Stepping up in the same colour and case shape

Price range £30 to £160 across 107 Lorus watches in stock.

Lorus sits within the Seiko Watch Corporation, and the VD53 movement inside this watch reflects that parentage — a Japanese quartz calibre accurate to within twenty seconds per month, which is a tighter tolerance than the category tends to demand. The grey-blue sunray dial shifts noticeably as the light changes angle, giving the face more depth than a flat colour would. At 43mm across and 11.3mm thick, the case wears broadly but not heavily; the polished steel keeps it from reading as purely sporty. The black leather strap has white edge stitching that contrasts cleanly against the dark ground, and the pin buckle keeps the fit straightforward to adjust.

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.
