Casio is introducing a new model in the EDIFICE EQB-501 Series Smartphone Link watches. The first major advance is improved accuracy thanks to an Accurate Time System that automatically accesses, via a smart phone, a time server on the internet four times a day to ensure that current Home Time and World Time settings are always correct. Next is a new sporty chronograph like design that uses the same coloring as a tachymeter for the speed indicator at 4 o’clock. These new improvements come with all the popular functions of the EQB-501 Series as well.
With the launch of its first watch in November 1974, Casio entered the wristwatch market at a time when the watch industry had just discovered digital technology. As a company with cutting-edge electronic technology developed for pocket calculators, Casio entered this field confident that it could develop timepieces that would lead the market.
Today, Casio is focusing its efforts on solar-powered radio-controlled watches: the built-in solar battery eliminates the nuisance of replacing batteries, atomic timekeeping means the users never have to reset the time. Recently, Casio launched a series of Bluetooth watches that sync to the users cell phone to automatically update the time. Casio is always moving time forward.
