Marcato by PRESTEX – Jumping Hour Automatic
Limited Edition – 100 Pieces Per Dial
Introducing the Marcato by PRESTEX — a refined interpretation of the classic jumping hour, reimagined with contemporary precision and unmistakable British character. Produced as a strictly limited edition of just 100 pieces per dial, the Marcato represents a rare opportunity to secure a distinctive mechanical complication in controlled numbers.
Inspired by traditional Prestex vintage design codes, the Marcato pairs a beautifully proportioned 39mm cushion case with a clean, considered dial layout. At 9 o’clock, the instantaneous jumping hour display delivers a crisp mechanical snap at the top of each hour, while a central minute hand provides elegant balance and everyday legibility. The result is a display that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly modern.
Inside beats the renowned Sellita SW300 automatic movement, chosen for its slim profile, reliability and superior finishing. Developed exclusively for PRESTEX, our in-house JP1 Jumping Hour module transforms this proven calibre into something truly distinctive — combining traditional Swiss engineering with our own horological innovation. The watch is completed with a sapphire exhibition case back, offering a clear view of the movement within.
Three dial executions define the launch collection, each limited to 100 pieces:
• “Porcelain” All White finish – Clean, architectural and timeless
• Sky Blue centre circle – A contemporary accent with vintage restraint
• Silver Guilloché centre circle – Textural refinement with classical depth
