:tuba: I own a Wessex chicago presence tuba and was trying to locate the serial # on the instrument. Does anyone know where to find it?

I don't personally know about Wessex instruments, but many piston horns have it on the second valve casing.

Most probably on the 2nd valve casing, but really low on the player's side; can be hard to see because of the 5th valve tubing.
