Casio’s long-awaited Edifice x Honda special edition is finally available in the United States, giving racing fans and watch collectors a new way to celebrate one of Formula 1’s most meaningful milestones. The Casio Edifice ECB-2300HR-1A Sospensione is now on sale for $400, after a delay pushed its release back from last year.
Created to mark 60 years since Honda’s first Formula 1 victory in 1965, this limited-collaboration model takes direct inspiration from the legendary Honda RA272 race car. The motorsport influence shows up immediately in the color choices and detailing: a white leather strap paired with a red lining that echoes Honda’s classic racing look, along with red accents on the dial and Honda branding to finish the theme. The case size comes in at 50.2 × 45.8 × 11.8 mm, and it weighs 67 grams, keeping it relatively light on the wrist for a sporty, feature-packed timepiece.
Beyond the styling, the build mixes carbon, stainless steel, and resin, and it’s rated for 100 meters of water resistance—practical for daily wear, travel, and weekend use. A sapphire crystal adds extra scratch resistance, helping the watch stay looking sharp even with regular wear.
On the tech side, the Edifice ECB2300HR-1A runs on Casio’s Tough Solar charging system and includes Bluetooth connectivity for pairing with the Casio Watches app. Once connected, the watch can handle automatic time adjustment, provide world time coverage for around 300 cities, transfer stopwatch data, and even help locate your phone with a phone finder feature.
For everyday functionality, it includes world time across 38 time zones, a 1/100-second stopwatch, a 60-minute countdown timer, five daily alarms, an hourly time signal, and double LED illumination for readability in low light. It also comes with a full auto-calendar through 2099, a battery level indicator, and a power-saving mode. If you use it without linking to a phone, accuracy is rated at ±15 seconds per month.
With its Honda RA272-inspired design cues, modern solar-and-Bluetooth feature set, and commemorative Formula 1 backstory, the Casio Edifice x Honda ECB-2300HR-1A Sospensione lands as a standout pick for anyone who wants a motorsport-themed watch that still works as a dependable daily wearer.
