Introducing The New Czapek Promenade
Czapek chose Geneva to present the new Promenade which arrives with three watches.
The watches are presented in a round stainless steel case with dimensions of 38mm in diameter, 10.80mm in thickness and 42mm lug-to-lug distance, which comes with a mainly polished finish, smooth bezel, sapphire crystal on both sides, short curved lugs, recessed sides with sandblasted finish and crown at 3 o’clock with guards.
On the minimalist dial, there is only space for two skeletonized centre hands and a small second at 4:30.
Among the three new watches, there is a limited edition of 20 pieces called the “Goutte D’Eau” which comes with a blue enamel dial that depicts a drop falling on water. The other two watches join the permanent collection and are called “Guilloché Soleil” the Bleu Nuit in dark blue and Ivoire in beige that mimics a sun on the sub-dial that emanates rays of light around it, these two watches add a rehaut minute track on the dial as well as a second track in the small register at 4:30.
Inside, they all come equipped with the SXH5 automatic micro-rotor movement with 193 components that reach 28,800 Vph and offer up to 60 hours of power reserve, which can be observed through the sapphire crystal of the rear case, highlighting the finger bridges and the rotor made from recycled platinum.
The watches, which can be attached to a Nubuck calfskin leather strap matching the tone of the dial or a Mesh steel bracelet, are priced at CHF 17,350 and CHF 18,000 (excluding taxes), the latter for the limited edition.
