Stepping up in the same colour and case shape
A straightforward dual-time sports watch built around a black IP case and a combined analogue-digital dial — the kind of setup that suits travellers or anyone who needs a second time zone readable at a glance without fumbling through a complication. The white indicators keep the analogue chapter ring legible against the all-black dial, and the orange seconds hand gives an immediate visual fix on the running movement. At 44mm on a silicone strap with a simple buckle, it sits comfortably for active wear and is rated to handle swimming without hesitation.

Learn more about Sekonda
Sekonda was created in 1966, not as a manufacturer but as an export label. The Soviet state watch combine ChasProm needed a name under which to sell its output in the West, and Sekonda became that name — watches built at the First Moscow Watch Factory and the Petrodvorets Watch Factory in Leningrad, arriving in British shops as Sekonda rather than Poljot or Raketa.
That origin explains a curiosity of the vintage market: open a late-1960s Sekonda and you will often find a Poljot movement inside, stamped Made in USSR.
The quartz era changed the arrangement. Cheap, accurate Japanese movements undercut Soviet mechanical production, and after the breakup of the Soviet Union the brand cut its Russian ties entirely, moving manufacturing to Hong Kong in 1993.
What did not change was the position: reliable watches at prices most people do not have to think about. Sekonda had become the leading watch brand in the UK by 1988 and has stayed there, selling over a million watches a year, with Seksy, One and Xpose covering fashion and outdoor styles.
The brand is owned by Time Products, which also owns Accurist and Limit.
