Product description
The Czapek Antarctique Rattrapante R.U.R. – Tribute to Karel Čapek unites fine watchmaking with a literary homage to the Czech author who gave the world the word “robot.” Inspired by Čapek’s visionary play R.U.R., this creation explores the relationship between humanity and technology – a dialogue between precision, creativity, and emotion.
Its 42.5 mm stainless steel case blends the sporty spirit of the Antarctique line with refined haute horlogerie aesthetics. The skeletonized dial features a robotic head motif whose “eyes” change color with the chronograph’s state – yellow for start, red for stop, and blue for reset – a clever nod to Čapek’s philosophical reflection on machines and mankind.
Inside beats the in-house SXH6 calibre, a monopusher rattrapante chronograph developed with Chronode, capable of measuring two elapsed times simultaneously. With 120 m water resistance, a sapphire caseback, and an integrated steel bracelet, this timepiece embodies innovation, intellect, and the art of time itself.

The Antarctique collection by Czapek & Cie represents the pinnacle of contemporary independent watchmaking. This luxury sports watch stands out for its integrated design, elegantly shaped case and precise in-house movement SXH5, whose architecture is aesthetically and technically impressive.
Antarctique combines robustness with subtle elegance - brushed surfaces, skeletonised rotors and sophisticated dials with original textures create a distinctive yet balanced whole. The collection will appeal to discerning collectors and lovers of contemporary style who appreciate independence, technical bravura and understated luxury.
The Czapek & amp; Cie brand continues the legacy of the Polish-Czech watchmaker Francis Czapek, co-founder of Patek, Czapek & amp; Cie in 1839. After his break with Patek, he founded his own brand in Geneva and soon became the court watchmaker to Napoleon III.
After many decades of silence, the brand was revived in 2015 by a group of enthusiasts. Today, it offers exclusive Swiss watches that combine traditional craftsmanship with innovative design. Collections such as Quai des Bergues and Antarctique prove that Czapek & Cie is one of the most distinctive independent brands in contemporary haute horlogerie.
