Tokyo, September 25, 2020 — Casio Computer Co., Ltd. announced the release of the EQB-1100AT and ECB-20AT collaboration models with Scuderia AlphaTauri, the 2020 Italian Grand Prix-winning F1™ team, as new additions to its EDIFICE line of high-performance metal watches based on the concept of "Speed and Intelligence." These new models are part of the brand's ongoing collaboration with the team. Scuderia Toro Rosso, which Casio has supported as an official partner since 2016, has changed its name to Scuderia AlphaTauri this season. The EQB-1100AT/ECB-20AT, the first collaboration model since the team name change, features a gradient across the entire dial, combining the navy blue used in both the Scuderia AlphaTauri and EDIFICE logos with white, the other team color.

The ECB-20AT also features a navy blue case and band. Both models are finished in a design that is full of the world view of Scuderia AlphaTauri, with the team logo placed throughout the dial, case back, and band.
ECB-20AT
The EQB-1100AT features a slim 9.6mm case and an octagonal bezel made from carbon fiber, a material highly compatible with motorsports. Functionally, it is capable of displaying the time in two cities simultaneously. The ECB-20AT is based on the ECB-20, which is equipped with a schedule timer function, and features a leather band engraved with the team logo.
Both models feature scratch-resistant sapphire crystal to ensure safe use by team mechanics in the field. What's more, it works in conjunction with a dedicated app to automatically correct the time when a smartphone is nearby, making it a special collaboration model that supports team members around the world who keep to minute-by-minute schedules.
