Q: What does the 1-year international Casio warranty cover?
A: The warranty covers manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship for one year from the date of purchase when bought from an authorised retailer like Cassim & Co. It does not cover normal wear and tear, battery replacements, accidental damage, or water damage due to misuse.
Q: What makes the Edifice collection different from other Casio lines?
A: Edifice represents Casio's premium sports watch collection, inspired by motorsport and racing aesthetics. These watches feature more sophisticated designs, higher-quality materials, and refined finishing compared to entry-level Casio models, while maintaining the brand's reputation for accuracy and reliability at accessible price points.

Care Guide
- Daily Wear: Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including perfumes and solvents that may damage the case finish or seals.
- Water Resistance Maintenance: While rated to 100 metres, do not operate the chronograph pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise water resistance.
- Cleaning: Clean the stainless steel case and bracelet regularly with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For deeper cleaning of the bracelet, use warm soapy water and a soft brush, then dry thoroughly.
- Crystal Care: The mineral crystal is scratch-resistant but not scratch-proof. Avoid impact with hard surfaces and remove the watch during activities that may cause crystal damage.
- Battery Replacement: When the battery requires replacement after approximately two years, have it changed by a professional watchmaker to ensure proper sealing and water resistance testing. Our servicing team at Cassim & Co. can assist with this.
- Bracelet Maintenance: Periodically check the bracelet links and clasp for security. If you notice any looseness or wear, bring the watch to our boutique for inspection and tightening.
- Storage: When not wearing the watch, store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The original box provides ideal protection.
- Regular Servicing: Although quartz watches require less maintenance than mechanical timepieces, we recommend having your Edifice inspected every 2-3 years to ensure water resistance seals remain intact and all functions operate correctly.
