Casio launches new Edifice EFB-109D-5AV and EFB-109D-3AV watches with slim design, gradient dials, sapphire crystal, 100m water resistance.<\/b>
\nCasio has quietly expanded its Edifice lineup with two new analog watches, called the Edifice EFB-109D-5AV and EFB-109D-3AV. Even though they\u2019re part of the company\u2019s motosport-inspired line, the new EFB-109D watches lean more toward everyday wear than outright motorsport theatrics.
As a result, these watches stand out less for complications and more for proportion. The EFB-109D series uses a compact stainless-steel case measuring 43.5 \u00d7 38.5 \u00d7 9.2 mm, with a noticeably slimmer profile than many modern sports watches.
Both models feature a gradated dial design, a simple three-hand analog layout, applied hour markers, and a clean overall look that nods to 1970s sports watches. The bezel is mirror-finished, while the case itself uses a hairline finish, giving the watch a mix of polish and restraint.
Under the hood, you don\u2019t get anything flashy, and that\u2019s very much the point. The EFB-109D runs on a quartz movement (Module 5340) powered by an SR920SW battery.
It is rated for around three years of use with an accuracy of \u00b120 seconds per month. Casio has also included a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal and a screw-lock case back, features that are often skipped in more affordable models.
The solid stainless-steel bracelet uses a one-touch three-fold clasp and supports wrist sizes from 150 to 205 mm. Water resistance is rated at 100 meters, which covers everyday use and surface swimming without issue.
While these new Edifice models skip the chronograph and tachymeter elements found in other Edifice watches, they focus instead on simplicity, slimness, and materials.
The company has not announced pricing and availability details yet.<\/p>\n
