Casio Explorer?

Anyone else a fan of the Casio Edifice EF-121D-1AVEG? I was introduced to it by @MWC2020, who dubbed it the “Caxplorer”. It’s obviously a much cheaper edition of the venerable Rolex Explorer, but it’s got 100M water resistance and a 10yr battery! It’s also similar to my Seiko 5 SNXS but with a quartz movement and slightly lesser quality build. Trade offs in my mind. It’s a Casio, and it’s an Edifice with a solid quartz movement seen in higher end Edifice models. I’ve recently acquired an upgraded oyster bracelet for my Seiko 5 and would love to find a similar for this Edifice. Otherwise, it’s in my regular rotation and will probably stay there for some time.

I skipped the edifice range and went straight to Oceanus but they are both great little watches you have there.

Thanks for the intro to this guy! And yes, my posted photos don’t due the dial justice. Here’s an attempt to capture the texture…

I have not gotten into the Oceanus line yet, but it’s in my list! Great watch you’ve got.
