Product Information

Full details

The Rotary Seamatic 100 is designed for individuals seeking a reliable and refined everyday automatic watch. Its key benefit lies in its balanced versatility and robust build, offering a touch of class without compromising on practicality. A potential caveat for some may be the 40mm case size, which, while balanced, might be perceived as smaller by those accustomed to larger watch faces. This timepiece features a 40mm gold PVD stainless steel case, a clean sunray white dial with Super-Luminova accents for low-light visibility, and durable sapphire glass. It is powered by a Japanese Miyota 8215 automatic movement, boasts 100m water resistance with a screw-down crown, and includes a refined brown leather strap.

Troubleshooting

Watch has stopped running.

Ensure the watch has been wound sufficiently. If worn daily, try shaking it gently for 30 seconds. If the issue persists, the power reserve may be depleted, and it might need manual winding or continuous wear.

Watch is losing or gaining excessive time.

Minor variations are normal for automatic movements. If significant timekeeping issues arise, it may require a service. Avoid exposing the watch to strong magnetic fields, which can affect accuracy.

Water ingress detected.

If you suspect water has entered the watch, do not operate the crown. Dry the exterior immediately and take it to a qualified watchmaker for inspection and repair as soon as possible to prevent further damage.

Strap is uncomfortable or damaged.

The brown leather strap can be replaced with any standard 20mm watch strap. Consider alternatives like nylon or rubber for more active use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To start using your automatic Seamatic 100, it needs to be wound. Gently shake the watch side-to-side for about 30 seconds, or manually wind it by turning the crown clockwise while it is in the closed position (pushed in). The watch will then start running. It is recommended to wear the watch for at least 8-10 hours a day for it to maintain its power reserve.

Compatibility:

This watch uses a standard spring bar system for its leather strap, meaning it can be easily interchanged with other 20mm leather, fabric, or rubber straps if desired.

Care:

Cleaning: Wipe the case and sapphire crystal with a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
Water Resistance: While rated for 100m, it's advisable to rinse the watch with fresh water and dry it thoroughly after exposure to salt water or chlorinated water. Ensure the crown is screwed down before exposure to water.
Strap Care: For the leather strap, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and direct sunlight, which can cause fading or damage. Condition the leather periodically if needed.
Servicing: Automatic watches benefit from professional servicing every 3-5 years to ensure optimal performance and longevity of the movement.
