Earlier in the week, Czapek unveiled its newest time-teller, the Antarctique Purple Storm, at The Horology Club’s 3rd Anniversary event in Hong Kong. The watch features a tantalizing purple dial that reflects the brand’s passion for artistic self-expression.

To bring this stunning timepiece to life, Czapek enlisted Swiss dial specialist Metalem to hand-varnish the watch face, making every example truly unique. The distinct pattern evokes an enigmatic mood that captures the mesmerizing hues of a natural storm. With hour markers omitted, the dial fully expresses itself.

Powered by the Czapek’s in-house SXH5 caliber, the movement offers 60 hours of continuous running time, while its 40.5mm case can withstand 12 ATM of water resistance The watch is accompanied by a matching metal bracelet as well as a complimentary strap of your choice.

Limited to 18 pieces, the Antarctique Purple Storm is priced at 25,000 CHF (approx. USD) and is available for pre-order via Czapek’s website, its Geneva boutique as well as its official retailers worldwide.
