FAQ
Q: What is the power source for this Rotary Cambridge chronograph?
A: This watch is powered by a precision quartz movement, which provides exceptional accuracy and requires battery replacement approximately every 2-3 years depending on usage. Our team at Cassims & Co. can assist with battery replacements as part of our after-sales service.
Q: Can I wear this watch while swimming or showering?
A: With 50 metres of water resistance, this watch can handle splashes, rain, and brief immersion such as washing hands. However, it is not suitable for swimming, showering, or water sports. We recommend avoiding hot water, soaps, and operating the chronograph pushers when the watch is wet.
Q: How do I operate the chronograph function?
A: The chronograph is operated via the pushers on the right side of the case. The top pusher starts and stops the timing function, whilst the bottom pusher resets the chronograph hands to zero. The sub-dials track elapsed time up to 12 hours, with intermediate readings shown on the 30-minute totalizer.
Q: Is the sapphire crystal scratch-resistant?
A: Yes, sapphire crystal is the second-hardest material after diamond, offering exceptional scratch resistance. It will protect your dial from everyday wear, though we still recommend avoiding impact with extremely hard surfaces or abrasive materials.
Q: Can the bracelet be adjusted to fit my wrist?
A: Absolutely. The stainless steel bracelet can be sized by removing or adding links to achieve the perfect fit. Visit us at our Johannesburg showrooms for complimentary professional sizing, or contact us for nationwide delivery with sizing instructions included.
Q: What warranty coverage does this Rotary watch include?
A: This timepiece carries a 2-year international Rotary warranty covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship when purchased from an authorised retailer such as Cassims & Co. The warranty does not cover normal wear, battery replacement, or damage from misuse.
Q: Is this watch suitable for formal occasions?
A: The Rotary Cambridge chronograph's versatile design makes it suitable for both business formal and smart casual occasions. The black dial and polished stainless steel case provide timeless elegance that pairs well with suits, whilst the chronograph functionality adds sporty appeal for weekend wear.

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 fully pushed in. Dry thoroughly afterwards
- Avoid operating the chronograph pushers or crown when the watch is wet or submerged
- Keep away from strong magnetic fields (speakers, mobile phones, magnetic clasps) which can affect timekeeping accuracy
- Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, chemicals, solvents, perfumes, and cosmetics which may damage seals or finish
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker when the watch stops or shows signs of low power. Do not leave a depleted battery inside the watch as it may leak and cause damage
- Even with 50m water resistance, avoid hot water, saunas, and steam rooms as temperature changes can compromise seals
- Store your watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not wearing it
- We recommend professional servicing every 3-4 years to maintain optimal performance and water resistance integrity
