The little drawers on mine were empty. There were no extra full or 1/2 sized links in those drawers.
Mike said he had some he could send, but he's out until the end of the month. However, if these are supposed to be in the box from the get-go, they are missing in mine. |

A bracelet and one strap is included with Czapek. If you desire more they are available. Rolex does not even offer such options, and Patek, Bvlgari, Cartier, etc do not even offer such 'extras' on some models. My point being, it depends on the manufacture, and perhaps even the specific model.
Though yes, it would be great if, for example, Rolex included a bracelet and three different color rubber straps, plus a leather strap for good measure.

I ordered directly from Czapek. We don't have an Czapek Agent in South Africa. I did not specifically request them but did receive them. |

Before we had the microadjuster, we were including a 1.5 link.
Once the microadjuster came, we stopped that. We do offer 7mm (vs 9mm regular) and 11mm links at $50 each. We only have them for the new screwed bracelet, we've no more for the older push pin bracelet. |

I specifically said VC offers both rubber and leather strap, included, when you buy the Overseas and that it would be nice if Czapek did the same. |

I agree that it would be nice if the rubber strap clasp had a micro adjustment or some type of fine adjustment. Some deployants have two options to place the rubber strap instead of one, for finer adjustment. I don't mind that it doesn't come on a leather strap. I think the rubber looks so much nicer anyway, and it is too sporty to wear on leather for me. (I think the same is true for VC... I'm not sure I would use the leather that often.) The option to purchase seems good enough, especially if it keeps the overall package a bit cheaper. Regarding weight, I would say on the bracelet it feels fairly typical. Definitely not as light as titanium, which I own watches which are 50% lighter with titanium. On the rubber strap it does feel quite light and comfortable, and it sheds ~50g, so a good chunk of its weight. |

I'm keen on the Czapek. Been watching for a while and it's slowly moving towards the centre on my radar now.
What's the servicing intervals and where? Can a normal watchmaker service it or have to be sent back to HQ? |

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? |

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. |

Mine broke after a few months - sent it in to the recommended watchmaker in June and I will likely get it back after the holidays. 6+ months for repair on a new watch is not ideal.
