Note: Some of the channel viewers suggested to check if the bracelet from the EFR-S108D can be replaced by the one from the EFB-108D. While that's a great idea, unfortunately, the EFB end link is wider than the EFR's meaning that the bracelets on these 2 watches are not interchangeable. Thank you for your suggestions!

Many thanks for this confirmation. This is exactly what I wanted to try with my EFR108D because I don't like the bracelet. Sad it's not possible. I really wish Casio releases a new version of the EFR108 with a better bracelet...

Got the EFR-S108 in Tiffany Blue and I’m absolutely rocking it as my daily summer watch. Getting the EFB-108D next for the weekends and to enjoy this fall. I’m a big fan of Casio and Citizen, and these Edifice watches are too good, and reflect where I’m at in life, financially/professionally. Such a good line, hope to get a Casio Oceanus S100 as soon as I get my CDL. They’re both the best, get em both, and a Casio Duro for that field/dive watch everyday piece too. 👌🏼

EFR-S108D hands and indices are lumed, but its performance is very average. EFB108D only the hands are lumed, and performance is about the same. I didn’t look that much into strap replacements, but it’s quite challenging to find replacements that fit.

For a 6 inch wrist, it might wear large. It depends on your taste as well, if you don’t care how it wears/looks, I don’t see any issue. The ideal would be to try it somewhere, or buy and return if it doesn’t suit you. I hope this helps.

@iosdeals4 ай бұрын
the EFB really is superior in my experience in all cases, my only wish would be to have less text on the dial. Choose one Casio, you want a logo, Edifice or Casio branding, but not all 3 please. The "sapphire" text is fortunately so small it isn't obtrusive in real life. And the second hand, I'd love it to be more subtle. On silver dial it's better with the blue, but the red on black dial is kinda bugging me. (I have both versions). And the crown - it really is worse than on any below 50 EUR/USD watch, it's a crown lottery. Will you change the date or the time? You don't know. I had the PRX, I had Citizen Tsuyosa, for half a year I had Tudor Royal, which the black version is kinda reminding me of, but for this price point, an integrated bracelet, sapphire crystal, solid links, ... just throw better AR coating on it, better crown, and I will gladly pay double for it, it'll still be a bargain. For anyone watching these videos trying to choose which version, black or silver, take the silver. It looks better. Integrated bracelet watches don't do that well with sharp contrasts. I had multiple PRX models, and the quartz white, with brushed dial, was definitely the best if you look for subtle watch, that can serve as a dress watch as well. This casio in silver dial is also pretty good as a dress watch, while the black version pokes out of the shirt too much, and it would need a lot more polished surface on the case and bracelet to be dressy-ier.
