Rotary RGB10074/24 Greenwich GT1 Automatic Bracelet Watch - W13318
Ref. RGB10074/24
Sits in Rotary’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Rotary watches we list, which start at £97.
Price range £97 to £329 across 195 Rotary watches in stock.The Greenwich collection has always leaned towards the dressy end of Rotary's range, so the GT1 is a deliberate departure — a motorsport brief applied to a line that had no obvious need for one. The multi-layer slatted green dial borrows its logic from grand tourer design, where louvred bodywork served airflow as much as it served appearance: the layers create genuine depth rather than a printed surface, and the partial skeletonisation lets the Miyota 8N24 show through in a way that reinforces the mechanical argument rather than merely decorating the caseback. At 12mm thick, the GT1 sits sensibly for what it is — a 42mm automatic with exhibition display — and the gold PVD bracelet reads as a coordinated choice rather than an afterthought, carrying the case colour through to the wrist rather than breaking the line. The Super-LumiNova hands sit high enough above the layered dial to be read cleanly, which matters on something this visually busy.

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.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
Unlikely. Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness and shrugs off everyday marking.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedIs it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's.
