Czapek 2026

Since its introduction in 2024, the Promenade collection has represented one of the more intimate sides of Czapek & Cie. Rather than focusing on overt technical spectacle, the collection approaches watchmaking as a space for reflection, using the dial as a canvas for stories, materials and artistic expression. With the new Czapek Promenade L’Écume des Jours, that philosophy takes a distinctly literary direction, drawing inspiration from Boris Vian’s celebrated 1947 novel of the same name.

Geneva has always occupied a special place in the history of Czapek & Cie. Nearly two centuries after François Czapek established his first watchmaking business on Quai des Bergues, the Maison has returned to the very same waterfront with the opening of its new flagship boutique at Quai des Bergues 27.

Czapek & Cie has unveiled the Promenade Transparencies Aqua Blue, a new limited edition that takes the concept of mechanical transparency in an entirely different direction.

Limited to just 38 pieces, the new model combines a 38 mm stainless-steel case with a smoked sapphire dial that gradually reveals the architecture of the movement beneath it. At its centre, the sapphire remains highly transparent, while a blue fumé effect becomes progressively denser towards the edges.

The new Czapek Antarctique Frozen Meteor introduces a colder and more refined interpretation of the brand’s meteorite-dial concept. Available in both 40.5mm and 38.5mm sizes, the two limited editions continue Czapek’s exploration of Gibeon meteorite while shifting the visual mood toward a lighter, denim-like blue that feels more restrained, more contemporary, and more architectural.
