Now, Czapek \u0026amp; Cie is proud to present its new version: The Passage de Drake. Named after the English explorer Sir Francis Drake, the Drake Passage connects the Atlantic and Pacific oceans between Cape Horn (the southernmost point of South American) and the South Shetland Islands of the Antarctic. The stormy seas and icy conditions make it one of the most challenging places to navigate and sailors say to prepare yourself for an experience somewhere between bad and terrifying! The creation of these timepieces has not only been a technical adventure but a human one. Czapek \u0026amp; Cie considers its suppliers to be partners and refers to them as such. The brand is also truly appreciative of its 200+ shareholders, without whom the adventure would never have even started. And last but not least, it is grateful for all the watch connoisseurs who have chosen to purchase a Czapek \u0026amp; Cie timepiece, selecting something different from the mainstream. When it comes to collecting, Czapek collects rare people who have become part of the journey, every step of the way. There's more to haute horlogerie than virtuosic complications. Movement design, rare and fine finishing, selected materials or intricate case surfaces, and attention to detail, are all key factors that increase a timepiece's value. On the dial, the date window is positioned at 6 o'clock to maintain the Czapek aesthetics based on vertical symmetry. The hands design is reminiscent of a sword, sporty and easy-to-read, as well as the three-dimensional indexes. The 40.5mm stainless steel case is integrated with an original double ‘trompe l'oeil’ curve, another unconventional design choice making this timepiece unique and exclusive. The new Antarctique Passage de Drake collection takes the sport-chic case design of the Antarctique Terre Adélie line and pairs it with an atypical trapezoid dial motif whose three-dimensional stamped surface creates a play of shadows across the dial. “This unique dial design is called the ‘Stairway to Eternity’ and was actually our initial concept dial for the Antarctique, as we were looking for a signature dial design that would be very different from anything else, but it was such a lengthy process to perfect that we launched with another dial, based on a forgotten workmanship technique, the combed ‘lamé’ dials,” shares Czapek \u0026amp; Cie. CEO Xavier de Roquemaurel. “We finally discovered the perfect motif when our designer accidentally enlarged the trapezoids by 50% without realizing it, and it looked amazing. That’s the beauty of mistakes!” All Czapek designs are officially registered, demonstrating the company’s directional approach.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Czapek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46395103150324,"sku":"18870005","price":29000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/8570\/2900\/files\/18870005_1.jpg?v=1745262178"},{"product_id":"czapek-quai-des-bergues-qdb-emerald-green-18870014","title":"Quai des Bergues Emerald Green L","description":"\u003cp\u003eA contemporary high-end independent watchmaking Maison created in the spirit of François Czapek, a 19th-century Czech-born Polish watchma Geneva by a group of watch enthusiasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE CASE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first collection of timekeepers to herald the renaissance of Czapek \u0026amp; Cie is called ‘Quai des Bergues’. It is a tribute to the location where François Czapek founded the company in Geneva in 1845. Our cases were designed to be like a pocket watch perfectly fitting on a wrist. The generous and smooth round shape of the case, and the beauty of its curves, are an expression of the purity of the brand. The Quai des Bergues Emerald Green L is featuring our distinctive ‘Revolution’ case with their sandblasted stretchers on the flanks. THE DIAL ‘Flinqué’ is a technique combining the stamping of geometric patterns, which have been initially engraved on a dial us ing the guilloché technique, with enamel ling. The guilloché pattern used with the original ‘flinqué’ technique was so recognizable that it gave it its name. Nowadays any pattern can be used in a ‘flinqué’ dial. Czapek had its partner Metalem recreate its own ‘Ricochet ®’ design – a motif inspired by the ripples of a stone skipped on a lake – on a stamping tool. Once the décor is stamped on a silver plate, an intense ‘moiré’ enamel is applied by another Czapek partner, Donzé Cadran. It is then finally fired in a kiln to harden the enamel. The process is repeated several times until the right hue is achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE MOVEMENT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe SXH1 caliber is a proprietary movement designed by Czapek. It is the first in a family of movements developed specifically for Czapek watches, according to the strictest rules of the watchmaking art. It was conceived in cooperation with Le Locle based company Chronode. This manually wound movement has two barrel springs, ensuring 7 days of power reserve and runs at a rate of 21,600 vibrations per hour, (3 Hertz). It features an annular balance wheel with weights for variable inertia and a Breguet terminal curve balance spring. The balance cock has been finely skeletonized and streamlined to give the whole balance greater transparency. It is finely decorated and remains aesthetically and functionally true to the 1850 original. The architecture remains symmetrical, and the sandblasted finish is a modern interpretation of the ‘satiné frost’ technique used in the 19th Century.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Czapek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46395103314164,"sku":"18870014","price":25000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/8570\/2900\/files\/18870014_1.jpg?v=1745262218"},{"product_id":"gerald-charles-maestro-gc-sport-gc2-0-tx-tn-01-18620005","title":"Maestro GC Sport","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe GC Sport sunburst Royal Blue dial, with applied Arabic numerals at 3, 9 and 12, captures the spirit of the hard court tennis season.
