The collection is as much about style and artistic expression as mechanical excellence and Diamond Drops takes a ‘promenade’ in a new territory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe new dial is a dazzling sequel to the original Gouttes d’Eau, which captures the ripple effect when a drop of water (a goutte d’eau in French) falls onto the surface of a calm pond. The ripples emanate from the off-centred small seconds sub-dial, which serves as the impact point. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiamond Drops is a natural progression from that first expression of the idea, says Xavier de  Roquemaurel, CEO of Czapek \u0026amp; Cie. “When we sold out of Gouttes d’Eau during its launch at Watches and Wonders 2024 we immediately started playing with other water in its various forms – how it looks when light dances on the surface, how dewdrops sparkle on a sunny morning, what happens when water freezes to become snow or ice… This invited us to play not only with design, colour and materials but also the craft of gem-setting, asking ourselves how we could express the original idea in new ways.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCzapek turned to its trusted partner, AB Products to meet the challenge of creating the Diamond Drops dial. For snow-setting, rather than creating uniform rows of gems held bygold claws, the gem-setter chooses differently sized stones – many less than 0.5 mm in diameter – which are placed into tiny wells hollowed out of the 18K white gold dial base. Each must be set as close as possible to its neighbour, like a microscopic jigsaw puzzle of gemstones. Adding to the challenge, a watch dial must be very thin with a perfectly flat surface, every stone had to be individually measured and the size of the well adapted to its exact size to ensure a perfectly flush finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhile the snow-setting technique always demands an exceptional level of gem-setting skill, combining stones of different hardness and contrasting colours adds further complexity. Along with the diamonds, sapphires in different shades of blue are used, to make the final effect as naturalistic as possible. Setting the 360 diamonds (~1.5 cts) and 319 sapphires (~1.58 cts) requires six days of intensely focused work. Representing an additional two days of work, the bezel, flange and crown are set with a total of 173 diamonds (~1.63 cts).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTHE MOVEMENT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince its introduction in May 2020, the automatic Calibre SXH5 has continually evolved.  For Promenade, Czapek and its engineers played with its architecture purely for the sake of the dial aesthetics – another example of the Maison’s “Beauty above all” approach, positioning the small seconds mechanism now directly beneath, and on the same axis as the dial display. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImmediately recognisable by the six skeletonised bridges that hold the gear train in place – inspired by the 19th-century pocket watches of François Czapek – the movement plates and bridges feature fine haute horlogerie finishes, including bevelling, straight-grained sides and hand-chamfered inward angles. Beating at 4Hz (28,800 vph) and wound by a micro rotor with a mass of 100% recycled platinum, SXH5 offers 60 hours of power reserve.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEVERY DETAIL COUNTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn fine watchmaking, every little detail counts. Besides the exceptional SHX5 movement and the sleek and sharp design of the case or the dial, a great deal of attention was put on the straps.

This atmospheric  effect gives the watch a refined, almost meditative presence,  transforming the passage of time into a visual experience reminiscent of  midnight reflected on still water. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePATENTED LAYERED CONSTRUCTION\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis remarkable appearance is achieved through a patented  sandwich construction that unites Tahitian mother-of-pearl with  aventurine glass. The nacre foundation, selected for its grey tone and  natural violet-green reflections, is thinned to roughly 0.2 mm and  overlaid with an equally thin sheet of blue aventurine. Embedded  metallic particles within the glass create a fine, star-like shimmer.  Together, the layers produce a dial measuring only about 0.4 mm thick,  yet possessing extraordinary visual richness and complexity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECHNICAL MASTERY IN ASSEMBLY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBringing these fragile components together requires meticulous  hand assembly and advanced machining techniques. Every cut — from the  dial’s perimeter to the apertures for applied markers — must be executed  with extreme precision to avoid damaging the materials. The creation of  the small-seconds subdial presents an additional challenge, as a groove  must be milled into the aventurine layer without penetrating the nacre  beneath. Such operations demand careful programming and steady  craftsmanship, pushing the limits of what is technically achievable in  dial manufacturing. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUNIQUE WITHIN A LIMITED SERIES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe extreme thinness of the aventurine layer makes it highly  susceptible to breakage during production, further reducing yield and  increasing rarity. Within the limited edition of thirty-eight pieces,  each dial displays its own pattern of sparkle and iridescence due to  natural variations in both materials. Artisans strive for visual harmony  while embracing these differences, ensuring that every watch possesses a  distinct personality. The Promenade Midnight Pearl thus combines  technical innovation with natural individuality, resulting in a  collection where no two examples are ever truly alike. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Czapek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171271950507,"sku":"promenade-midnight-pearl-strap","price":23600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/2783\/3515\/files\/5610271899.jpg?v=1780528721"},{"product_id":"czapek-x-fratello-promenade-transparencies-viridian-green-1706","title":"Czapek x Fratello Promenade Transparencies Viridian Green 1706","description":"\u003cp\u003eThroughout Czapek’s rich history, it has a strong connection to Paris, where François Czapek had a boutique at Place Vendôme. It's only apt, then, that the story of our beautiful Viridian Green should also begin in this city. Viridian Green pigment was first prepared in 1838 in Paris in the midst of its artistic radicalization. Parisian color chemist and painter Antoine-Claude Pannetier discovered the pigment as a hydrated form of chromium oxide. The preparation process was demanding, expensive, and shrouded in secrecy. However, in 1859, French painter Adrian Guignet improved on Pannetier's recipe, patenting the cheaper production method and making it more accessible. This led to Viridian Green becoming a staple color on the palettes of impressionist artists of the time. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Czapek","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47171272114347,"sku":"1706","price":40000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/2783\/3515\/files\/5769546403.jpg?v=1780528729"},{"product_id":"czapek-promenade-goutte-de-rosee","title":"Czapek Promenade Goutte De Rosée","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMORNING DEW REIMAGINED\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Promenade Goutte de Rosée reinterprets Czapek’s celebrated Goutte d’Eau in a radiant new form, pairing a 38mm 18K yellow gold case with a mesmerising green Grand Feu enamel dial.

The intricate wave motif is first stamped into a sterling silver base before artisans apply multiple layers of translucent green enamel by hand, firing the dial repeatedly at high temperatures after each stage. Variations in enamel thickness across the relief create remarkable depth and shifting tones, producing the illusion of rippling water on a perfectly smooth surface.

Green enamel reacts unpredictably with silver, making adhesion and consistency especially difficult to master. Donzé Cadrans tested numerous enamel formulations before finding the perfect balance of colour, stability, and translucency. The pronounced relief of the dial further increased the complexity, requiring flawless enamel coverage across both deep recesses and raised surfaces. The demanding process results in rejection rates approaching 50 percent, ensuring that every finished dial represents a rare achievement in traditional enamel craftsmanship.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSINGULAR BEAUTY, INSIDE AND OUT\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo two Promenade Goutte de Rosée dials are identical. Subtle variations in enamel thickness and hand-finishing give each piece its own unique character, ranging from richer emerald tones to more pronounced wave textures beneath the translucent surface. Beneath the dial beats the in-house Calibre SXH5.1, visible through the sapphire caseback and distinguished by its recycled platinum micro-rotor and elegant openworked bridges inspired by François Czapek’s historic pocket watches.
