A meteorite dial that refuses to look like anyone else’s watch.
The Antarctique Green Meteor is where Czapek’s integrated sports watch meets one of nature’s oldest materials. Since its revival in 2015, the brand has built its reputation on independent thinking and careful execution, treating every design choice as part of a single, resolved system.
The Gibeon meteorite dial is transformed with layered green lacquer, revealing shifting textures that are entirely unique to each piece, while the SXH5 micro-rotor calibre and integrated bracelet maintain the same level of precision and restraint found across the Antarctique line.
We carry it for collectors who already own the familiar references — and are now looking for something that carries both technical credibility and genuine material rarity.
A micro-rotor calibre built from a blank page and finished on both sides.
The SXH5 is Czapek’s first fully in-house automatic movement, developed to express the same independent design language as the Antarctique collection. It runs on a single barrel delivering approximately 60 hours of power reserve, with a 22k gold off-centre micro-rotor that opens the architecture of the movement while maintaining refined efficiency.
A free-sprung balance with four gold adjustable inertia weights allows precise regulation, while seven skeletonised bridges structure the gear train in an open, architectural layout. Finishing combines traditional haute horlogerie anglage with modern laser engraving, ensuring every visible surface is considered as carefully as the dial side.
Servicing is handled directly through our relationship with Czapek in Geneva, where the movement is fully inspected, regulated and returned to us. Turnaround is typically six to eight weeks, and we can provide a loan watch while yours is away.

A relationship, not a transaction.
Every watch we sell stays close to us. We organise servicing, source straps, and answer the telephone ourselves — for as long as the watch is yours, and the wrist after that.
When the time comes, we arrange the full service through Czapek and handle the shipping both ways.
Replacement straps and bracelets at cost, in any material the manufacture offers, fitted in person at the bench.
You speak to Jason — for a warranty question, a service interval, or simply a second opinion — for as long as you own the watch.
Hold it once. Turn it over.
A watch makes more sense in the hand than on a screen — particularly through the sapphire back. Book a viewing at 900 West Hastings St., Vancouver and we will put a loupe in your hand.
