Czapek and Collective Horology revealed its latest watersports-inspired timepiece called the Antarctique P.04 'Lanikai.' Gabe Reilly, the co-founder of Collective Horology, said: "Our goal with the P.04 Lanikai was to create a sports watch that honors Hawaii's rich tradition of watersport – from surfing to outrigger canoeing – by capturing the unique quality of its waters."
The Antarctique P.04 'Lanikai' results from three years of designing, prototyping, and creative development. The name of the timepiece refers to Hawaii's Lanikai Beach. Donzé Cadrans designed the timepiece's dial, inspired by blue waves typically spotted on Hawaiian beaches. The timepiece has a minimalist design with Super-Luminova coated hour and minute hands, the Czapek logo, and a yellow secondhand that illuminates the dial. Additionally, the timepiece comes with an integrated bracelet with automatic SXH5 in-house movement. The timepiece will only have 50 units available for $26,500 each.
