Czapek & Cie Faubourg de Cracovie for Only Watch 2019

Czapek & Cie. Faubourg de Cracovie for Only Watch 2019

Based on Czapek’s COSC-certified, 5 Hz, integrated chronograph Faubourg de Cracovie, the Only Watch unique piece features a 5-grade titanium case with ADLC® coating and a magnificent black onyx dial that is beautifully offset by light blue chalcedony counters - a reference to the official colour of Only Watch 8th edition.
 
For the second time, Czapek & Cie. supports the fight against muscular dystrophy with a one-of-a-kind piece, the Faubourg de Cracovie Only Watch, a black onyx and striped chalcedony dial version of its audacious and charming sporty chronograph. Chalcedony is a light blue rare semi-precious stone with natural stripes. The light blue hue pays tribute to the Only Watch 2019 official colour. The dial of the watch hosts the inscription “Courage every second”, the same sentence that was “secretly” engraved on the enamel dial of the unique piece created by the Geneva-based brand for Only Watch 2017. “Courage every second is now becoming Czapek signature to support Only Watch and the battle against this disease. It is a reminder of the purpose of our own life, of our passage on earth, and as well a way to let our heart beat in harmony with the kids and their family” says Xavier de Roquemaurel, CEO of Czapek & Cie. The 41.5 mm 5-grade titanium case with black ADLC® coating is fitted with a sapphire crystal glass-box. It is powered by the SXH3 caliber, a 5Hz, column-wheel, automatic chronograph movement built by Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier in a bespoke execution for Czapek.
