This might be a middle eastern retailer's own store LE.
This might be announced at Dubai Watch Week.

But who can be sure?

[Chiboy]

I wonder if it will be a limited edition?

Quiet here the last couple of weeks, so let me ask a question:

If you had carte blanche at Czapek's design table, what would you make?

New movement, new color, new what?

[Bug04]

Yes: new complications (eg: dual time)
No: new colors, new LE

Another vote for a dual time, or better yet a Traveller GMT.

I think delivery next year, maybe q4 2024/q1 2025.
Probably only be say 30 pieces.

Blue dial also so will be nice as rose and blue is lovely.

Whatever they make in the future, perhaps they could come out with fewer limited editions - as every one of their beautiful pieces is limited - when compared to larger brands. Seeing so many beautiful limited editions makes them less available and perhaps less special.

For example, why limit their Chrono with the Aventurine dial to just 50 pieces. Perhaps, from a marketing perspective it makes the watch more desirable, and it might take a long time before these 50 are sold - but it would be great if they were still available down the road to acquire - and Czapek still being able to offer them - rather than coming up with another limited edition dial and not being able to offer more Aventurine dials - due to the limited one having been produced.

I doubt they are less special to the people who bought them. And I don't see the problem with limited editions in general. If there is something you miss out on, it makes the hunt for it all the more intriguing down the road, which is half the fun of watch collecting.

Dual time, two 'upper-ish dials with power reserve indicator below/between them

[Jacobkg]

Anyone put in for the 38.5 Sashiko preorder? Those dials are gorgeous and I’m definitely tempted

I would love a dual time with hidden second hour hand accompanied by a moonphase. No need for a date complication or second hand, keep it clean. A complimentary dial would be nice as well, I think the Passage de Drake dial wouldn't look right with a moonphase.

I don't want to drag a sales related link into this thread, but I found a gorgeous Antarctique Abyss Special Edition listed in the Toppers Pre-Owned section, but when I was looking at the gallery I noticed some oxidization / corrosion stains on the movement (I think?). Has anyone else noticed this on their watches?

No sign of it on mine. If you're considering the watch, perhaps reach out to the retailer or Czapek and aks their opinion of what happened, and whether it can be rectified.

This watch was pulled from the market, and is going back to the factory for restoration.

^^^ good man. Love how Czapek listens and takes positive action....

Color me a True Believer, sure, yet as GB_man says, we're all watching carefully and so far Czapek has never let us down (other than long waits for delivery when the entire friggen world is forced to shut down).

So, hmmm, which color rubber strap to wear today? Or maybe the bracelet? Hmmm, this is my personal Czapek dilemma, this is my problem....
