The design uses graphic elements from the number 23 Nissan Z, which competes in Japan’s most prestigious car race.
TOKYO, March 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. today announced the launch of the latest addition to the EDIFICE line of watches based on the brand concept of “Speed ??and Intelligence”. The ECB-2000NIS, christened NISMO MY23 EDITION in reference to “Model Year 2023”, is clad in Team NISMO race car graphics.
NISMO is a work team of Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. that is involved in motorsport activities. The EDIFICE line of high-performance watches inspired by the worldview of motorsports has supported NISMO since 2021. The two brands are natural allies who share a passion for harnessing cutting-edge technology in pursuit of ultimate performance.
The new ECB-2000NIS is a high-performance chronograph that incorporates design elements from the bodywork of the number 23 Nissan Z of the NISMO team, which competes in Japan’s most prestigious auto race, the SUPER GT.
The new watch is based on the EDIFICE ECB-2000, which features a carbon fiber reinforced resin case and a unique design inspired by the suspension of racing cars. Inspired by the color scheme of the racing car seen from the side, the entire watch features a two-tone change from red at 12 o’clock to black at 6 o’clock. An interlocking graphic pattern featuring the “Z” logo featured on the car is incorporated into the dial design in the upper section. The Nissan/NISMO ace car number “23” graces the 23-minute position. A section of the bevel edge tapers to create a sharp curved line shape inspired by the car’s roofline, evoking the look of a Japanese sword. These elements of the car body are expressed in multiple aspects of the watch’s design.
