Stepping up in the same dial colour
Lorus sits under the Seiko umbrella, and the Z009 calibre here is made by Seiko Instruments — which means the digital module driving the chronograph, countdown timer, alarm and day-date is built to the same manufacturing standards as the group's own digital lines, not sourced from a generic supplier. That matters in a watch positioned squarely for active use. The tonneau resin case keeps weight low and resists knocks in a way metal cannot, and at 13mm it wears closer to the wrist than most sport digitals of this type. The curved acrylic crystal reinforces that profile while shrugging off the incidental impacts a watch like this is likely to encounter. At 100m the water resistance is genuine sport credibility — pool sessions and surface water are well within its limits. The EL backlight makes the grey digital display legible in the dark without requiring both hands free to operate it.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Yes. At 100m it is rated for swimming and snorkelling, though not for diving.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
Yes, but it polishes out. Acrylic marks easily and a scratch can be buffed away at home, which is why vintage-style watches still use it.
Sapphire, mineral and acrylic comparedDoes it need a battery?
Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
20mm. Any strap of that width will fit, and on most modern watches quick-release bars make the swap a two-minute job with no tools.
Is it a men's or women's watch?
Listed as men's, though at 40mm it sits in the range that suits anyone.
