Joint collaboration between Casio and Honda. Edifice EQW-A2000HR-1AER Honda Racing Limited Edition

Casio Edifice EQW-A2000HR-1AER Honda Racing Limited Edition

Friends, hello everyone. You are on the channel about Feeltime watches, Stanislav is with you as always, and today we have a somewhat unique model on review. This is a limited edition created by the collaboration of Japanese brands Casio and Honda.  

I want to say right away that I will not show how to set up the mechanism and use the functions. Despite the fact that the watch looks like a classic, sporty chronograph, it has a rather complex and technologically advanced module, and in order to deal with the watch, you will most likely need instructions.  

I could write it all down, but you'll just get bored.  

This model can be bought in my Feeltime.com.ua online store with an official 2-year warranty.

But we'll talk about the idea and message of the watch.  

References to history

In 1961, Japanese motorcycle racer Takahashi Kunimitsu on a Japanese motorcycle Honda RC162 with an engine capacity of 250 cubic centimeters took first place at the Grand Prix in Germany for the first time.  

This event is dedicated to our limited edition.  

Although I can not say that this is a full-fledged limited edition. In my understanding, a limited watch is when there is a serial number of the model. We don't have one. Rather, I would call this watch Special Edition. But Casio presents the model in this way.  

Equipment

Let's start with the kit. This is an oblong box. Very bright, with the appropriate symbolism. He screams in every possible way that we have a special edition inside.  

Inside you'll find the watch itself, documentation, a bonus Honda-branded nylon strap, and a strap changing tool, which isn't really necessary, as the quick-change system makes it easy to change straps by simply prying off the studs with your fingernail.  

The watch itself

The model has a sharp and chopped body shape. The body itself is quite complex. There are unusual ridges on the sides that finish with a combination of mirror polish and satin on the top of the lugs.  

The bezel has a tachometer scale, which emphasizes the sporty style of the watch, plus note the texture of the bezel. Like the plate at the bottom of the dial, this texture is an element of a Honda motorcycle.  

Clock face

Well, since we touched on the dial, let's also note the red element at the top of the dial, which is made in the color scheme of the Honda RC162 gas tank.  

But you can see the name of the motorcycle, the year of victory and the engine size on the strap patch.  

Also, the motorcycle logo can be seen in the form of an engraving on the back of this watch. Many functions are also written here.  

Firstly, this watch has a rather complicated module on board. This movement is equipped with Tough MVT technology, which perfectly calibrates the hands, even if they go astray. For example, on impact. This mechanism checks the calibration of the hands 5 times a day.  

There is also a solar battery, which, when fully charged, works up to 6 months and in total will serve you up to 25 years.  

Radio synchronization. That is, always the exact time, since the clock is synchronized with one of the 6 towers in the world and sets the exact time.

And of course, a set of classic functions such as: World Time, Stopwatch, Timer, Alarm Clock.

So this watch only looks like a regular chronograph. Casio knows how to hide a real monster under the usual appearance.  

The watch sizes are as follows.

Diameter - 41 mm, from ear to ear - 48 mm, Thickness - 12 mm, Weight - 79 grams.  

I didn't like the extra strap. Might be more comfortable on a wider brush. My 18 cm girth.

The default leather strap is genuine leather. I want to say that for a watch in the style of auto racing, this is quite a standard red color on the inside. They love him. Plus, like this, rectangular elements.  

The clasp is as simple as possible. It's nice that there is a metal trench coat with Honda engraving.  

For the remaining characteristics, I note sapphire crystal and water resistance of 100 meters, which is again a classic for watches in this style.  

What I want to say in conclusion .  

Of course, this is a watch designed for fans of motorcycle racing, auto racing and all similar topics.  

I doubt that a person who is not in the subject will buy them. Very specific design, and the price is quite high for Casio Edifice. A non-fan simply won't understand.  

If we talk about quality, then it is good, if we talk about functionality, then it is very advanced. Everything you need. Here Casio is in his repertoire.  

Therefore, yes, specific, unique watches for a certain circle of people.

And in my Feeltime online store you buy only the original with an official 2-year warranty.
