In this Casio EFR-S108D review, I analyse the new CasiOak watch, which makes for one of the best royal oak alternatives. In fact, this Casio Edifice royal oak lookalike is probably my favourite ap cheap alternative. The full codename for this watch is the EFR-S108D-1AVUEF.

I'd go for the EFR-S107D/L (besides taking from the Royal Oak and the Nautilus, it takes inspiration from the Omega Constellation too (the position of the screws) ). I'm more comfortable with round bezels.

They don't (officially) sell the 108 in the US. I actually wound up buying the ECB10, which was the first of the stainless Casioaks, because there were simply no GA2100s to be had when I first wanted one. It is definitely bigger, so you might not like it too much. (I have gotten a GA2100 since, though.)

You spend an ample amount of time with the watches and you actually have all your thoughts organized and present them in an efficient, informative, and strangely satisfying way. You don't just bust open a box and ramble on for 20 minutes without actually saying anything, and then complain about youtube comments and demonetization *cough* Time Teller *cough*.

I got this one months ago, I enjoy it a lot. The design and finishing is great for the price but don't expect too much. I noticed some minor flaws. But the fit of the watch is insane, it's so slim and I unironically got compliments for how it looks, it easily looks like 2000$+ on the wrist. It also has the perfect size, so if you can rock a quartz, go for it, it's really unique.

The SKX was a value proposition becuse it was a well made ISO certifed diver for 200 bucks or less a few years ago. There were 100% problems with it and it wasnt the unicorn every acted it was (just look at the movement) but at the time you go get them for 200 dollars and under it was a good deal if you liked the looks and or wanted an ISO certified diver. Also while modding it can be expensive and there are better watch platforms to do that on (vostok comes to mind) but doing simple shit was not pricey like a bezel insert and crystal swap. The skx was over hyped but there was 100% a reason people reccomended it at the time. On top of that most channels who did review it werent focused on "value" watches anyway

I'll buy the black dial version you highlighted soon. I have a few inexpensive watches (even a Glycine combat chrono) and enjoy the hobby. To include amateur smithing and modding. But what want is the the watch I wear everyday. The anthracite dial turtle sp-something-23. Out of production, almost gone and up to 4-500 USD. And I'm old broke live aboard sailor. Credit to Casio for knowing the market. But they could put this on a solid bracelet and apply some killer lume at around 200 USD and have a winner. It's got the style, brand cache (buyers trust), sapphire, percieved dependability, etc. The Edifice line should be the cut above. Go the extra distance for us enthusiasts. Probably think they already are. But every Edifice model, nope. Set an Edifice standard, sapphire, lumezilla, solid bracelet, jeweled quartz movements on metal plates.... ...some models at 200-250 USD.... and stick it to the competition. The Chinese homages like San Martin or Chronos (and others) have solid offerings. But I haven't bought one yet. Won't be long now. If they don't price themselves out of running, which is happening now. Maybe Casio knows this. I wrote an effen novel, sorry.

Great review Ben once again. As I'm not err... "currently" in the market for an AP Royal Oak so seeing your different options is of great interest to me. The Casioak looks great but is slightly larger than my shed but given the recent weather in the UK it is way more resilient to water than that of said shed. Now, that Edifice is definitely a worthwhile look, as with Casio watches that I have the second hand aligns well with the minute markers and the gold tone second hand contrasts well with the dial. I'm not usually a fan of a date at 3 but as this resides inside the hour marker I 'm OK with it. I might just have a look at this one post lock down..... or I just buy one.

Those metal bezel kits for the GA-2100 can look great, but the heavy metal bracelet still attaches to the resin lugs creating a weak point. Edifice has the better octagonal steel watches for those in need. This EFR-S108D, the solar powerd EFS-S570d with chronograph, and the top of the line EQB-1100, which has solar and bluetooth. Look for the "YD" models and not the "D" models to get one with a milled clasp and solid links. Different countries get different models, and there's an appropriate price difference.

Wonderful review as always Ben. This watch has been on my collection list for a very long time. Plus, this edifice and oceanus watches are so underrated. If you don't mind can you review the casio edifice EFS-S570DB which is very similar to this one with extra functions. I'm looking forward to purchase that watch but can't find a good review. Thank you.

Superb watch, I paid £100 for mines, normally I would go 80 tops for these specs, But even now it risen to almost 150 euros and can only be bought from Italy. I can live with the integrated Bracelet for this price , only gripe is the clasp noise when you tap it, but thats more of an OCD thing. Overall I am glad i have it as it probably will be discontinued and prices will creep to the 200 euro range.

Ben I have a suggestion for a video. Why not give yourself a budget of say £150 sterling and throll through all the second hand Web sites and buy the best watch you can get for the £150 including p+p. BUT the one rule you must abide by the watch must have been readily available at some time from a hight street shop so no online only sales it must have been or available from a bricks and mortar shop. And to make things harder the watch must be complete with its box and and any accessories it was sold with. No rule on age.

If there's one thing the influencer brands have taught us it's that quality is irrelevant. Design is nice to have but it just needs to be good enough. Marketing is where it's at. And G-Shock has marketing. Therefore G-Shock will remain dominant as it's its own brand and in fact one of the only brands a normie will know offhand

Yeah I saw that one! But the real CasiOak does away with the Quartz second hand. That makes the Edifice one an instant bummer. But we all see what they did there! Otherwise gorgeous piece.
@shiznuts
@shiznuts 3 года назад
Actually I do believe there is an Edifoak without ticking second hand. But it isn't very pretty or affordable. - ah, the solar chronograph: EFS-S570DC-1AUEF €249 (also in blue EFS-S570DB-2AUEF €219)

Funny i find this Video now after I just bought the Edifice EFS-S570 which has the same body but is solar powered and has a watchface that is more similar to the Royal Oak Offshore. I saw this watch at my local jewelry store, after I brought my older watch in for a repair. For me the Royal Oak is the dream watch, but pretty much unreachable in the forseable future. So this watch is a good compromise.

This S108D is better than the S107 with the green accents. It wears so much better. The lugs turn downward while the lugs on the S107 basically stick straight out. And that’s why I returned it and bought the S108D instead. I have a 6.5 inch wrist, for reference.

I really appreciate these watch reviews. It is like a DJ finding deep cuts and hidden gems. I would have never found this watch without your channel. Short of the bracelet being hollow and not solid, I'm not sure what specification or design element isn't strong (now I do really prefer quartz, so that may be an issue for some). Even with the need to import this model from Europe, it's still the cheapest watch I bought that wasn't my Timex Easy Reader. The value for the money is hard to beat.

That S108 is a good looking watch. And the saphire glas is stunning in this price segment. The S107 is a bit disappointing in regard to these screws on the brim of the watch although on Amazon the version with a leather strap is availabe for 65 € plus shipping. But this watch is not a substitute for the G Shock casiok because these watches are made for different areas of application. So if you like this style and have enough money it would be nice to own both of them.
