The Rotary Henley GS05083/06 is a refined chronograph timepiece that exemplifies accessible Swiss-founded design excellence. Housed in a polished 42mm stainless steel case with a stepped bezel profile, this quartz chronograph presents a pristine white dial punctuated by rose gold-toned applied indices and pencil hands. The chronograph sub-dials—60-second, 60-minute, and 24-hour counters—are complemented by a date aperture at 6 o'clock, while the distinctive blue chronograph hands add a subtle yet striking contrast to the classical aesthetic.
Powered by a Miyota quartz chronograph movement, the Henley delivers dependable timekeeping with the added functionality of precise elapsed time measurement. The brown embossed leather strap, styled with an alligator grain texture, is fitted with a traditional tang buckle and complements the dial's warm rose gold accents. At Cassims & Co., we are proud to offer this distinguished model from the heritage-rich Rotary collection, established in 1895.
This watch balances dress-watch elegance with sporting capability, making it equally suited to boardroom presentations and weekend pursuits. The polished stainless steel case is water-resistant to 50 metres, offering protection against splashes and brief immersion. Whether you're timing a presentation or simply appreciating the mechanical artistry of a well-engineered chronograph, the Henley GS05083/06 delivers both form and function.

FAQ
Q: Is this watch automatic or battery-powered?
A: The Rotary Henley GS05083/06 is powered by a Miyota quartz chronograph movement, which is battery-operated. This provides exceptional accuracy and eliminates the need for daily winding, with typical battery life of 2-3 years under normal use.
Q: What do the sub-dials on this chronograph display?
A: The three chronograph sub-dials measure elapsed time: the sub-dial at 9 o'clock tracks seconds up to 60, the sub-dial at 6 o'clock measures minutes up to 60, and the sub-dial at 3 o'clock displays a 24-hour counter. The date window is positioned within the 6 o'clock sub-dial.
Q: Can I wear this watch while swimming or showering?
A: With 50 metres of water resistance, this watch can withstand splashes, rain, and brief immersion, making it suitable for handwashing and light water exposure. However, we do not recommend swimming, showering, or operating the chronograph pushers when the watch is wet, as this may compromise the seals.
Q: Is the leather strap replaceable if it wears out?
A: Yes, the 20mm leather strap can be replaced. We stock a selection of quality replacement straps at our Mall of the South boutique, and our team can fit a new strap for you while you wait. Leather straps typically require replacement every 1-2 years depending on wear patterns.
Q: What is the lug-to-lug measurement of this watch?
A: While the case diameter is 42mm, the exact lug-to-lug measurement is not specified in official documentation. We recommend visiting our boutique to try the watch on and assess the fit on your wrist, as our team can provide precise measurements and styling guidance.
Q: Does this watch come with the original Rotary box and papers?
A: Yes, the Rotary Henley GS05083/06 is supplied with the official Rotary presentation box, instruction manual, and international warranty card. As an authorised Rotary retailer, all our watches come with complete manufacturer packaging and documentation.
Q: How often does the battery need to be replaced?
A: Under normal operating conditions, the quartz battery typically lasts 2-3 years. We offer battery replacement services at our Mall of the South location, and our technicians use only quality replacement cells to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Care Guide
- Wipe the stainless steel case and crystal regularly with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove fingerprints, dust, and moisture.
- Avoid exposing the watch to extreme temperatures, strong magnetic fields, or harsh chemicals, including perfumes, solvents, and cleaning agents.
- Do not operate the chronograph pushers or pull out the crown when the watch is wet or submerged, as this may allow water ingress.
- The leather strap should be kept dry whenever possible. Excessive moisture exposure will accelerate wear and may cause discolouration or cracking.
- Remove the watch before engaging in high-impact sports, heavy manual work, or activities that may subject it to shock or vibration.
- Have the battery replaced by a qualified watchmaker when the watch stops or the seconds hand begins jumping in multi-second intervals, which indicates low battery voltage.
- Store the watch in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not being worn. The original Rotary box provides ideal protection.
- We recommend a professional service every 3-5 years to check seals, lubricate moving parts, and verify water resistance integrity.
- If the watch requires servicing or repairs, visit our Mall of the South boutique where our experienced team can assess the timepiece and arrange factory-authorised service if needed.
