The Swiss watch world is about to be joined by an exciting new addition with a venerable name. Czapek, a watch brand that achieved considerable success in the nineteenth century, has been revived and is launching with a distinctive timepiece and an innovative sharing strategy to attract watch lovers.
Czapek & Cie was re-established by three entrepreneurs with a passion for fine watches and outstanding mechanics. The original founder, François Czapek was a Czech-born, Polish watchmaker, who arrived in Geneva, Switzerland, in 1832. In 1839 he founded Patek, Czapek & Cie with fellow pole Antoni Patek. For six years they produced exceptional watches.
At the end of their partnership, in 1845, he founded Czapek & Cie and became Purveyor to the French Emperor Napoleon the Third. At its height, the company had boutiques in Geneva, Warsaw and Paris, Place Vendôme.
“Czapek deserves to be revived, he was one of the great watchmakers of the nineteenth century, who brilliantly combined precision mechanics with extremely refined aesthetics”, says Xavier de Roquemaurel, spokesman for the team. Czapek’s timepieces, which are still coveted at auctions, reveal a quest for beauty through a poetic display of time.

No other natural catastrophe impacts as many people as flooding, with an estimated 500 million people affected every year. Insured flood losses are also increasing significantly; 1970's annual claims were between USD 1–2 billion, whereas insured flood losses amounted to USD 15 billion in 2011. Recent flood events in Thailand, Australia and the Philippines have shown that floods are now rivalling earthquakes and hurricanes in terms of economic losses.
However, awareness of flood risks and their impact is still relatively low. Swiss Re's publication Flood – an underestimated risk aims to close this knowledge gap.

Wäre der Champignon ein Mensch, würden wir ihn zu unseren besten Freunden zählen: locker im Umgang, stets um unsere Gesundheit bemüht, reich an positiven Eigenschaften. Tatsächlich fristet er sein Dasein als verkannter Außenseiter im Gemüsefach, der vorzugsweise zum Schnitzel serviert oder als Pizza-Dekoration genutzt wird. Vor allem bei jungen Erwachsenen und Familien geht der Verzehr aus Unwissenheit über die gesundheitsfördernden Eigenschaften besorgniserregend zurück. Dabei ist der Champignon ein wahrer Superheld und sticht mit seinen Eigenschaften Gemüsesorten aus, die weiter oben auf der Beliebtheitsskala der Deutschen stehen: vielseitig verwendbar, reich an wertvollen Mineralien und Vitaminen, kalorienarm, ballaststoffreich, ideal zum Abnehmen, umweltfreundlich im Anbau. Der Champignon liefert damit einen wertvollen Beitrag zu einer gesunden und ausgewogenen Ernährung.

En rupture avec les agences immobilières traditionnelles, Nexity propose un concept innovant, un espace où redécouvrir l’immobilier. Dans la première agence connectée de Lyon, le parcours est personnalisable, ponctué de nouvelles technologies et d’outils digitaux. Il a été imaginé pour élargir l’offre de services disponibles et enrichir l’expérience. Immobilier neuf et ancien, gestion locative, syndic de copropriété : désormais, les clients ont accès à toute l’expertise Nexity dans un seul et même lieu.
L’identité et la connaissance du quartier d’implantation sont également au cœur du concept. Les experts Nexity connaissent toutes les spécificités du marché local, des différents quartiers de Lyon et de la région. Ils peuvent ainsi conseiller les clients aussi bien pour un achat dans le neuf que dans l’ancien. Cette connaissance est relayée par un dispositif innovant dans l’agence : un écran dédié aux indicateurs du quartier (prix au m², montant des dernières transactions, type de biens vendus récemment dans le quartier).
