    Very nice review, just bought the ECB-10 , very similar except for its a bit bigger and no solar .
    I hope casio digs deeper in Bluetooth functionality to compete with todays smart watch’s , keeping this style , no screen and with health stuff and recharging methods , I’m sure lots of people will go for it and I’m one of them

      It's a great choice. I have found solar movements VERY reliable. As long as you keep them exposed to a light source, they are good to go. I have solar watches that I still haven't had to change a batter on 15 years later.

    I found out about this watch by accident while looking for any upcoming releases for G-Shocks. I noticed the Honda Racing Championship White Edition (ECBS100HR-1A) from Edifice for preorder, so that's what I opted for. This will be my first watch from the Edifice line and I'm anxious for it to arrive 😎

    Hello Sir, thank you for the great review of the watch. I'm going to buy some classy/sporty watch for official and everyday usages, and I wonder between this model and EQB-1200D-1A. Do you have review of eqb too, or if u have opinion for this watch i will be glad to hear it, nevermind if it would be just based on your greater experience in watches for sure!

    • @DougFNJ

    It's a really nice looking watch. It reminds me of a Citizen Eco-Drive Promaster A-T. Having the phone app is a HUGE bonus. I've had a couple of Citizen Promaster and Skyhawk watches and getting through the digital screens for any reason is a real PITA. Casio seems to have solvved that problem.

      a) the digital display is absolutely useless(tiny + unreadable). Which makes the watch a basic anaolg watch with childishly mascaraded dial.
      b) the "transformes-supeheroes" styling of the dial does not look goog with classy casing, plus makes it harder to read even the analog time)
