Rotary Watches Ltd. was widely recognized by its logo, a “Winged Wheel”. This is a symbol often associated with the Ancient Greeks, specifically the Greek god Hermes. It was considered to be a symbol of movement & progress, two concepts that mirrored Rotary’s values.

Here we have a late 1960’s Rotary Aquaplunge Super Waterproof Diver Ref. 66.18.59 - Powered by a 21j automatic AS Cal. 1700/01. Among its notable features is a beautiful 12h/24h black dial laid out in perfect symmetry with the logo and other dial info. Earlier models may feature the “Rotomatic” designation (vs. Automatic), a 17j or 21j AS Cal. 1700/01, Broad Arrow Hands, and Radium and/or Tritium dials.

Aside from this Ref. 66.18.59, older References include Ref. 80.18.32 & Ref. 81.18.54.

2nd Tuesday in a row I’ve realized I’ve made the grievous error of thinking it is Monday instead of Tuesday coming off of a 3 day weekend.
Oh well.

Good day and happy New Year all. First day back at work after the holiday and wearing my Constellation 14393 with an original unrefinished black pie pan dial. Which reminds me that I’m still looking for an unrefinished black dial pie pan Constellation with arrowhead markers. Anybody have one that they would like to sell? 😀

Good morning Forum, Thankfully, so thankfully, Thing 1 and Thing 2, tested negative for Covid all weekend, were feeling well this morning, and we got them back to school. They’ll be psyched to be back with friends and peers after the Holiday. Still running with these guys; I’ll do a wrist check more often than warranted, and can’t believe how fortunate I am to be wearing these. Have a good day/nite OF.

Thank you, sir. And your Seamaster is very attractive as well.
