A poetic meditation on the fleeting nature of time, where each day becomes a moment to be cherished before it disappears like foam upon the water.

A watch that tells the time… and a story.

L’Écume des jours coming to life through the delicate choreography of gears, hands and craftsmanship. A journey from imagination to mechanics, where every detail captures the fleeting beauty of time.

The dial of L'Écume des Jours began as a study in pearled mother-of-pearl. Chloé Desbiolles, a designer at Czapek, proposed a dial built around Boris Vian novel's central motifs. A ring of piano keys circles the fl**ge, a graphic nod to the pianocktail, Colin's cocktail-composing instrument, and at the 4:30 position, signature of the Goutte d'Eau model, a water lily flower marks the seconds, in tribute to Chloé.
The base Goutte d'Eau enamel dial is produced by Donzé Cadrans, its logo applied in a silvered powder decal. A craftsman at MD'Art then laser-lowers the recesses that will receive the mother-of-pearl ring, its black keys hand-painted, and the jade disc set beneath the seconds display, both fixed by hand. The jade is further laser-worked to form the seconds track. The water lily seconds hand is laser-cut from titanium, a metal chosen for its light weight, allowing the hand to rotate freely, then finished in miniature painting. During assembly with the movement, it is set at the centre of the jade disc.

Collecting rare people.
And, sometimes, the rare worlds they leave behind.
In the Paris apartment of Boris Vian, we unveiled L’Écume des jours — a timepiece inspired by the poetry, imagination and wonderfully surreal universe of one of France’s most singular minds.

A moment where watchmaking met literature, music and the art of living differently.

A promenade between water lilies and music.
The Promenade L’Écume des Jours features a dial layered in blue enamel, mother-of-pearl and jade, beneath a titanium water-lily seconds hand, and is powered by the Manufacture’s Calibre SXH5.1.
Limited to just 18 pieces, it draws inspiration from Boris Vian’s famous novel L’Écume des jours, which tells the story of Colin and Chloé, a love story undone by illness and by a world that bends under the weight of its own imagination. Two of the novel’s inventions have entered popular culture in their own right: the pianocktail, a piano that creates a cocktail to match the mood of the music played on it, and the water lily that takes root in Chloé’s lung—a surreal metaphor for a love as fragile as it is inexorable, and for the illness that ultimately consumes it.
Visible through the sapphire caseback, the automatic Calibre SXH5.1 features a variable-inertia balance fitted with four gold inertia-blocks and beating at 4Hz (28,800vph). Power comes from a micro-rotor in recycled 950 platinum. Its seven skeletonised bridges are inspired by François Czapek’s nineteenth-century pocket watches, finished with open-worked ratchets, sandblasted black bridges, bevelled angles and straight-grained sides.

At the heart of the Czapek Complicité Glacier Blue, two independent regulating organs beat in perfect synchrony — a remarkable mechanical dialogue where precision becomes poetry.

A creation limited to just 10 pieces in platinum.
