To mark the 100th anniversary of the first Prestex pocket watch, Duckworth Prestex have unveiled a Centenary Watch. A modern recreation of a 1935 Art Deco Prestex dress watch, the new watch is a true heritage piece.
Duckworth Prestex is the British watchmaking brand brought back to life in 2021 by Neil Duckworth, a direct descendent of its founder.
The new Centenary watch is authentic down to the dial font. Also, the small seconds rectangular sub dial also is exactly the same as the original.
Available in a range of dial executions including our personal favourite: a stunning salmon pink. With blue applied indices and hands, a blue leather strap is the perfect complement.
Furthermore, options with a midnight blue or cream dial are also available with a choice of leather straps or a milanese bracelet. A modern quartz Ronda movement keeps the watch slim. Additionally, it’s water resistance to 50m and equipped with a sapphire crystal.
