      You're welcome. There are some particularly good prices in this list.

      • bleeder on 12/05/2018 - 15:26

        Which ones do you recommend?

  • starbearer on 12/05/2018 - 11:31

    If you're looking for reliability in a watch, look no further. These things are built like tanks.

    I've had one since 2008 and it's still going strong. It's needed a battery change just thrice in 10 years. It's clasp broke a few months ago, but that was coz of my own stupidity. I'm getting it repaired and the quote for it is just $20 for an original clasp replacement including labour.

    • ruprectaus on 12/05/2018 - 12:25

      It's needed a battery change just thrice in 10 years

      That's like my piece of shit TAG, i don't bother and it sits in the bottom of the draw.

      My Casio Protrek solar on the other hand is going on 10 years and not needed any battery replaced.

    • garetz on 12/05/2018 - 12:50

      Thats about how long batteries last, 3 years on average, i have an old early 2000s citizen ecodrive titanium that has never needed a battery change or service, close to 20 years later still going strong.

  • Colombian on 12/05/2018 - 11:41

    Nice, it seems number 70 ended?

    Do they have solar models or the ones that doesn't need battery replacement?

    Edit: 69 looks ended too.

    Some fantastic sub $100 deals. If I hadn’t bought three watches in the past 30 days I’d get one…

    Awesome stuff, do you happen to know of any discounted Edifice ERA models? I've been shopping around for a ERA-200 for ages!

    • PJC on 12/05/2018 - 12:06
      +2

      I didn't come across an adequate discount for this list. Would that be the ERA-200DB-1AV or have you a specific link?

      • Kyriasa on 12/05/2018 - 14:10

        Spot on there! Thats the one. I've always liked the feature set of the ERA series compared to the rest of the Edifice line. But theyve always been quite expensive.

    • PJC on 12/05/2018 - 12:09

      I think No. 50 is an impressive all-rounder but take your time considering.

  • seniordoc on 12/05/2018 - 12:16

    Could you tell me which one has sapphire window and if possible titanium, and date and day functions?
    I have an Edifice that I like the functions and display, but it is stainless steel, too heavy for me, looking for something similar but lighter.

    Many thanks.

      but it is stainless steel, too heavy for me

      I've never had to take off a stainless steel watch because it was too heavy. Maybe you should try lifting bro.

      Also you pay extra for titanium & budget models tend to scratch easier.

    • stumo on 12/05/2018 - 14:48

      Even in Ti these Casios are relatively heavy. I have an oceanus in Ti and it weighs a ton compared to my similar spec Citizens.

      • Fullhalter on 12/05/2018 - 16:23

        Which Oceanus?

        Must resist!! but are they better than seiko sea urchin though? they are cheaper for sure. I collect only casio g-shock so I have no idea about edifice

  • ruprectaus on 12/05/2018 - 12:27

      There are some Citizen Eco-Drive's in the description under Other current watch deals.
      No sapphire though.

      My pick would be the 45mm Citizen Eco-Drive Chrono CA4210-59E for $159.00

    I don't get how these are bargains when most of the stuff you post is what they can be obtained for everyday on ebay amazon etc. Again buyers beware these are virtually what most of these can be had for any day of the week so do your own research and don't go by the rrp

    • PJC on 12/05/2018 - 14:14

        Don't get upset but you're advertising the over inflated rrp and 60% saving when they're more along the line of 5%. You're probably in it for the likes but unfortunately many people buy these thinking they're legitimately getting once in a year 60% off deal when in reality there's dozen of sellers selling these within 10 bucks of one another

          Not sure why you yourself are getting so upset when OP has asked for an example on where they're cheaper and yet you literally cannot name a single site.

          Even IF the buyer is saving "a couple of bucks," it is still a saving. OP has never endorsed the RRP at all and if anything, his past posts have warned against purchasing at the RRP.

          @PrivateSmuggler:
          Right so I just picked the last watch on the list. I'm not going to go through every single item on that list. He has it listed at $211.01

          https://global.rakuten.com/en/store/nanaple/item/efr-516pb-1…
          $181.91 + $24.25 post = $206.16

          You're the one that said a couple of bucks is a couple of bucks. Now that's just the last one I picked and I didnt do a thorough search. I rest my case.

          @nikym81: Yes, I know, but they didn't have stock when I compiled this list and they don't have stock now! Why would I knowingly list a bargain without stock?

        • PJC on 12/05/2018 - 17:32

          @nikym81: Here's another vendor I excluded for that model because regrettably there was and is no stock:-

          https://www.jomashop.com/casio-watch-efr516pb-1a4.html
          US$99 + US$18 Shipping = US$117 = AU$155.11

          Whatever RRP Casio USA state on their website, they will not deliver a watch to your home. Jomashop would if they had stock. My Amazon listing would because they have stock.

          Australian watch vendors charge what they wish. This wonderful Australian website reduced their price from $570. Currently they require $379 and call that "A Celebration Of Time".

