Stepping up in Lorus's range
Lorus sits within the Seiko group as the marque tasked with delivering Japanese movement reliability in a more accessible shell, and the Classic collection is where that brief is most plainly stated. The PC32 calibre inside this one is a Seiko-built quartz that earns its keep through consistency rather than complexity — a battery that typically runs for around three years and timekeeping that needs nothing from its owner. At 42mm the case reads as a modern dress watch, though the 12.7mm depth keeps it firmly in territory rather than slim. The champagne dial with hairline finishing suits the all-gold PVD surround well, the two working together to catch warm light without demanding attention. The folding clasp includes a safety bar, which on a bracelet at this scale is a small but sensible addition.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
Water resistance explainedWill the glass scratch?
It can, over time. Mineral glass handles daily wear but will pick up fine scratches that sapphire would not.
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?
22mm. 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.
