Casio Edifice EQB-1300: New images of upcoming slim watch leak

New images have surfaced of Casio's upcoming Edifice EQB-1300 watches, confirming details about two color variants that appear to be targeting the premium sports watch segment with their slim profiles and feature sets.

The first variant, model EQB-1300DC-3A, features a green dial paired with a dark metallic gray metal case. The second model, EQB-1300D-2A, sports a mid-blue face with a lighter silver-colored metal casing. Both watches share similar design elements including baton indexes that match their respective case colors, three analog hands, a basic date display, and two subdials.

The subdials appear to serve multiple functions - one displays time in 24-hour format while the other combines a weekday indicator with stopwatch functionality. This layout suggests Casio is aiming for a balance between traditional analog aesthetics and modern digital utility.

According to the latest reports, these Edifice models are expected to include Bluetooth connectivity for smartphone pairing and Tough Solar charging technology, allowing the watches to be powered by light exposure. The watches should also support multiple world time zones and include a daily alarm function.

One of the most notable specifications is the slim case design, reportedly measuring 9mm (approximately 0.35 inches) or less. This represents a significant departure from many of Casio's chunkier G-Shock and standard Edifice models, potentially appealing to users who want advanced features without the bulk typically associated with rugged digital watches.

While pricing and release dates remain unconfirmed, the feature set suggests these watches will likely fall in the mid-to-premium range of Casio's Edifice lineup. For context, existing models like the EQB-1100D-1A start from €299 through Casio's German store, indicating the EQB-1300 series could occupy a similar price bracket.

The emergence of these images follows earlier confirmation of the EQB-1300 model number in Indonesian certification databases earlier in 2026, suggesting Casio is preparing for a near-term launch. The combination of slim design, solar charging, Bluetooth connectivity, and the distinctive color options positions these watches as potentially appealing options for users seeking sophisticated yet functional timepieces.
