If you speak softly (until the nineteenth hole) and swing a big stick, the Honma x Huawei Watch GT 6 Pro partnership could be of interest to you. The hardware used for the tie-up between the Japanese golfing gear company and Huawei is almost identical to Huawei’s standard-issue gear, but there’s something that’ll make it stand out on your wrist.

That something is a golden titanium bezel with a cute little mole logo, Honma’s trademark, embossed in the face. If you’re toting one of these, along with, say, one for the Japanese outfit’s R991,500 14-karat gold/platinum Beres 09 club sets, the other duffers on the links are going to notice.

Yes, Honma? What, fore?

Or you could choose not to spend almost a million rands on a fancy set of sticks and just get the Huawei wearable instead. Pricing in Malaysia, where the special edition smartwatch has surfaced, suggests that you won’t even pay much extra, if at all, over the current R6,000 pricing for the stock Watch GT 6 Pro. Huawei’s golf-specific features for this generation of wearable make the partnership make sense, with a so-called ‘AI caddy’ on board to help you improve your game in addition to the other Scottish stick game functions like course info, distance tracking, and swing analysis.

The Honma-partnered wearable launches in Malaysia first before (hopefully) moving elsewhere. Buyers aren’t just getting a reskinned Huawei wearable, even if the outer materials have changed. Also included is a presentation box containing a gold golf ball (it’s definitely not real gold) and a set of course accessories. It’ll make this special edition an excellent gift choice for those weekend walkers who need an excuse to get out of the house, which is probably the point.
