PRESS RELEASE - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Geckota confirms British Watchmakers’ Day 2026 appearance and unveils the Pioneer “Graphite Special Edition”.
London, United Kingdom - 10 January 2026 - Geckota today announces it will be participating in British Watchmakers’ Day 2026, returning to Lindley Hall, Westminster, London on Saturday 7 March 2026. Marking the occasion, the brand also introduces a new event special: the Pioneer Graphite Special Edition, a strictly limited Pioneer designed around contrast, clarity and colour.
Created to celebrate British Watchmakers’ Day 2026, the Pioneer Graphite Special Edition pairs a brushed grey, dual-layer dial with bold detailing, then invites the wearer to finish the composition with their preferred accent: the watch is supplied on a yellow, white, blue, or orange premium rubber strap, fitted with a folding buckle.
Limited to 50 pieces, the Graphite Special Edition builds on the Pioneer’s distinctive cushion-case silhouette and everyday-wear specification - including a sapphire crystal, 10ATM water resistance, and the dependable time-only TMI NH38 automatic movement.
“British Watchmakers’ Day is the perfect place to celebrate that spirit: British brands, enthusiasts, and special editions made for the day. The Graphite Special Edition is our ‘canvas’ Pioneer - a clean base that comes alive with the wearer’s choice of colour.”