          @nikym81: You found an example without stock. That's why I omitted it when I researched during the week. Why would I list a cheaper price without stock? Skywatches too had some cheaper prices without stock. As always, there were a few cheaper prices on eBay but if I doubt their status I exclude them. One particular vendor had up to 8 cheaper prices but with a feedback rating of 91.6% he doesn't exist for me.

          OMG FYI it was in stock when I searched. By the way this has nothing to do with saving a few dollars. You're posting huge savings over 50% when they are in fact only a few %. You're misleading people here. People end up spending money they didnt want to because they believe you gave them a huge bargain when in reality there's a dozen sellers all within a few dollars of one another. Post REAL savings.

          @nikym81: most of us who look at the watch deals are aware that nobody sells at RRP, BUT we know that 30% happens often, 50% sometimes and 60% rarely , and better than 60% we know stock will move.

          Some people also tracks watches on camel camel camel which is an indicator of how low they have been historically …. they are seasoned enough to not just go with % on a day but % over time for historic lows..

          the starbuy deals that just passed, I picked up a citizen 8180 for $120 AU with AU warranty … that is lower than any ebay seller, and lower than Amazon historical, and will be delivered in 2 business days.

          Most people also check other suppliers to make sure that the deal is the best, maybe Ebay has a special % off, and that they have stock, but it's one hell of a starting point.

          e.g

          https://camelcamelcamel.com/Watch-Casio-Edifice-Ef-126d-2ave…

          you can always check yourself to see what sort of deal you are getting.

          Screenshot it next time?

          And finding 1 cheaper (which you can’t prove you have) is inconsequential because of how many are listed.

          And, rrp on watches is a joke. We know. And most ppl on ozbargain know it.

          Like I said a collective post like this thread provides the evidence and hopefully the realisation that rrp on watches is a joke.

      "I don't get how these are bargains "

      All of the "stuff" people post can be obtained "every day on ebay amazon etc". That's why they can be posted here, and people buy them.

      The secret, Grasshopper, is finding such "stuff", linking to it, and posting it here for people to see it. Some even take the time to check that they are the cheapest, sort through the absolute best of such bargains, and may even take the time to give a description of each and place them in some sort of price order.

      There are diamonds littering the ground all over this planet - they are the hardest terrestrial mineral and don't erode. If you are in the right place at the right time, you can pick one up for free. I mention this as a metaphor, and will leave the assessment of how it answers your plaint as an exercise for a rainy day. It, too, is free.

      That doesn't make a $25 1 carat diamond ring any less of a bargain.

      I realise that you yourself may have bad memories of being exposed to such strategies, [ ObHint: You can get punctuation marks and capital letters a lot cheaper if you load a Linux rather than purchasing the more expensive Microsoft or Apple varieties], but others among us appreciate the effort.

    Excellent work PJV!

    FYI, a bit of an off topic as PJV didn't list the below models.

    I own two Casio Edifice Bluetooth EQB501s and they are excellent watches. I also picked up a used EQB500 (black watch with black bands) for $200 AUD and it looks magnificent.

    If anyone has questions relating to them, I am more than happy to answer.

      They arr nice watches
      I'm waiting for thr. The EQB-900TR-2AER to get diwn towards the $300 mark.

      https://au.firstclasswatches.com/casio-edifice-bluetooth-tor…

      Do you use the bluetooth function much?

      • WaveZero on 12/05/2018 - 18:00
        +1

        Sorry, I didn't get a notification… Anyhow, I just realised that he notification system changed…

        To answer your question, no I don't use the bluetooth function much but they are excellent for keeping your watch sync'd with a somewhat reliable time source. The only notification you can set on the EQB500 and EQB501 is a limited range of email alerts. All it does is point your date hands to a dot when you have a new email. There are other uses for the bluetooth function such as changing timezones, setting alarms, looking at stop watch times, etc. I personally went for the style

        If you're looking for a more "smart" watch, I did suggest the Citizen bluetooth Eco drives ones. I do own a BZ1000-54E (AUS model is BZ1001-86E) and it does notification a lot better (emails, whatsapp, phone calls, etc with a tone + vibration) than the Casio bluetooth ones.

        Here's my two favorite bluetooth timepieces so far.

    WARNING #1

    The RRP’s the OP has listed appear to be the highest price he has found on the web, which may be higher than the RRP. The onus is on the OP to demonstrate these are RRP’s if he chooses to list them. I think the word ‘conjured’ is reasonable in this context.

    This is despite Casio often listing their RRP’s on their various websites. For example for the first watch listed the OP lists an RRP of USD 140.00, when Casio itself lists the RRP as USD 49.95.

    Accordingly the prices at best merely represent the range available on the net, in which case the “% off RRP” figures are not only meaningless but obviously misleading.

    Many watches are high priced discretionary luxury items. Am I the only one who cares if members and non-members alike are misled into making a purchase they wouldn’t normally make?

    • garage sale on 12/05/2018 - 18:56
      +1

      I look at camel camel camel to see if the reduced price is an everyday "street" price or a historic low ….

