Lorus RL445CX9 Automatic Burgundy Dial Bracelet Watch - W16355
Ref. RL445CX9
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 inside the Seiko group, and the Y676 that powers this watch comes directly from that stable — a self-winding movement that winds from the motion of the wrist and needs no battery to keep going. The exhibition caseback lets you watch it at work, the balance wheel oscillating at the centre of a fully mechanical train. The sunray-finished burgundy dial gives the watch a depth that shifts with the light, reading closer to wine in shadow and brightening toward violet at an angle. At 41mm across and 11.7mm through the case, it sits squarely on the wrist without reaching for the edges of the cuff — proportions that suit a dressed-up occasion but don't demand one.

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?
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?
No. It is automatic — the motion of your wrist winds it, and there is no cell to replace.
Quartz, automatic and solar comparedWhat size strap does it take?
24mm. 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.
