Czapek is one of the oldest names in Swiss watchmaking, first established in the 19th century by François Czapek, a gifted watchmaker and former business partner of Antoine Norbert de Patek before the creation of Patek Philippe. Revived in 2012 by Sébastien Follonier, Xavier de Roquemaurel and Harry Guhl, the modern brand combines its historical heritage with a contemporary vision of haute horlogerie. Known for its distinctive design language, refined movements and exceptional dial craftsmanship, Czapek has become one of the leading names in today’s independent watchmaking scene. Its collections, particularly the Antarctique, have earned widespread acclaim for blending technical sophistication, originality and artisanal finishing in a thoroughly modern interpretation of traditional Swiss watchmaking.
