It’s time to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Suzuka Circuit — with the EDIFICE SOSPENSIONE Honda Racing Honda Red Edition.
EDIFICE meets Honda in this special-edition timepiece featuring the same genuine paint used for the red Honda badge. This iconic badge, a symbol of Honda racing spirit, appears exclusively on Honda race cars like the RA271 and on the speedy Type R editions of their commercial cars. The authentic red paint is used for the X at the center of the EDIFICE dial.
The band is crafted with Alcantara, an Italian-made material used in Type R car interiors, as well. This sophisticated material is highly durable, as well as soft and breathable — ensuring a truly comfortable fit.
The dial features the HRC logo of Honda Racing Corporation, which takes the lead in Honda’s racing activities. The case, band, band loop, and case back are adorned with Honda and Honda Racing logos. The case back also features an engraved logo especially for the 60th anniversary of the Suzuka Circuit established by Honda.
Based on the original SOSPENSIONE EQB-2000 high-performance chronograph, this solar-powered tribute to Honda syncs with your smartphone via Bluetooth® for effortless watch operation and precision timekeeping. Simply tap on the app to easily manage world times, alarm settings and other handy functions, and you’ll be off to the races.
The Honda Racing collaboration model, featuring the same genuine paint used in the red Honda emblem
Introducing the Honda Racing Red Edition to mark the 60th anniversary of the Suzuka Circuit’s establishment by Honda. Featuring the same genuine paint used in the red Honda emblem — a symbol of the company’s racing spirit — the watch is based on the EDIFICE SOSPENSIONE EQB-2000, which introduced our unique suspension arm design. The band is crafted with Alcantara®, a sophisticated material used in the interiors of Honda Type R cars, as well. The original design, created under Honda’s supervision, represents the ultimate expression of the company’s passion for motorsports.
With roots in the design of the RA271, a Honda F1TM race car that debuted in 1964, Honda’s iconic red emblem appears exclusively on Type R cars, amongst commercially available cars. The same authentic paint used in this red Honda emblem is employed for the X at the centre of the watch dial. The design also incorporates the HRC logo of Honda Racing Corporation, which leads the way in Honda’s racing activities. Honda’s racing spirit is expressed by the passion for colour and design.
The band feature Alcantara™, a 100% Made in Italy material also used in Honda Type R car interiors.
In addition to being elegant and soft to the touch, Alcantara™ is soft, durable, breathable and easy to care. A Honda Racing logo is embossed on the band and a Honda logo is engraved on the band loop.
*Alcantara is a trademark of Alcantara S.p.A.
The design configures the lugs in a four-arm arrangement inspired by formula car suspension. The case is finished with black IP and features red line inlay. These processes are also applied to the tachymeter bezel, giving the watch a sporty look.
