A sports watch defined by restraint rather than noise.
The Antarctique Dark Sector shows Czapek at its most disciplined—where dial, case, bracelet and movement are conceived as a single architectural idea. Since its 2015 revival, the brand has focused on independent watchmaking that values proportion, clarity, and long-term design integrity over trend-driven detail.
The SXH5 micro-rotor calibre delivers refined mechanical execution at a level rarely seen in integrated sports watches, while the anthracite dial’s segmented geometry replaces traditional markers with rhythm and negative space. The brushed titanium case and integrated bracelet keep the focus on lightness, balance, and wearability.
We carry it for collectors who already own the obvious references—and are now looking for something quieter, sharper, and more deliberate on the wrist.
A micro-rotor calibre built from a blank sheet and finished on both sides.
The SXH5 is Czapek’s first fully in-house automatic movement, developed to express the same clarity and restraint that defines the Antarctique Dark Sector. 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 efficiency and balance.
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 contemporary laser engraving, ensuring every visible surface is treated with the same level of attention as the dial side.
