FAQ
Q: Is the Casio Edifice EFV-610DC-1AVUDF suitable for swimming?
A: Yes, with 100-metre water resistance, this watch is suitable for swimming and recreational water activities. However, it is not rated for diving or high-impact water sports. Avoid operating the pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged.
Q: What battery does this watch use and how long does it last?
A: The EFV-610DC-1AVUDF uses a standard SR920SW battery with an approximate lifespan of 2 years under normal use. When replacement is needed, visit Cassims & Co. for professional battery service to maintain water resistance integrity.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Absolutely. The stainless steel bracelet features removable links for precise sizing. Our team at Mall of the South will adjust the bracelet complimentary with your purchase to ensure a perfect fit.
Q: What is the chronograph measuring capacity?
A: The chronograph function can measure elapsed time with 1/20-second precision. The three sub-dials track seconds, minutes, and hours, making it ideal for timing events, workouts, or professional tasks.
Q: Will the black ion plating wear off over time?
A: Ion plating is a durable surface treatment, but like all coatings, it can show wear with extended use, particularly in high-contact areas. Proper care and avoiding abrasive surfaces will help maintain the finish. The coating is more resilient than standard PVD treatments.
Q: Does this watch have luminous hands for night-time visibility?
A: Yes, the hands and hour markers feature luminous material that charges in light and glows in darkness, ensuring legibility in low-light conditions.
Q: Is this watch covered by the official Casio warranty when purchased from Cassims & Co.?
A: Yes, as an authorised Casio retailer, all our Edifice watches come with the full 1-year international Casio manufacturer warranty, valid from the date of purchase and covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship.

- The warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, including scratches, bracelet stretch, or finish degradation.
- Battery replacement is not covered under warranty, as batteries are considered consumable items.

Care Guide
- Rinse the watch with fresh water after exposure to saltwater or chlorinated water to prevent corrosion and maintain the ion-plated finish.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including solvents, perfumes, and cleaning agents.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers or crown while the watch is wet or submerged, as this may compromise water resistance.
- Have the battery replaced by a professional watchmaker to ensure proper resealing and water resistance maintenance—battery replacement services are available at Cassims & Co.
- Clean the case and bracelet periodically using a soft, slightly damp cloth. For deeper cleaning of the bracelet, use a soft brush with mild soapy water, then dry thoroughly.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Avoid impacts and dropping the watch, as shock can damage the quartz movement and crystal.
- If the watch will not be worn for an extended period, ensure it is stored with the chronograph function stopped to conserve battery life.
- Have the water resistance tested annually if you regularly expose the watch to water, particularly after battery replacement or any servicing.
