Casio Edifice EFR-552D-2AVUEF Watch

The Watch

Casio has been the go-to watchmaking brand since 1946 - starting with calculators that transformed the scientific world, and evolving into a powerhouse of innovative timepieces that men and women worldwide rely on every day. Clean, contemporary designs meet indispensable daily functions in every collection. Whether you're after elegance or athletic edge, the EFR-552D-2AVUEF delivers. Its round case is meticulously crafted in stainless steel, offering excellent corrosion resistance. With a polished finish, it measures 47 mm in diameter, 12.30 mm thick, and 53 mm lug-to-lug, weighing 157 g. A flat hardened mineral crystal that is scratch-resistant protects the watch from unsightly damage, framed by a blue bezel featuring a minute track and Arabic numerals. On the right, the gray screw-down crown and pushers handle all adjustments and the chronograph function. The screw-down case back guarantees water resistance to 10 ATM.

The Dial

The dial on this watch balances beauty and functionality perfectly. In a bold blue, it is enhanced by a minute track. Its indices and hands, treated with Neobrite, clearly indicate the hours and minutes even in low-light conditions. Three additional sub-dials sit at 3, 6, and 10 o'clock: a 24-hour counter, a 60-second counter, and a 10-minute counter. The central seconds hand sweeps smoothly around the dial. The date window between 4 and 5 o'clock displays the day's date. The brand's name is proudly displayed at 12 o'clock.

The Movement

A Japanese quartz movement powers the sub-dials, hands, and date window of this model - specifically the Casio 5490 caliber, equipped with a battery offering an autonomy of 3 years.

The Strap

The bracelet on this watch is crafted in stainless steel with polished and brushed finishes. Composed of three elegant rows of links, it fastens at the wrist with a gray deployment clasp featuring a safety lock. It adds a refined, polished look to the overall design.

Water Resistance

This model offers water resistance to 10 atmospheres, or 100 meters - making it a genuinely water-ready watch. From puddles to the pool, this timepiece handles immersion without complaint. Shower, bath, and sporty swim sessions are all fair game. That said, our Ocarat watch experts note that this model, while water-resistant, is not suited for diving (recreational or professional) and should be kept away from high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers clear while the watch is submerged.
