FAQ
Q: Is the Rotary Avenger Sport suitable for swimming?
A: With 5 ATM (50 metres) water resistance, this watch is suitable for everyday splashes, hand washing, and light rain. It is not recommended for swimming, showering, or water sports, as these activities can exceed the pressure rating and compromise the seals.
Q: How often does the battery need replacing?
A: A standard quartz battery typically lasts 2-3 years depending on usage. When replacement is needed, bring your watch to our Mall of the South boutique where our experts will fit a genuine battery and test the water resistance seals.

A: Yes, the stainless steel bracelet can be professionally adjusted by removing or adding links. Complimentary sizing is available at our Johannesburg boutique with your purchase, and our team can assist with future adjustments as needed.
Q: What is the case size, and will it suit smaller wrists?
A: At 38mm diameter and 10mm thick, the Avenger Sport is a versatile mid-size watch that suits wrist sizes from approximately 15cm to 20cm. The cushion case shape wears slightly larger than a round 38mm case, offering good presence without being oversized.

Q: Does the dial have luminous markers for low-light visibility?
A: Yes, the hands and hour markers feature luminous material that charges in natural or artificial light, providing enhanced legibility in low-light conditions for several hours after exposure.

Care Guide
- Wipe the case and bracelet regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, perspiration, and daily residue.
- For deeper cleaning of the stainless steel bracelet, use lukewarm water with mild soap and a soft brush, ensuring the crown is pushed fully in. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals including perfumes, solvents, and cleaning agents.
- Do not operate the crown or pushers when the watch is wet, as moisture may enter the case and damage the movement.
- If the watch has been exposed to saltwater, rinse with fresh water and dry immediately to prevent corrosion of seals and finishes.
- Store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not being worn. A watch box or pouch will protect it from dust and scratches.
- Have the battery replaced promptly when the watch stops to prevent potential leakage that could damage the movement.
- We recommend a professional service every 3-4 years to maintain optimal performance, including gasket replacement and water resistance testing.
- Avoid impact or dropping the watch, as shock can affect timekeeping accuracy and damage the movement or crystal.
