Wristwatch Check Is The Ultimate Pit Stop For Luxury Cars And Timepieces Ahead Of The Australian Grand Prix

• Motorsport fans will get up close and personal with luxury cars in Melbourne.
• The event will celebrate independent watchmakers from across the globe.
• VIP tickets are available now.

Ahead of this year’s Australian Grand Prix, where 20 of the world’s best will line up for the opening race of the 2025 Formula 1 season, another luxury car event is taking place just a short drive away in Melbourne’s Docklands area – one that champions independent watchmakers and women in motorsport, all while supporting mental health charity Beyond Blue.

Wristwatch Check is an exclusive gathering that blends high-end automobiles with independent watch brands. As the world’s revheads descend on the Victorian capital for a weekend of motorsport, this unique experience is essential viewing for enthusiasts looking for something away from the regular Formula 1 programming.

Set within the iconic Fox Classic Car Collection museum, this intimate event will host just 400 guests on Saturday, 15 March 2025, providing an up-close look at some of the world’s finest machines – both on wheels and wrists.

Wristwatch Check Celebrates Independent Watchmakers

Guests will have the opportunity to browse an exclusive selection of independent watchmakers, based here in Australia and overseas, including Monbrey, Venezianico, Bausele, and Melbourne Watch Company, all exhibiting expert craftsmanship alongside classic and luxury cars.

A significant highlight will see Fox Legacy Watch, crafted from a piece of Lindsay Fox’s original truck, head to a charity auction. It’s an ultra-rare timepiece with just three in existence. How good.

The event is also seeing a huge spike in interest from women, proving that motorsport and luxury watches aren’t just a boys’ club, but an inclusive and celebrated space for all with a passion for the automotive and haute horlogerie.

For those eager to attend, General Admission tickets are priced at $65, while VIP packages are available for $200, offering premium access and an elevated experience. Attendees are invited to wear their best watches and share their stories, with a luxury timepiece up for grabs for the most compelling entry.
