Czapek & Cie has announced the release of a new edition of its Antarctique Rattrapante, named Ice Blue. The sportive, open-worked split-second chronograph now appears with a touch of blue that enhances the hands and rings on its dial. This model features traditionally blued hands that harmonise well with the weave of metallic greys inside the open-worked watch. A closer look reveals a fumé blue shimmer emanating from the minute track and the two totalizer tracks. The effect is produced by the use of sapphire crystal rings that have been treated with metal oxides applied by an evaporation process.
