To recap
It’s clear, those looking for a smartwatch aren’t going to buy a Casio Edifice 501, however, for those who want a classic time-telling watch with the added Bluetooth functionality offered by a paired smartphone, the Casio is a great option. Rather than be an attention-hogging notification machine, the Edifice 501 does what all watches should do, and thanks to the smartphone app, does it more accurately, and that’s just telling the time.
