BMC’s flagship model “Teammachine SLR01” released in Japan limited to 9 units, special price 1.375 million yen|BMC
Futaba has announced the Teammachine SLR01 JP Special Edition, a Japan limited edition model equipped with Shimano’s top-of-the-line Dura-Ace Di2 R9270 component on the Teammachine SLR01, the flagship all-rounder road of Swiss high-performance motorcycle brand BMC. It is a limited production of only 9 units in total, and the price is 1, 375, 000 yen (tax included). It has already started sales.
A special one with the highest level of components and high-performance parts
The Teammachine SLR01, which can be said to be synonymous with BMC, is the pinnacle of all-round road bikes that balances excellent rigidity, lightness, and comfort at a high level. This special edition limited to Japan is fully equipped with the latest Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 R9270 electric component in its flagship frame.
The cockpit features BMC’s original lightweight integrated full-carbon steering wheel system, ICS Carbon, which provides a clean appearance, aerodynamics and excellent rigidity. The wheels are made of 30mm rim-height Vision carbon wheels, and the tires are 700x25c of the high-performance clincher tire “AGILEST” from the Japanese brand Panaracer, and the suspension is composed of a wide range of races and long rides. The bar tape is Lizard Skins DSP 2, which has a reputation for grip. 5 V2 (black system) is adopted, and it is a specification that pays attention to details.
Dressed in stealth colors, limited production of only 9 units
The frame color adopts the fearless “stealth (all black)”. A specially designed bottle cage is also included.
Due to the limited number of components available, only 9 units were produced in total. Crank lengths are 170mm (5 units) for frame sizes 47 and 51, 172 for 54, 56 and 58. 5mm (4 units) are combined.
While BMC’s finished car with the same specifications in its home country costs about 2 million yen (reference price excluding tax), and the Ultegra Di2 specification that is available in Japan also exceeds 1.3 million yen, the special edition equipped with the Dura-Ace Di2 is strategically priced at 1, 375, 000 yen (including tax). Since it is assembled at a domestic factory, the delivery time is as short as about one week.
It’s a unique opportunity to get the best performance at a special specification and price.

ZEPPELIN, a German watch brand that develops classical designs with an airship motif, will release a limited-edition collaboration model “100th Anniversary Series Chronograph Alarm Vintage Porsche Leather” with the custom-made leather brand “NEW ANTIQUE”. From Friday, May 16, 2025. Reservations have already begun.
What is noteworthy about this collaboration model is that it uses the leather belt used in vintage Porsche.
There are two types of leather. The limited edition of 100 grain leather models are made of grain leather, which is characterized by a three-dimensional and high-density wrinkle pattern. Pair it with a classic silver ivory dial.
On the other hand, the limited edition of 50 pieces of perforated leather uses perforated leather with excellent breathability and grip. It really matches the red-colored dial that impresses motorsports.
As for the function, it is equipped with a chronograph alarm function. In addition to three highly visible in-dial displays, it is a multifunctional design with a date display. The case size is 42 mm, and the windshield is made of scratch-resistant mineral glass.
In addition, the back of the belt is engraved with VINTAGE PORSCHE LEATHER, and both models come with a new antique original bag using the same leather on the handle.
Original bag made of vintage Porsche leather
Each bag also shows a different expression depending on the texture of the leather. The selling price of both will be 75,000 yen.

Ball Watch, a Swiss watch brand that develops sturdy and highly functional mechanical watches, has announced two new models from the popular “Engineer Hydrocarbon” series that will be limited to Japan.
It is based on the NEDU, a professional-use diver’s chronograph developed to celebrate “The US Navy Experimental Diving Unit” and incorporates the world’s first patented technology to incorporate an automatic pressure reducing valve into the crown, as well as other latest specs.
■Ref.DC3226A-S8CJ-BE。 TI (42mm diameter). 600m water resistance. Automatic (Cal.RR1402-C). Limited to Japan 50 pieces. JPY 693,000
BALL Watch
Engineer Hydrocarbon Nedu G5 Japan Limited
Diver’s chronograph with 600 m. water resistance. It is equipped with professional use functions throughout, including the patented “Crown Built-in Automatic Pressure Reducing Valve” technology that incorporates an automatic pressure reducing valve in the crown, the unidirectional rotating bezel with ceramic inserts, and the unique “Safety Lock Crown System” that protects the entire crown from impacts. The high functionality of 4800A/m antimagnetic function and 7500Gs shock resistance performance is also a big attraction.
【Image】”Engineer Hydrocarbon” series, comparing two Japan limited models
The biggest feature of this Japan limited specification is the dial. It uses blue-colored mother-of-pearl (MOP) made from processed mother-of-pearl shells, and has a beautiful complex color, pattern, and pale luster derived from the material.
The hands and indexes are equipped with the Ball Watch’s unique luminous micro-gaslight system, and the bezel scales are coated with Super-LumiNova to ensure visibility in the dark.
The extremely sealed case is made of grade 5 titanium, which achieves a weight reduction that is different from the strength of appearance. Grade 5 titanium is twice as hard as pure titanium (grade 2), has excellent corrosion resistance, and has a color closer to the appearance of stainless steel than the color of pure titanium. The bracelet with a robust folding clasp that can withstand a weight of 140 kg is also a highlight.
The movement is equipped with the Swiss C.O.S.C. certified chronometer “Cal. RR1402-C” that proves high accuracy. There are two color variations in the lineup: the chic “black ceramic bezel” and the “blue ceramic bezel” featuring a calm navy.
The planned selling price for both is 693,000 yen. The number of bottles limited to 50 is limited to 50 pieces worldwide. Pre-orders will start at authorized retailers nationwide and Japan’s official online shop from June 2025. At the official online shop, you can choose the model with the desired serial number.

The dial with the tail incorporated into the design is decorated with the frog mark of the 301st Squadron, the flag of Japan, and the official logo of the Japan Air Self-Defense Force, and the second hand reproduces the aircraft mark reflected on the cockpit HUD.
As for the function, the movement is equipped with the Japan solar module “J-SOLAR”. In addition, the crown is set at 4 o’clock so that it does not interfere with operation, it can operate for up to 6 months on a full charge, and it supports missions in harsh environments where practicality is harsh.
