Sits in Roamer’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Roamer watches we list, which start at £129.

Price range £129 to £461 across 24 Roamer watches in stock.

The Optimus line sits at the dressier end of Roamer's catalogue — round, classical in proportion, designed to occupy the space between a sport watch and something you would wear with a jacket. This version earns its place in the range with a green sunray dial, where the surface shifts character depending on the angle of the light, and gold-tone applied indices with faceted Dauphine hands that read as considered rather than merely decorative. At 42mm across and 11.5mm thick, it wears closer to the wrist than most automatics at this diameter manage. The movement inside is the Soprod P024, a Swiss-made calibre that runs at 28,800 vibrations per hour and draws on the same architectural tradition as the ETA 2824-2 — well-regarded enough that Roamer backs the whole watch with a seven-year warranty against movement defects, which says something about their confidence in it. The two-tone finishing — polished and brushed surfaces alternating across the bezel and the centre links of the bracelet — keeps the dressy green dial grounded rather than letting it tip into occasion-only territory.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch

Can I swim with it?

Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.

Will the glass scratch?

Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.

Does it need a battery?

No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.

Is it a men's or women's watch?

Listed as men's.
