The Rotary Vintage Museum

Since 1895, Rotary has been manufacturing stylish dress watches from both its Swiss and UK operations. As trends have changed over the years, so has the company.

We have decided to celebrate our heritage and mark the success by displaying a selection of Rotary Watches that date back to the early 1900s. Each piece is surrounded by history and the entire collection demonstrates the evolution of watch manufacturing throughout the last century.

This truly captivating collection offers an insight into the fashion of the 20s, 30s, 40s until the present day. From dramatic changes in case size and crown details to the earliest use of a jumping date movement, it is a wonderful insight into the history of watch manufacturing.
