Rather, ideas morphed and evolved from the initial intention of developing a women’s watch with a collector-quality mechanism to the desire to make a chic and modern watch that would appeal to those with an eye for style and appreciation of mechanical sophistication – regardless of gender.“We have always believed that gender divisions in watchmaking are largely artificial,” says Xavier de Roquemarel, CEO of Czapek & Cie. “Beauty and creativity unite men and women; making a beautiful watch cannot be reduced to a gender split. A beautiful watch will please men and women equally, in the same way that a beautifully tailored smoking [tuxedo suit] looks equally wonderful on men and women.”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 Marilyn Monroe’s chic-and-sexy white pleated dress inThe Seven-Year Itch to Issey Miyake’s futuristic pleats (for men and women) and light-as-air silks that marry couture tradition and high technology, and Yves Saint Laurent’s eternally modern le smoking – created in 1966, the OC of androgynous style.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.A Sleek Case and a Sophisticated CalibreThe imperative for Promenade was that the 38mm case should be slim, which called for a micro-rotor movement.Thus, Czapek translated the strengths of its in-house calibre SXH5 into this new identity, playing with its architecture to achieve the desired dial aesthetics.The Promenade case is a modern evolution of Czapek’s icon – the original Quai des Bergues model – recognisable by the recessed and sand-blasted case sides, the curved crown protection, and a slim, rounded bezel.The Promenade Plissé will be available at the Maison’s official retailers worldwide, the Czapek boutique in Geneva, Switzerland, and at Czapek.com. Deliveries will start in the first quarter of 2026. ## Appearance - **Colors:** Ivory - **Materials:** Steel ## Variants - **In stock:** 1 of 1 - **Available:** Ivory | Color | SKU | Availability | | --- | --- | --- | | Ivory | 47171271164075 | In stock | ## Categories - **Categories:** New ## Additional Attributes - **tags:** Promenade, Smart Search - **Color:** Ivory - **Crown:** Curved crown protection - **Glass:** Sapphire crystal - **Hands:** Silver skeletonized - **Shape:** Round - **Gender:** Men's - **vendor:** Czapek - **Caseback:** Exhibition - **Material:** Steel - **Warranty:** 3 Year - **Condition:** New - **Functions:** Hour, minutes and small seconds dial placed at 4:30 - **Buckle Type:** Pin Buckle - **Dial Markers:** Indexes - **product type:** New - **Movement Type:** Automatic - **shopify handle:** czapek-promenade-plisse-ivory - **Case Description:** Stainless Steel, slim rounded bezel - **Dial Description:** Ivory - **Reference Number:** plisee-ivory - **Water Resistance:** 50m (5 ATM / 165 ft) — suitable for Showering, surface swimming - **Case Diameter ⌀:** 38mm - **Strap Description:** Alcantara - **Movement Description:** Mechanical Automatic, Caliber Czapek SXH5, 56 hours power reserve ## Enrichment - **Type:** wristwatch - **Type Synonyms:** watch - **Tags:** plissé dial, textured dial, leather strap, analog display, small seconds subdial, steel case, minimalist markers - **Styles:** luxury, classic, sophisticated - **Colors:** ivory - **Color Families:** White - **Category Path:** Apparel & Accessories > Jewelry > Watches > Fine Watches - **Band color:** Brown - **Band pattern:** Solid - **Case color:** Silver - **Case pattern:** Solid - **Dial color:** Beige - **Dial pattern:** Illusion, Texture - **Watch case shape:** Round - **Watch display:** Analog - **Watch material:** Stainless Steel - **Canonical Brand:** Czapek & Cie ## Images - ![Image 1](https://cdn.storerouter.ai/d55c03c2dd843226ac73ea9ea9869910/b1b43305db823de8d7b199f7b6a243f1.webp) --- *Source: cosimo.shop | Product ID: 26a94889-a31e-529a-bf24-0b986c4afe38 | Canonical URL: https://cosimo.shop/product/czapek-cie/czapek-promenade-plisse-invory-26a94889-a31e-529a-bf24-0b986c4afe38*
