textDisplay: Outstanding, excellent Watch and I personally consider laudable and positive that the series incorporated such model with it's price range, but taking into consideration the history of the Rotary company in England, with which I was unfamiliar before researching it prompted by this particular model, and the series off course. If anyone cares for a quite accurately resembling watch but automatic and therefore more expensive, look for the Raymond Weil's Maestro Small Second. Thank you for the Video by the way. Best regards

textDisplay: The music was spot on   ,the watch is good value  looks pretty good  and rotary is overlooked as a  very special company .

textDisplay: I have one question though, when I google image this watch model, you get two slightly different watches. One with the bottom of the sub second touching the roman numeral as well as Est. 1895 under the word Rotary and the other with the top of the sub second touching where the two hands meet as well as Est. 1895 underneath the VI (the one I received).<br>If its the same model, why is there such a tiny difference and is this normal?

textDisplay:
ahhh, thank you!
I am not even a Sherlock fan, never even watched the show,  I just love the watch. When I received mine, I was a bit worried because I thought I got a fake watch, but obviously its just a new design.
For me, it isn't a big deal, obviously for others its going to be.

textDisplay:
Okay I've done some research and what I said was wrong. The first model was the one with the Est. 1895 under the Rotary logo. The one you bought with the Est. 1895 on the bottom of the dial and a raised sub dial is actually a brand new version of the model that Rotary has just released. Which actually makes me quite upset because they have it under the same name and model as the genuine model seen on Sherlock and will make people buy the wrong watch. So something to look after when buying this watch is always check if the model has the correct placement of the sub dial and the Est. 1895 text.

I'm sorry for any inconvenience.

textDisplay: Yes there is an explanation for that. It's not as it's a different model, it's just that they are the very first models of this watch, which didn't have the Est. 1895 under the Rotary logo, but rather on the bottom of the dial and as you said with a slightly raised sub dial. This, however was not worn by Benedict on Sherlock. You can clearly see in one of the scenes that the one worn in Sherlock has the small lettering Est. 1895 under the Rotary logo itself. This was a reissue of the model which was used on Sherlock. So if you acquired a watch with the Est. 1895 in the bottom of the dial I'm afraid it's not the screen accurate one. Of course it's merely a minor detail but if you really want the most screen accurate I would suggest sending back the watch is possible.


textDisplay: thanks man for the video, i just received the watch 2day and its perfect :) ...thanks to ur video and tips

textDisplay: Has anyone experienced problems adjusting the time and turning the crown?

textDisplay: The show probably got Rotary as a sponsor now cause he's still wearing it on the last season, while John keeps switching.<br>It's funny cause when John is stalking about finding a flat and not having money to pay the bills he's wearing a TAG Heuer worth 6000 pounds.

textDisplay: The leather seems to be different in the original one and the new version. is that true ?


textDisplay: Beautiful, but it’s not a automatic piece. 😣

textDisplay: Which one do you think is the better of the two watches in your opinion; the rotary Monaco black dial rose case or the Sherlock watch? Thanks!

authorDisplayName: Ali Baig

textDisplay:
Well that really depends on your style. The Rotary Monaco is still very classic looking with the rose case, yet a bit sporty with the chronograph. However if I were to choose I personally wouldn't spend the amount of money on the Monaco, probably wouldn't on the Sherlock watch either if it wasn't used on Sherlock.

So to clarify, depends what style/event/lifestyle you have. Both of the watches are quite dressy so if you prefer the all dress watch go with the Sherlock watch, however if you want to have a more sporty look go with the Rotary Monaco.


textDisplay:
May I ask whether it still works?

I'm looking to buy one but found many bad reviews about Rotary.
Hope to get your reply soon.

textDisplay: @PCJPguy Thanks

textOriginal: @PCJPguy Thanks

textDisplay: Hello! Yes the watch is still fully operational. I've had the battery changed 3 times with no problems at all. Hope I could help

textDisplay: Someone told me that the leather band looks cheap in this model specifically, is that true?

textDisplay: Thanks man.. thats really helpful :)

textOriginal: Thanks man.. thats really helpful :)

parentId: UgjcgyPpByLwJXgCoAEC

textDisplay: Well at first it feels pretty stiff and hard but it softens up when you wear it. You could change the band of course, but it looks a bit cooler with the Rotary logo on the buckle and the leather.

textDisplay: when you say looks better after a while do you mean better as ok to wear or better as if you wish you'd change the band? thanks for the tips though really appreciate it.

textDisplay: Well even though it's genuine leather, when you first get it, it feels kind of hard and platic-y. But after you wear it for a couple of days it starts to loosen up and looks better.


textDisplay: Why the #4 is IIII and not IV? I have noticed the same thing in other watches.Does anyone know the reason?

authorDisplayName: Pedro LE

textDisplay: Rasmus_Rolex thank you sir, great explanation

textDisplay: Because watchmakers find it more pleasing for the eye. I, II. III & IIII.

textDisplay:
The use of IIII rather than IV is known as the clockmaker’s four, and no single, definitive reason for its use can be found. One thing is certain: it is far from being a recent convention. The notation IIII was used by the Ancient Egyptians, the Greeks, and later the Etruscans, from whom the Romans adopted it.

In fact, it was not until the late Middle Ages that IV came into use – and when the first mechanical clocks were made, between the 13th and early 14th century, IIII was still in common use. The fact that it remains so today is often thought to be due to the wonderful balance it brings to the dial. After all, should modernity ever be allowed to interfere with perfection?


textDisplay: What do you think Is this model better or the golden (ROTARY GENTS VINTAGE ROSE GOLD GS02427-21)...thx for the video btw

textDisplay: I think u r right ...have u seen this Cartier http://www.cartier.co.uk/collections/watches/womens-watches/ballon-bleu-de-cartier/w6920085-ballon-bleu-de-cartier-watch-33-mm

textDisplay: Well I actually like gold watches, Right now I'm wearing a vintage Omega Seamaster in gold. But in this model I think it looks better in stainless steel.

authorDisplayName: Seth Marsden

textDisplay: @Prof. George C. Grasser Totally, nice, FC brings so much value its almost ridiculous

authorDisplayName: Fredrik

textDisplay: @Fredrik Yes. Rotary can do it and in Swiss Made. It would appear that they just don't think. They produce something so close to a Breguet and RUIN it by making it Quartz. They don't even think to leave the Ticking Small Seconds off the dial to make it not scream Quartz. I bet the design team got a raise in pay too.   Two years ago I chose the Frederique Constant Automatic FC-306MC4S36. I did a video of it.

authorDisplayName: Prof. George C. Grasser

textDisplay: For this price its still a steal, however, if they did a mechanical version of this I'd easily pay three times more or even more for it.

textDisplay: +MrPleers check out the 'sea gull 819.368' it looks similar

authorDisplayName: Yasir Kadhim

textDisplay: Seth Marsden I agree. That style really cries out for a manual or automatic with an exhibition back maybe even an exhibition front with only the chapter ring being solid.

authorDisplayName: Shannmeister

textDisplay: +Seth Marsden I was thinking the same thing. If it was a mechanical one, it would be the perfect watch for me.
