Stepping up in Sekonda's range
A straightforward stainless steel bracelet watch built around a day-date display and a sunray grey dial that shifts in angled light in the way only that finishing can produce. At 39mm it sits at a comfortable mid-size for everyday use, and the silver baton indices keep the dial legible without fuss. The bracelet offers plenty of adjustment points, which makes finding the right fit easy enough, though the folded links and hollow end links are typical of this price tier and the clasp takes a little practice to operate cleanly. The watch is light on the wrist, and the day-date complication earns its place as the reason most owners will reach for this over something simpler.

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.

Frequently asked questions, and things you should know about this watch
Can I swim with it?
Showering yes, swimming no. 50m covers splashes and brief immersion, but a swimming stroke generates well above the pressure that figure describes.
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.

F.Hinds is the only UK retailer we track stocking this reference, so there is nothing to compare it against today.
