MODEL SPECIFICALLY CREATED FOR THE CZECH OLYMPIC TEAM – CZECH TEAM PARIS
Limited Edition PRIM Sport Sports Watches
The Czech representatives, just like in the past 8 years, will measure their time for races and rest in the Czech House with original PRIM watches.
The PRIM Czech Team Paris edition is part of the official collection of the Czech Olympic Team for the 2024 Paris Olympic Games. In collaboration with the Czech Olympic Committee, we have prepared two color variants of wristwatches to appeal to everyone. The blue collection is made especially for the Czech Team athletes, while the white and gold variant is designed for the general public.
The limited edition is produced in a symbolic quantity of 124 pieces in the white and gold variant (100 years since the first gold medal and 24 symbolizing the year of the Paris Olympics). The limited blue edition, available to the general public, will have its quantity determined by the number of medals won by our determined team of athletes. How many do you think it will be?!
Martin Doktor and Kateřina Neumannová have become patrons and ambassadors of the PRIM Czech Team Paris watch model.
This year’s motto of the Czech Olympians at the Summer Olympics in France is: “One for all, all for Paris.” The slogan expresses the spirit of team sport and solidarity, which is crucial not only at the Olympic Games but also beyond them. The creators of the motto wanted something that would reflect the host city and unite both athletes and fans.
It was amazing to see the collaboration between our graphic team and the Czech Olympic Committee in creating a collection that not only represents our country but also celebrates our sports heroes and their achievements. The gold color symbolizes the 100th anniversary of the first Olympic gold medal for Czechoslovakia, won by Bedřich Šupčík in 1924. That year marked the eighth Summer Olympic Games in Paris, where Šupčík became the first Czechoslovak athlete to achieve this success by winning the rope climbing event.
The PRIM Czech Team Paris edition celebrates the rich history of Czech sports and honors the achievements of our athletes. The symbolism of the gold variant, connected with Bedřich Šupčík, highlights not only his individual success but also the overall importance of sports for our country. The fusion of past and present through the Czech flag and the dial’s symbolism is striking and evokes a sense of unity and teamwork.
The new collection for the Paris 2024 Olympics therefore features on the dial a prominent element of the silhouette of the Czech flag with the inscription CZE and is equipped with a symbolic texture (pattern/structure).
Official collection of the Czech Olympic Team for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris. This elegant model, inspired by the history of the Czech Republic, features bold numerals at four hour positions and an originally designed embossed dial that carries thematic symbolism.
After purchasing a watch from this special limited series, it will be personalized with the owner’s name, just like every original piece for the Czech representatives. Please include in the note the first and last name you wish to have engraved on the watch.
The sports collection and the dial design for the Czech Olympians were inspired by Václav Havel’s poetry collection Anticodes, first published in 1964. The original dial design prominently features exclamation marks, among which one question mark is cleverly hidden. What does this symbolism mean for the athletes and Paris itself? For some, the exclamation mark represents the endless preparations, training, and hard work, while the question mark is the tip of the iceberg — the dream of every athlete: participation in the Olympic Games. How many medals we will bring home for the Czech Republic is just a question!

Kateřina Neumanová
A former star of world cross-country skiing, the most successful Czech female athlete in the history of the Winter Olympics in terms of medal count, with one gold, four silver, and one bronze medal. She also holds two World Championship titles.
Under the five rings, Kateřina Neumannová competed a total of six times, first in 1992 in Albertville. In Lillehammer, she broke into the top ten, and four years later in Nagano, she won silver in the 5 km classic and bronze in the combined event. At Salt Lake City, she twice finished just off the podium but was later awarded two silver medals after the disqualification of Russian skiers due to doping. The highlight of her career came at the Turin Olympics, where, following another silver in the skiathlon, she finally achieved her coveted gold in the freestyle 30 km with a powerful finishing sprint in her last Olympic race. Besides skiing, she also competed in mountain biking at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics.
Martin Doktor
Thanks to two Olympic gold medals and the same number of World and European Championship titles, he is one of the most prominent figures in Czech sports since the split of Czechoslovakia. Thanks to him, sprint canoeing emerged from the shadow of the more successful canoe slalom. The most famous moments of the canoeist, who was known for wearing a skull-patterned headband, came at the Atlanta Games, where Martin Doktor won both individual events during a single weekend and became a national celebrity.
PRIM Sport 64 GMT
Czech Team
In cooperation with the Czech Olympic Committee, we designed two color variants appreciated by both men and women. Our graphic team was inspired by simple trendy colors—white and blue—complemented by details in the colors of the Czech tricolor. The dark version of the model features a deep blue bezel, dual-time numerals glowing in red, and a blue dial accented with white elements. The PRIM Sport 64 GMT Czech Team sports watch is powered by the Ronda 515.24 caliber. An interesting new feature is the GMT complication, which allows easy reading of time across different time zones and is appreciated by both athletes and fans in the Czech Republic. For the first time in the company’s history, we produced a titanium case for the Sport model, which is perfectly durable and at the same time very lightweight. (weight of the watch)
The original embossed dial features a figure motif with sporty indexes coated in a luminous layer, protected by high-quality sapphire crystal. The designers created luminous sporty hands for the main time and a carefully crafted hand with a figure motif for the GMT time. The square date window remains at the traditional 3 o’clock position. The sporty look is complemented by a blue or white unidirectional rotating bezel made of sapphire glass, featuring a minute scale and the CZECH TEAM logo. The watch comes with two original high-quality straps with an easy-click system – a leather version embossed with the CZECH TEAM logo and the tricolor on the strap’s side, and a sporty silicone strap with a colorful logo.
The screw-down crown is adorned with a logo that reflects our values of tradition and modernity. The letter “P” is connected by a circular arc, symbolizing the passage of time. This element is a key symbol of our brand. Athletes will appreciate the screw-down crown, which guarantees water resistance up to 10 ATM—a feature our ambassadors test under extreme conditions during their sporting activities. Thanks to the screw-down crown and the threaded case back, you can confidently jump into water and dive with this model.
