The Sports line from Lorus has always been direct about what it is: full-size chronograph function at a scale that reads clearly and wears with confidence. At 44mm the case fills the wrist as intended, yet 11.3mm of thickness keeps it from stacking under a cuff — genuinely restrained for a chronograph with sub-dials. The VD57 movement inside is a Seiko Instruments calibre, which means the timekeeping is Japanese quartz with around three years between battery changes and a split-time function that counts to 1/10th-second intervals across the sub-dial layout. Against the black dial, the gold plating on case and bracelet is deliberate contrast rather than background detail — a combination that the fixed tachymeter bezel, printed directly onto the outer ring, anchors toward the functional side of the dial.

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?

Yes. It is quartz, so expect a battery change every two to three years at a jeweller.

Quartz, automatic and solar compared

What 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.
