On Saturday 4th July 2026, Prestex is delighted to be exhibiting at the inaugural Southampton Watch Show, hosted by The Watch Collectors' Club at St Mary's Stadium, Southampton.
Bringing together more than 30 leading independent and enthusiast watch brands, the event promises to be one of the UK's standout watch gatherings of the year. Whether you're an experienced collector, a mechanical watch enthusiast or simply looking to discover something new, it's a fantastic opportunity to spend a day immersed in independent watchmaking.
Most importantly for Prestex collectors, this will be the first opportunity to experience our brand-new Prestex VALJOUX 7750 Chronograph collection in person.
Discover the New Prestex VALJOUX 7750
Making its public debut, the new Prestex VALJOUX 7750 Chronograph represents an exciting new chapter for the brand.
Powered by the legendary Swiss-made Valjoux 7750 automatic chronograph movement, this latest collection combines proven mechanical pedigree with bold contemporary styling. Featuring a robust 43mm stainless steel case, sapphire crystal, exhibition case back and striking yellow and green dial options, it has been created for collectors who appreciate authentic Swiss engineering and timeless sports chronographs.
Photography can only tell part of the story.
At Southampton you'll be able to experience the exceptional quality, proportions and finishing first-hand, compare the different dial colours and explore the available leather, suede and rubber strap options.
Meet Neil Duckworth
Throughout the day, Neil Duckworth will be available on the Prestex stand to meet visitors, discuss the inspiration behind the latest collections and answer questions about the future direction of the brand.
Whether you're interested in the history of Prestex, the return to the original Prestex name, or the technical story behind the new VALJOUX 7750 Chronograph, this is a unique opportunity to speak directly with the man behind the brand.
Neil will also be showcasing the wider Prestex collection, including favourites such as the Verimatic, Bolton, Parker, Marcato, Belmont, Swiss Diver, Rivington GMT and more.
Be Among the First to Order
Visitors to the Southampton Watch Show will have the opportunity to place one of the very first orders for the new Prestex VALJOUX 7750 Chronograph.
If you've been waiting to see the watch in person before making your decision, this is the perfect opportunity to experience every detail up close before securing your own.
