The EQB-600D-1A2’s dual layered bezel of stainless steel and aluminum along with a 3D dial with discernible edges is mounted on a metal case. Beauty communicating an overflow of strength and intelligence is compressed in its simple confident styling. In addition to the 3D globe, there are molded 3D time indicators combining straight and curved lines which have been produced in molds made using Yamagata CASIO’s micro-fabrication technologies. A slanted surface representing a curve has been modeled to emphasize the dial’s appearance of depth.
