Post image for The Casio Edifice – Form Following Function or Function Following Form? It’s Both!

Have I said that I love watches? I think that I have before. In fact, a year ago, I reviewed a Casio Pathfinder that had lots of technology baked into it (that’s the other thing I really love). I actually have had a long-running affair with Casio, having owned various G-Shocks and Waveceptors. Now I’m going to talk about the latest addition to my Casio collection, the Edifice EQS500C-1A1. I’m not sure why some of the naming conventions for the Casio watches are so cryptic, but I believe it is because they have a style to match just about anyone’s taste.

Casio has quite a big line of Black and Silver Edifice watch styles which, in my opinion, are a blending of functionality and edginess. Each model boasts something different, whether it be that they are solar powered or atomic time setting (self-adjusting) or rugged or waterproof or full of spinning dials.
