A Renaissance Rooted in History
Czapek Geneve's origins can be traced back to the 19th century, when François Czapek, a Polish watchmaker of Czech descent, established the brand in Geneva. His partnership with the legendary Patek Philippe birthed masterpieces adorned with themes of Polish heritage, cementing the brand's reputation for excellence.
However, the paths diverged, and Czapek Geneve soared, earning the esteemed title of 'Purveyors to the Imperial Court of Emperor Napoleon III'. The brand's reawakening in 2015 marked a new chapter, with Xavier de Roquemaurel, Harry Guhl, and Sébastien Follonier breathing new life into this horological icon.
