The Verimatic Watch collection from Duckworth Prestex is inspired by the original Prestex Art Deco dress watch. The quality and reliability of the Verimatic is exceptional, as defined by the word itself. Verimatic is a combination of “veritas” – the Latin word for “truth” – and “automatic”, describing the incredibly reliable automatic movement that has been specified to the brand’s exact requirements.
Case
Firstly, the dynamic 316L stainless steel case uses a combination of brushed and polished finishes. Secondly, its restrained proportions mean that it should feel right at home on all wrist sizes. With a 39mm diameter it is comfortable on the wrist.
Crown, Movement, Dial
The Verimatic’s screw-down crown helps the watch achieve an impressive water resistance rating of 200-metre. Also, a reliable and accurate Miyota 9039 automatic movement beats inside. Furthermore, a powerful BGW9 luminescent compound is used for the numerals and hands, so that legibility even in low light is impressive.
Strap
The Verimatic Collection comes with a a beautiful Italian suede leather strap to complement the textured dial. However, it would look equally at home on a Horween Leather or NATO strap. If you’re feeling adventurous, you could even pick a strap in a contrasting colour to match the seconds hand. All straps have quick-release spring bars so it’s easy to quickly change the strap with no need for tools.
Covered by a Two Year Warranty, the Verimatic from Duckworth Prestex combines watchmaking history with the latest modern technology. It’s certainly come a long way from the original 17-jewelled Swiss movement fitted to the first Prestex watches.
