Description

Inspired by textiles, the Plissé dial is the result of a complex stamping process that gives the impression of fabric being pushed aside by the weight of the sub-dial to bunch up into pleats across the dial. This creates an intriguing play of light and shade and the illusion of flowing, dance-like movement across the dial as the wearer moves his or her wrist. The new stamping technique was developed in partnership with Czapek’s regular collaborator, Metalem. An added challenge in developing the Plissé dial was to integrate the applied indexes within the contours of the pleats. Plissé is presented in three colours: Ivory, Pearl White and Rose, the latter equipped with a Milanese mesh steel bracelet. Production of each colour will be limited to 18 pieces.

Allowing the decoration to take centre stage, the timekeeping indications are pared back to a minimum: fine, semi-skeletonised arrow-shaped hands and applied indexes with diamond-cut angles to reflect the light.

Features

Presented in a slim 38mm case, Promenade expresses a relaxed and quietly confident sophistication, injected with playfulness and joie de vivre. The signature of the Promenade dial is asymmetry: the designs radiate from the small seconds dial placed at 4:30, producing a sense of dynamic tension. In 2025 Czapek introduces a new dial – Plissé(pleats) – in three colours.

Promenade looks to fashion as a frame of reference – from cinema icons to haute couture futuristic pleats and light-as-air silks that marry tailoring tradition and high technology, and the eternally modern Le Smoking – created in 1966, the OC of androgynous style.
