Lorus RT393KX9 Chronograph Bracelet Watch - W16347

Ref. RT393KX9

Among our 94 Lorus watchesThis watch£100
Premium

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.

The cushion case is the first thing worth remarking on — it sidesteps the standard sports-watch circle and gives this piece a stockier, more individual silhouette on the wrist than its dimensions alone suggest. Lorus sits within the Seiko group, and the VD53 movement is a Seiko-derived quartz calibre with a solid record in workhorse chronographs: accurate, reliable and straightforward to service. The green dial is fully treated with LumiBrite, so in low light the whole face glows rather than just the hands, which makes the chronograph subdials readable at a glance in dim conditions. On 120 grams of stainless steel bracelet, the watch has genuine heft — present without being heavy, and the folding clasp keeps it secure through the kind of use a 100m-rated sports watch implies.

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?

20mm. 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.
