Rotary GB02941/03 Greenwich Automatic Gold Tone Bracelet Watch - W13295
Ref. GB02941/03
Sits in Rotary’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Rotary watches we list, which start at £76.
Price range £76 to £299 across 181 Rotary watches in stock.The Greenwich line has long been Rotary's home for skeleton work, and this automatic sits squarely in that tradition — a full gold-tone dress watch built around the movement rather than despite it. The sunray outer ring carries Roman numerals in the conventional way, but at the centre there is no dial to speak of, just the mechanism itself turning in plain sight. At 42mm it reads boldly on the wrist, yet 11.4mm of thickness keeps it from sitting proud of the cuff in the way some skeleton pieces do. The seven-link bracelet and the gold PVD case hold the same warmth, so the watch reads as a single object rather than a case dropped onto a strap as an afterthought.

Learn more about Rotary
Moise Dreyfuss started Rotary in La Chaux-de-Fonds in 1895. Within a generation his sons Georges and Sylvain had opened a London office and begun exporting to Britain, which turned out to be the decision that defined the company: Britain became, and remains, Rotary's most important market.
The winged wheel logo arrived in 1925 and has barely changed since. It became familiar enough in British high streets that the brand is widely taken for British, despite the Swiss origin.
Rotary supplied watches to the British Army, and the wartime and post-war association gave it a foothold in a market where an affordable, dependable Swiss watch was exactly what most buyers wanted.
The family held the company for over a century, making it for a long time the oldest family-owned Swiss watchmaker still trading. Ownership passed to Hong Kong's Citychamp in 2014, and in February 2025 to the UK's Peers Hardy Group.
The modern range sits at the accessible end — quartz and automatic dress watches, divers and chronographs, with the Henley, Windsor and Legacy lines carrying the collection.

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.
Cheapest place to buy
