Some collaborations celebrate performance. Others celebrate culture. The new Seiko 5 Sports x Honda Motocompo Limited Edition does both.

Inspired by Honda's legendary Motocompo folding scooter, this latest limited edition captures the spirit of innovation, practicality and unmistakable 1980s design. Created for collectors, watch enthusiasts and motorcycle fans alike, it brings together two Japanese icons with a shared heritage of reliability and everyday adventure.

Inspired by the Honda Motocompo

Originally launched in 1981, the Honda Motocompo became one of Japan's most distinctive urban mobility solutions. Designed to fold away neatly into the boot of the Honda City, the Motocompo has a compact, lightweight body with a dry weight of 42 kg, powered by a 49 cc, 2.5 horsepower two-stroke engine, and was equipped with foldable handlebars and footrests, as well as leak-proof mechanisms for fuel, engine oil, and the battery. Creating a new six-wheeled lifestyle that combined the comfort of a four-wheeled vehicle with the manoeuvrability of a two-wheele.

Seiko has translated these unique design cues into a timepiece that feels both nostalgic and contemporary. The clean white dial is inspired by the Motocompo's bodywork, while vibrant red and black accents echo the scooter's distinctive graphics. Every detail has been carefully considered to reflect the character of the original machine.

Built on the Trusted Seiko 5 Sports Platform

Beneath its retro-inspired design is the dependable Seiko 5 Sports collection, powered by Seiko's in-house automatic Calibre 4R36. Offering approximately 41 hours of power reserve, a day-date display and manual winding capability, it's a movement trusted by enthusiasts around the world.

The watch also features:

• Stainless steel case with matching bracelet
• Automatic Calibre 4R36 movement
• Day-date display
• Exhibition case back
• 100 metres of water resistance
• Limited edition presentation box inspired by the Honda Motocompo

The special packaging and individually numbered case back further reinforce its collectability, making it an exciting addition for both Seiko collectors and Honda enthusiasts.
