The Sockeye is part of CZAPEK & CIE’s new Faubourg Cracovie salmon collection of watches, named after famous salmon species from the Pacific Ocean. The dial design was inspired by a bespoke piece created for a collector who requested a watch from the Quai des Bergues line with a salmon-coloured guilloché dial and blue hands and numerals. The dial of the Sockeye is made of alloy 401, a combination of 55% gold and a mixture of platinum, palladium and silver with an electroplated salmon finish. It was made by the craftspeople at Metalem, Czapek’s partner in Le Locle. The steel case houses a high frequency (36,000 vph) automatic movement, the calibre SXH3, an outstanding integrated column-wheel chronograph movement, bearing the COSC Chronometer certification and made by Vaucher Manufacture Fleurier. Limited edition to 18 pieces.
