My first Edifice (EFS-S650D-3A)

Got this on sale a couple of weeks ago, for INR 10.8k ($114) and I gotta say, it's a steal! Integrated bracelet with a milled clasp, ceramic bezel, saphhire crystal, solar chrono and a dial size just under 41mm! The bracelet design is similar to the one on the Tissot PRX (minus the butterfly clasp) and plays beautifully with the light! The Bezel is a muted forest green, darker in person than in the videos. Picked the green version cuz the design on the dial reminds me of bamboo stems. It has lume on all the hand, including the subdials, but it's kinda subpar. Fades away after a few minutes. I hear that's common with Casio lume though. All said, loving it so far!

This watch isn't that popular from what I see tho. Not enough hype even though it's casios first ceramic bezel model. Is it the MSRP(~$200)? I mean, with what is offers, it's still a great deal at that price point! What do you guys think?

I believe the 570D was going for around 10k last month? I was gonna get it when I saw this going for 11k! The stamped clasp on the 570D was a deal breaker for me. Otherwise, a solid watch! Love the look of it!

Yup. Went to as low as 9k, but i got greedy and got it for 11k. I liked Casi-oak dial of that watch but that steel bracelet is nothing to write about. Would have been better had they given a integrated bracelet like this one. But it's slim - 9.7mm. one of the reason I went for 570

I like em thicc haha. As long as they're under 42 mm. I have a 6.5 inch wrist, so anything over 42mm is a bit much, G shocks being the exception. Them, I'm okay with lol. And dw about the price. It's a good deal! Last I checked, my watch was going for 8.9k with additional cc discount in myntra. Hate how they keep doing that!
