How do I actually get it started? Can change the time but the second hand doesn't go around
Hi there, thanks for your feedback - it sounds like the plastic battery guard needs to be removed from underneath the crown. If this doesn't get it going, please get in touch with our customer service team.

Like some of the other reviews I bought this watch on a flight. I liked the traditional look of the watch and functionality and thought it would look good when dressed smart. Personally I like the strap size without too much excess when worn, I’ve also looked at the other straps available. I completed the form for the extra guarantee easy process from a QR code.
Very happy with the watch so far and I’ve already had some compliments.
I’ve looked at the slide rule blog and trying to learn the process :-)
Hi Rick, we're so glad to hear you're happy with your Rotary Pilot Chronograph! It's great that you're exploring the slide rule functionality, lots to learn there! Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.
Love the watch that I bought on airlingus yesterday but when opened discovered it had no instructions! Are they available online?

Seen it advertised in an in-flight magazine on an aer lingus flight while going on holidays. I made a promise to myself that I would get it on my return journey. I was shocked at the price on the high street so purchasing on board with a great discount was a no brainer. A lovely watch.
Thank you Alan, we're so happy to hear you love your Rotary Pilot Chronograph and that you found it at such a great price. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!
I got the watch on a flight at a good discounted price then got a further 25% off , i love the watch it sits nicely on my wrist do not had any complaints about the strap but I do have small wrists..
Thank you Wayne, we are so glad to hear it!
Rotary Pilot Chronograph watch.
Purchased this watch about 20 years ago, it's been sat in the back of my drawer for about 17 years untouched!!! Had a new battery fitted 2 weeks ago and looks and runs like brand new. Very happy
Thanks for the review Dennis - we are glad its still going strong!
Great watch, brought on flight ,good price and an extra year warranty when registered online (3 years).
Has a large face dial and brown leather strap.
All in all very reliable and a watch that stands out. Also waterproof to 50 metres.
Thank you Chelsea, we are so glad that you are happy with your new watch!
Very nice watch, I too got mine on a flight but as the other reviews have stated the strap is very small
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We will pass the feedback onto our design team
Been looking for just type of watch for some months but all were way out of my budget. Saw this on an EI flight and was in luck, they had it onboard. Absolutely delighted with it. It’s stylish, classic, elegant and comfortable to wear. I love that it is British, well actually made in China, but what isn’t these days. I haven’t a clue how it works yet but I’ll figure it out. Instructions in the box would be useful, but doesn’t take away from how happy I am with it. I’ve guaranteed it. If it lasts me 3 years it’ll be longer than any of the fitbits I’ve gone through. Well done Rotary!
Really like the watch but the strap is too short. Didn't realise until I bought on a Jet2 flight. Yes I should have tried it on. Have ordered another strap from another company similar but liked the strap on the watch as well as the watch itself.
A very high-quality, beautiful watch that rivals major luxury brands at a reasonable price. A great find for me.
Lovely watch, but would love instructions on how to use tacho. Tried downloaded it from Rotary, page not found. Stopwatch second hand was not align to top. How do you line it up . Pressed bottom button but goes to 55 seconds
Great looking watch but strap is very short, would be nice if they offered a longer strap 🤔
Hi there, thank you for your feedback! We're glad you like the watch and appreciate your suggestion about the strap length. We'll pass this along to our team for consideration. Enjoy your watch!
Just purchased this watch last month and very happy with it if I had one aspect of the watch is it does not have a luminous dial other wise a lovely watch.

Love its look and how it feels. Strap a little short and no handbook on use. Otherwise great value for the price on a Jet2 flight…..
Hi Stuart, we're glad you love the look and feel of the Rotary Pilot Chronograph! Thanks for your feedback about the strap length and the manual - we'll pass that along. Enjoy your new watch!
Love the watch. But do you do longer wrist strap at all. I am on the first hole on the strap so l have no wriggle room.

Spotted this on a Jet2 flight got myself one. So impressed with product that on a flight from Ibiza bought one for my 29 yr old son and I purchased another last night on flight back from Gran Canaria for my youngest (26) son. Everytime I wear mine ppl ask about it. Both sons comment on it & I can't wait to see their faces on Christmas Day 2026... Cheers, Rotary & Jet2.
Hi Nik, this is lovely to hear, we are so glad that you are happy with your Pilot Chronograph. We hope your sons enjoy theirs!
a bit upset when a friend told it was 1/2 price on a tui flight, i feel ripped off. spoiled the purchase
Hi Peter, we’re sorry to hear that seeing the watch at a lower price elsewhere has affected your enjoyment of your purchase. TUI sets its own independent retail pricing and may offer channel-specific promotions, so its prices can differ significantly from those available on our website. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.

Very nice style watch looks great & nice to wear
Hi Mark, we're so glad to hear you love the style of your Rotary Pilot Chronograph! Thanks for sharing your positive experience.
Hi Rotary, I have I am having a problem with the watch not working as the person states on the 27th June. I got the watch from a Jet2 flight on the 23rd June 2026. I have removed the stopper, and it just will not start. I am home today before going away for 2 weeks. I would welcome any feedback please?
Great watch, looks quality when wearing with a suit.
Only downside is the strap is to short for my liking.
Better than Breitling, well done.
However, why is it no longer available in blue?
Hi Robert, we're thrilled to hear you prefer the Rotary Pilot Chronograph! We will pass your feedback onto the design team
