In order to meet the demand from its fans, Czapek & Cie has moved into more spacious, newly renovated premises. The move comes after a period of strong growth for this young, independent watch company. The company’s new standalone building in La-Chaux-de Fonds, a hub of Swiss watchmaking, houses a large, light-filled room with windows on three sides overlooking the surrounding greenery. It is the inspiring workspace for a growing team of watchmakers tasked with fulfilling Czapek’s surging order book. How this was achieved in a few years is the remarkable story of a young brand that strategically defied the odds in a competitive market. For a new watchmaker, reaching the five year mark is crucial.
