Official EQS-930 Series Description. Introducing a new collaboration between EDIFICE, the highperformance metal chronograph timepiece, and Honda Racing.
This year is the 60th anniversary of Honda’s 1961 win of the world championship in road racing, making the first Japanese motorcycle manufacturer to do so. In commemoration of that event, this new EDIFICE Honda Racing Limited Edition EQS-930HR is being released as a limited-edition model with a design based on the world-champion Honda RC162.
The specially processed aluminum used for the bezel and dial is reminiscent of the RC162’s aluminum fairing, while RC162 design features include red that resembles the color of the tank, yellow that resembles the fairing line, a classic Honda logo, and a genuine leather band that sports the motif of racing suits from days gone by. The Honda Racing logo is also on the dial, band ring, and back cover.
The solar charging system of this model provides highly reliable operation without the need to worry about the battery going dead.
This new model is just the thing for Honda road racing fans who wish to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Honda championship.

EDIFICE Design. Bold, fascinating forms and fine details, combined with simple styling that brings out the essence of metal, give birth to products with clearly designed identities.

Forged stainless-steel case. After forging and heat treatment of the stainless-steel material, precision machining is conducted to complete the boldly designed case form.

Polished finishing. Polish finishing by the hands of skilled craftsmen produces beautiful mirror surfaces on the forge-cast stainless-steel case.

Tough Solar. This original solar power system transforms even weak light from sources such as fluorescent lamps into ample energy to provide stable operation of various high-load functions.

The most distinctive specs of EQS-930 — Solar Powered & Analog Stylish Look
*Editorial
— Solar-powered
(CASIO-original light-shielding and distributed solar technology make it possible to obtain sufficient power generation using only the light that passes through the three small inset dials. Exposure to light charges a battery that provides energy to power normal operations for five months on a full charge)
— Сarbon fiber dial (symbolizes the motorsports concept of the EDIFICE lineup)
— High-visibility color of the second hand (the result of feedback from race engineers)
