Unlike many modern sports watches that opt for an oversized aesthetic, Casio has chosen to go for a relatively slim profile, measuring 45.3 x 38.3 x 11.6 mm. This makes the watches highly wearable for a variety of wrist sizes while maintaining the legibility required of a chronograph.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Two Models, Two Unique Aesthetics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The primary differences between the two models, the EFS-S660D-1A and the EFS-S660PB-1A, lie in their materials, weight, and color accents. The EFS-S660D-1A features a traditional silver stainless steel case and an integrated metal bracelet, weighing in at 129 grams. On the other hand, the EFS-S660PB-1A swaps the metal band for a black resin strap, utilizing a dark gray ion-plated case with a black ion-plated bezel, and tips the scales at a significantly lighter 71 grams.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hardware Specifications &#8211; A Solid Set for the Price Bracket<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Casio has spared no expense when it comes to the hardware specifications of the EFS-S660 series. Both models come equipped with a sapphire crystal featuring an anti-reflective coating, which mitigates glare and provides strong scratch resistance. The watches also feature 100-meter water resistance and a tachymeter around the periphery of the bezel for calculating average speeds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Powering the Watches &#8211; Casio&#8217;s Solar-Powered Charging System<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Internally, the EFS-S660 series relies on Casio&#8217;s solar-powered charging system. The dial has a textured finish that still allows enough ambient light to pass through to the solar panel beneath. On a full charge, the watch can operate for approximately five months before the hands stop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Features Galore &#8211; A Watch That Delivers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The watch features a 1\/20-second stopwatch capable of measuring elapsed time, split times, and first-to-second place times up to 59 minutes and 59.95 seconds. The dial layout includes three standard analog hands alongside three subdials for timekeeping seconds, stopwatch 1\/20 seconds, and stopwatch minutes, plus a standard date display window.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pricing and Availability &#8211; A Steal for the Price<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both the EFS-S660D-1A and EFS-S660PB-1A are scheduled for release later this month, and are currently listed on Casio&#8217;s Japanese online store, with both models priced at \u00a533,000 ($210). This is an absolute steal for a watch that delivers so much value for money.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay Ahead of the Curve &#8211; Follow Us for More Updates<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For more daily updates, please visit our News Section.
