Scuderia AlphaTauri has recently announced that Casio Computer Co., Ltd. released EDIFICE Scuderia AlphaTauri Limited Edition of high-performance chronographs. The collection will be based on the brand concept of “Speed and Intelligence.” The EQB-1200AT, EFS-S580AT, and EFR-571AT employ a dial made from 6K carbon* and are the third set of collaboration models designed with our race team.
*A material woven with filaments that each consist of 6,000 carbon fibres.
The new collection lineup features three models: EQB-1200AT, EFS-S580AT, and EFR-571AT. The watches feature a dial made from 6K carbon fibre inherited from the second collaboration with the team. The watches packs Formula One technology as the watch designs that use the same high-strength carbon fibre used in Scuderia AlphaTauri’s racing car wings and floors. The team’s navy blue colour sets the overall tone, and fluorescent yellow accents are applied to key components inspired by the clothing worn by our mechanics after the races to ensure the high visibility required for safe work in the paddock and pits.
All three models are 10 bar waters resistant. The EQB-1200AT and EFS-S580AT feature a glass made from high-strength sapphire crystal, delivering peace of mind even in the most gruelling race conditions.
The EQB-1200AT is also equipped with Mobile Link functions that automatically adjust to the correct time when paired with a smartphone using the dedicated app, providing the precise timekeeping required by our team personnel who schedule their days down to the minute. The app features some 300 cities to choose from for setting World Time with ease — ideal for a team that travels the world.
Franz Tost commented: “These have been 5 great years. Casio Edifice has always been a good match for the team, as we share the same passionate pursuit for speed and technological innovation. It’s fantastic, especially in our business, to have the possibility to think and design together such amazing watches which, in such a time-dependent environment, can and actually will make our lives easier.”
