24 July 2011, Nürburgring, Germany. Formula One World Champion Sebastian Vettel was presented with the first Casio EDIFICE Red Bull Racing Limited Edition watch at his home race this weekend.
The new model is the latest product of Casio’s partnership with the reigning F1 World Champions. EDIFICE represents Casio’s advanced digital chronograph engineering, delivered through a traditional analogue face.

The Casio EDIFICE Red Bull Racing Limited Edition features:


Smart Access technology, allowing all its features to be accessed through the single crown switch
Radio-controlled time-keeping, synchronised by six atomic clock stations positioned across the world
Despite at heart it’s digital, the watch requires no battery changes courtesy of Tough Solar; its solar power function

The watch was launched at the Nurburgring by Red Bull Racing’s Team Principal Christian Horner, F1 legend David Coulthard and Vettel, who was given the first watch

Christian Horner said: “The EDIFICE is all you need in a watch – and it’s particularly useful on the pit wall at a race! Precision and timing dominate our grand prix weekends around the world, and the Casio EDIFICE Red Bull Racing watch shares the investment in technology which drives Red Bull Racing. The new watch is a welcome addition to our long-standing partnership.”
