Sits in Lorus’s upper tier here — more premium than three quarters of the Lorus watches we list, which start at £30.

Price range £30 to £160 across 94 Lorus watches in stock.

Lorus sits within the Seiko group, and the Y676 automatic that drives this watch comes from that same family of Japanese movement engineering — 21 jewels, a 41-hour reserve, and an exhibition caseback so the rotor is visible rather than hidden away. It is a straightforward mechanical proposition dressed in something less usual. The bottle-green sunray dial does most of the visual work: the colour shifts as the light moves across it, and the orange central seconds hand cuts against it cleanly. Baton indices keep the face uncluttered, and at 42mm the proportions read as sporting without being overwrought. The bracelet is a polished wrap-around link with a push-button deployant, which handles daily on and off without fuss.

Your new watch

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 explained

Will 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 compared

Does it need a battery?

No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

How long does it run for when it's not worn?

About 41 hours fully wound — enough to survive a night off the wrist, but not a full weekend.

What size strap does it take?

21mm. 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.
