Gents 9ct Gold Rotary Wrist Watch, 1968

Gents 9ct gold Rotary wrist watch, 1968.

The watch has a Swiss 17-jewel hand-winding movement, with the Rotary logo, which is working nicely.

The watch measures 31mm diameter excluding the winding crown and the lugs. The case is 9 carat gold and there are hallmarks inside the case back for London 1968 with an importer's mark of SD for Sylvain Dreyfuss.

Rotary Watches Ltd was established at La Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland by Moise Dreyfuss in 1895. By the 1920s family members Georges and Sylvain Dreyfuss were importing Rotary watches to Britain, which was to become the company's most successful market. 

The case is in good condition, just a 3mm line mark to the back.

The lens is in good condition.

The signed dial is in very good original finish with original hands, centre seconds hand and outer minute markers.

A new leather strap has been fitted.

The watch comes in a Rotary box from the original retailer, Watches of Switzerland.
