  1. Abstract Gyrochronology is the empirical relation between rotation and age. NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), Kepler, and K2 missions have observed thousands of wide main sequence binaries. Since components of a binary are coeval, their rotation periods should be consistent with gyrochronology models. However, the usefulness of gyrochronology depends upon reliable rotation periods. We explore the reliability of rotation period determinations for a sample of wide binary components from the TESS cycle 3. Wide binaries with the most reliable rotation period determinations provide a strong basis for testing whether the gyrochronology empirical relation derived from open clusters is also valid for field stars.