  • [Deactivated] on 12/05/2018 - 15:33
    +13

    WARNING #2

    Following my first point, even if the maximum discovered price is the RRP, using them in this way is highly controversial as voted by OzBargain members themselves.

    The mods have yet to act on this, though I’m reasonably confident that at some stage they will.

    Companies are notorious for nominating inflated RRP’s, especially for watches, so that any “% off RRP” figures are effetively meaningless and misleading.

    Note the OP had to be discouraged by the mods from simply listing these figures as “% off” (without even mentioning RRP) following complaints by members after a long repeated history of doing so.

    At least one mod shares some of my concerns.

  • [Deactivated] on 12/05/2018 - 15:36
    +9

    WARNING #3

    Following warnings #1 and #2, there is persuasive evidence there exists a cohort of watch enthusiasts coordinating their voting in relation to both posts and comments. Not one member that I have suggested as members has chosen to deny this, despite repeated opportunities – they generally merely attack and seek to introduce red herrings.

    I believe this belies a contempt for members and non-members alike as they seek to manipulate what is visible, especially to non-members. The more this happens, the more the discourse reduces to an insular echo chamber by the ‘usual suspects’ who take my comments very personally. That cannot be good long-term for OzBargain.

    My focus is on the misleading nature of the post, and that is entirely reasonable.

  • [Deactivated] on 12/05/2018 - 15:37
    +10

    WARNING #4

    Following warning #1, #2 and #3, you cannot therefore establish from the OP’s posts alone whether any of the watches listed are bargains, and this is ‘OzBargain’. There may be a lot of effort put into the post, but you just cannot tell.

    To do that readers will need to do their own research, especially of price timeline information on Camel, at least for Amazon listings.

    Note the approach adopted by the OP is in stark contrast to say respected members like @WatchNerd, who chooses not to list assumed or real RRP’s but instead attempts to compare the price to historical levels, usually using Camel. You are therefore able to establish very quickly whether a bargain is for the taking or not.

    For the record I am not a retailer, and have never posted a genuine deal on OzBargain. I rely instead on the strength of my arguments. Several members have sought to speak for all members, based on their length of membership or posting history, however they only speak for themselves.

    While I often respect loyalty, I think the displays on OzBargain recently have been misguided as the posts by @PJC are very obviously misleading. I am not shy in calling this out, especially as @PJC is rarely shy about critiquing the posts of others.

    • NixMo1 on 12/05/2018 - 15:53

      I tried to say the same thing but I got negged like crazy. As I demonstrated in my post earlier if you take time to search you can find them cheaper. Anywho its misleading, people thinking they're getting a 60% deal when it's only a few %

          I did find the first one I searched for cheaper elsewhere by $6 bucks or so. That's not the point I'm trying to make. People come here, see 60%, impulse buy believing they got a genuine 60% off deal. What if they wanted to spend that money elsewhere but didnt purely believing they genuinely got 60% off and didnt want to miss it. Now the problem is the next seller has it listed for a few dollars more, as a matter of fact the next 20 sellers have it for only a few dollars more making the saving FAR less than 60%. Post the bargain but use real world figures. If the closest competitor is 30% then use that but if there's 20 sellers all withing 5% well then sorry it's not 60%. I get it you guys post bargains and all stick together like an internet gang. I respect the bargains and time gone in to posts but I hate misleading % savings for a few likes. Call a spade a spade

      Thank you for your insightful analysis, I was also mislead by the % savings noted in the post description. I checked out the RRP's from Casio's website and they are noticeably lower than the prices that PJC has used as a reference. It does make sense that any potential savings should be compared to the manufacturers RRP rather than the normal price a retailer might charge as this can vary significantly.

        • Maz78 on 13/05/2018 - 08:44

          But at the same time, the list is overwhelming. Clicking on 60+ links in the one bargain is just OTT.. (Props to PJC, great effort, but sometimes more is less). I'm into my watches but there's no way I can distinguish each model on their name/title alone.

      • garage sale on 12/05/2018 - 19:16

        rrp gets trickey with batches especially when a model changes to a new colour face perhaps ….I know an old colour of Seiko turtle was RRP $599, the following year, same watch different colour was RRP $699 …. there is only so much time you can spend researching, and people can check on camel camel camel before hitting the buy button to see how cheap a watch has been in the past and if it's a street price or a clearance price they are being offered.

  • groovypants on 12/05/2018 - 15:57

    Looking to find a gift for mate who likes watches (has a large "Japanese" collection) but is not that much of a serious collector, I think most items are in the low-mid range price point.

    Those Bluetooth ones that WaveZero mentioned look awesome but could be over my budget.

    I randomly checked a few from the OP list but unable to find out where they are manufactured?

    I'm a watch noob, can any OZB'ers recommend a decent watch around the $150 mark and is "made in Japan" similar in the styles of those Casio Edifice - or would that be too much wishful thinking?

  • garage sale on 12/05/2018 - 19:10
