't use the watch to tell time? Or they have time to make it out a little better. Blue hands would have made this watch a five.A couple other notes that do not matter to me: the packaging is pretty low quality (more along the lines of what I expected from Casio) and the lume sucks (ditto). Only the hour and minute hands have any lume, and it's only good for a minute or two.If you have normal-sized wrists and do not need to tell time, this watch is beautiful!

This watch is beautiful, especially for the price. It's a very sharp looking time piece, and the dark blue bezel/accents (the blue looks much darker in person than it does in the pictures on the website) look especially nice. I've only had it a few days, but so far, I don't see any real cons to it. It should also be noted that it's listed as a 45mm case, but it feels/wears (pleasantly) smaller than that. I had some reservations about it possibly appearing too big on my wrist, but I think it actually wears quite perfectly. My other daily wear watch is a 42mm case and this doesn't really feel/look much bigger than that.Great looking watch. I would definitely purchase again. I'll update the review if anything changes.

Now if you're thinking a Casio watch like this would feel cheap. Think again. This watch is actually very good quality after a couple months of wear. I get a lot of compliments on this watch. Even more than my Omega Seamaster, which cost several times more. It really looks better than it does in the pictures.

I was looking for a casual stainless steel watch that was reasonably priced and this one was it. Well constructed, clean looking watch from a well known watch company.

The watch looks in better than the pictures! Could not beat the price. It is just a tad bigger than my older atomic watch.

Received the watch a few days back. I havent expected this watch to be so beautiful. Awesome!!! kick ass!!!!!!!!! Great Casio Product!!!!!

Very good

Has a touch of Omega Speedmaster/Tag Carrera about it, but they are out of my price range, however I think it pays more than a subtle wink to the styles.Delivery from Spain was quicker than deciding to go to the shops at the weekend, and full tracking was provided. A quality product from a quality vendor.

Es tan bonito o más que lo que se ve en la foto. Buen tamaño y un peso adecuado. Una gran relación calidad precio.
