This Casio wristwatch features a real red Honda Type R “H” badge
Casio has released the ECB-2200HTR, a Honda Type R collaboration model in the Edifice line of timepieces based on the brand concept of “Speed and Intelligence.” The Type R is a premium-grade Honda sports model developed to be the ultimate road car, incorporating the full range of traditional Honda racing technologies.
3 Decades Of Innovation
Over 30 years of innovation have led to the creation of numerous masterpieces. A pair of special features are reserved exclusively for Type R cars, “Championship White,” a special, traditional ivory-white paint on the watch strap and the iconic “Red H” badge on the dial of the watch itself.
As seen on the dial, the three-dimensional form of the badge, with its elegant curves, is faithfully reproduced. On the strap, the white genuine leather band is printed with the model codes of Type R cars from the NSX NA1 that debuted in 1992 to the Integra and today’s Civic FL5, all milestones in a history of challenge and innovation.
Type R Style
The metal band loop and case back are engraved with “Type R” logos, the deployment buckle with a “Honda” logo, and the stopwatch timer button with an “R” mark. A deployment buckle is also used to fasten the band, to provide an even more comfortable fit, while the underside of the band features Alcantara.
The Casio ECB-2200HTR is equipped with Mobile Link features for pairing with a smartphone via Bluetooth, providing automatic time correction and making it easy to set world time and other functions. For practicality and convenience, a double LED light illuminates both the LCD and dial for an easy read even in dark locations.
A Unique Collaboration
This special collaboration model pays homage to all the Type R models that have ever been on the road, and all those still on the road today. It is also sure to be a delight to wear for owners and fans of these great cars.
