Dimentional Face Design. The digital-analog face features large dimensional index marks, inset dials, and a bridge-shaped part in a bold layout. The speedometer-inspired inset dial at the 6 o’clock position accelerates the sports car design concept even further.

Enjoy our Edifice ECB-30 Watch Review

Yes, most likely, the Japanese decided not to bother with design and just implemented “modern dreams” in a relatively conservative “body”.
