It is a tribute to the location where François Czapek founded the company in Geneva in 1845. Our cases were designed to be like a pocket watch perfectly fitting on a wrist. The generous and smooth round shape of the case, and the beauty of its curves, are an expression of the purity of the brand._x000D_ _x000D_ The Quai des Bergues Emerald Green L is featuring our distinctive ‘Revolution' case with their sandblasted stretchers on the flanks._x000D_ _x000D_ THE DIAL_x000D_ _x000D_ ‘Flinqué' is a technique combining the stamping of geometric patterns, which have been initially engraved on a dial using the guilloché technique, with enamelling. The guilloché pattern used with the original ‘flinqué' technique was so recognizable that it gave it its name. Nowadays any pattern can be used in a ‘flinqué' dial. Czapek had its partner Metalem recreate its own ‘Ricochet ®' design – a motif inspired by the ripples of a stone skipped on a lake – on a stamping tool. Once the décor is stamped on a silver plate, an intense ‘moiré' enamel is applied by another Czapek partner, Donzé Cadran. It is then finally fired in a kiln to harden the enamel. The process is repeated several times until the right hue is achieved._x000D_
