Casio Edifice EFR-512L-8A

Japanese god… hours

Casio's popular Japanese electronics brand Casio's Edifice chronograph impresses with its perfectly balanced combination of functionality and impeccable appearance. EFR-512L-8AVEF look massive and solid. The black dial combined with the stainless steel case gives the watch an understated elegance.

Three years on one battery

Battery life is rated at 3 years, which is not much, but a lot. There are watches in which the battery needs to be changed after a year, and there are watches that last from one to 8 years. The question of cost.

The accuracy of the EFR-512L-8AVEF is acceptable; according to reviews, they sin by about twenty seconds a month. Not a little, of course, but not critical, once every six months you can bring the arrows for a couple of minutes.

The dial is illuminated by light accumulators, that is, the hands and marks in the dark shine, so it’s quite possible to see the time even in the absence of lighting.

Of the useful "buns" there are: tachymeter scale, as well as three small time displays: with a second, minute and hour hand.

Dressed and forgot

The glass of the EFR-512L-8AVEF is mineral, scratch-resistant. The watch itself is not shockproof, but water resistant . Water resistance of 10 atmospheres according to the Japanese classification means that the watch can be used for swimming without diving. For comparison, in European watches with similar water resistance, it is better not to do this, you can only wash your hands or take a shower without exposing the watch to direct jets of water. So, in this regard, the Japanese can be trusted more. Other amenities include the current day of the month on the dial.

The strap, although made of genuine leather, firstly, has a not entirely reliable clip, which, according to customer reviews, is too easy, which is why it often and spontaneously unfastens, and breaks quickly enough, and the leather bracelet itself eventually acquires an unpleasant smell from moisture and pollution. Therefore, it is better to replace it with rubber or steel, which is not afraid of such problems.

With all the advantages of the model, many buyers note a slightly overpriced price for it, but this, as they say, is a relative question.
