Independent watchmaker Czapek whets our appetite ahead of Watches & Wonders 2024, pre-releasing the handsome Antarctique Mount Erebus, the first gold version of its successful luxury sports watch.

Back in 2020, Czapek launched its Antarctique, the brand’s first luxury sports watch that simultaneously featured the brand’s first in-house calibre.

If the roots of the brand are connected to François Czapek, a Czech-born Polish watchmaker who fled to Geneva in 1832, Czapek was resuscitated in 2015 thanks to equity crowdfunding.
