I've been successfully using Vittoria Ultralite 700c 19-23 tubes with a threaded Presta valve and a round locking collar for some time now. Whilst testing a new head for my track pump, I deflated both 25 mm tyres, did up the locking collar finger tight only and inflated both to the maximum recommended pressure as normal.
The net result was that both tubes were irreparably damaged, as the rubber round the valve base was torn and leaked air. At the risk of publicising my own stupidity, I advise readers not to tighten the little round collar when inflating from flat. Both tubes were not just punctured, they were ruined.
