QTY :

The Czapek Antarctique Rattrapante Ice Blue is a technical marvel that seamlessly blends haute horlogerie with stunning aesthetics. The luminescent steel "Sword" hands on the open-worked split-second chronograph dial provide readability in any lighting, complemented by SuperLuminova-treated hours and minutes hands. Its 42.5mm stainless-steel case boasts a height of 15.3mm (with glass-box) and a perceived height of 10.5mm (bezel to case-back). The sapphire crystal glass-box with anti-reflective treatment and the transparent case back offer a captivating view of the intricate Calibre SXH6 movement within. The watch is water-resistant up to 120m, featuring a screwed-down crown for added durability.

The movement, Calibre SXH6, is a powerhouse with a 60-hour power reserve and operates at a frequency of 4 Hz (28,800 VpH). The recycled 5N rose gold rotor with the Czapek logo adds a touch of sustainability to the timepiece. The integrated stainless steel bracelet, equipped with the exclusive "Easy Release" system, enhances wearability, while additional options like calf leather or rubber straps provide versatility. The meticulous finish is evident in the finely shotblasted bridges, hand-polished chamfers, linear satin-finished chronograph levers, circular satin-finished wheels, and black-polished screws, studs, and column wheels. The blue fumé sapphire glass minutes ring and counters with PVD evaporation contribute to the watch's distinctive appearance. The Czapek Antarctique Rattrapante Ice Blue is a true embodiment of precision, functionality, and aesthetic excellence.
