Introducing the EDIFICE Honda TYPE R Edition: A Tribute to Racing Heritage
Honda has long been celebrated for its trailblazing road cars, inspiring generations with its passion for high-performance motorsports. Paying homage to this legacy, EDIFICE presents the Honda TYPE R Edition, a timepiece born from a unique collaboration between two powerhouses: EDIFICE and the legendary Honda TYPE R. This watch is not just a tool for keeping time; it’s a celebration of speed, precision, and the iconic “Red H” badge that distinguishes Honda’s TYPE R series as the pinnacle of sports cars.
A Partnership Driven by Passion for Racing
The Honda TYPE R embodies the ultimate synthesis of racing and road performance. It is the only road car to bear Honda’s iconic “Red H” badge—a symbol of excellence in motorsports engineering. When the EDIFICE development team met with the head developer of the Honda TYPE R, they were inspired by Honda’s philosophy of introducing the “true essence” and “sense” of racing to road cars. The team channeled this ethos into the design of the EDIFICE Honda TYPE R Edition, crafting a timepiece that embodies the very spirit of performance-driven innovation.
The “True Essence” of Racing: Unmatched Readability and Comfort
Racing demands clarity, precision, and reliability, and these qualities are reflected in the EDIFICE Honda TYPE R Edition. Every detail has been carefully considered:
- Exceptional Readability: The index marks and hands are coated with glow-in-the-dark paint to ensure you can read the time at a glance, even in low-light conditions.
- Premium Comfort: The genuine leather band, featuring a deployment buckle and Alcantara material lining, provides a secure yet luxuriously comfortable fit. Alcantara is the same material used in the interiors of TYPE R cars, adding a tactile connection to Honda’s racing pedigree.
The “Sense” of Racing: Wearing a Legend on Your Wrist
This watch feels like more than a timepiece—it’s a tribute to the iconic Honda TYPE R. The design integrates details inspired by the car’s distinctive features:
- Signature Design Elements: The watch showcases the “Red H” badge, the hallmark of the TYPE R. The buttons feature the bold “R” mark, while the band loop and case back proudly display the TYPE R logo.
- Championship White: The case and band are adorned in authentic Championship White, a signature color of Honda TYPE R cars.
- Interior-Inspired Craftsmanship: The band is enhanced with red stitching and Alcantara material, directly mirroring the interior details of the TYPE R vehicles.
- Celebration of Legacy: The white leather band is printed with the iconic model codes of the TYPE R lineage, honoring the evolution of these legendary cars.
