wrist check 2024
Discussion
It’s great what a new strap does for a watch.
I was bought this Rotary a few years ago by my much missed late Mother in Law. So it has great sentimental attachment. It needed a new battery, so I also treated it to this rather thick strap. It’s really lifted the watch. Given it a new lease of life as one of my wearing a suit watches.

First battery change. Easy enough, just needed some patience and a bit of technique for the ball. The 9F is stunning...apologies for crap pics!
