Official EFV-560 Series Description. The classic Edifice inexpensive chronograph has a small case, clear hands and hour markers and only an analog dial. There is nothing superfluous here – just a male arrow classic and a simple stopwatch. The second hand has a sharp and long tip [almost like that of the “Swiss”], to emphasize the special style of the EFV-560, and add. the windows on the dial traditionally look like a car dashboard – this is the concept of the entire Edifice brand as a whole. Models with a leather strap are especially good, because the skin is not only pleasant to the touch, but also looks very presentable. The steel case is one-piece, without separate parts, and a 100-meter water resistance allows you to comfortably accept any water procedures.
