For the money they are pretty decent to be fair, the bracelet was half decent, but the clasp however was a letdown hence the Nato. The watch is comfortable with sapphire crystal and a ceramic bezel. There is lume but just like a vintage Datona it don't glow for long. They’ve also updated this watch to now having 100m water resistance, they are still selling the old one with around 30m, so check that before / if you pull the trigger on one. The movement is a Seiko VK63 Quartz and the price £67.67pThe Paganis look to be very decent quality, for the price
Nice Turtle TonyAbsolutely gutted yesterday as the strap snapped on my trusty Pro-Trek Tough Solar PRW - 5000 , it's my daily workhorse and has been on the wrist for about 11yr, been battered all over and never missed a beat.
Replaced with a Sieko PADI, always liked these, got it for a canny price with a local shops price match.

Love a Lorus - get it posted, sir!I was going to post a photo of my new Lorus, but I feel ashamed after seeing all this Big Spender stuff.
Don‘t be hiding like an ostrich, all watches are welcome.I was going to post a photo of my new Lorus, but I feel ashamed after seeing all this Big Spender stuff.
Looks like you've had your moneys worth out of that watch! I like watches with a bit of patina.Wearing the Seiko PADI Turtle today, however,
New strap arrived for the Pro-trek, i managed to remove and re-fit the shoulder covers to the new strap, its turned out pretty good, it was filthy behind there.
While over the Town i got a new Battery fitted in the 6000.

It had been on my wrist everyday for work for about 11yr, it will be back on the wrist Monday morning until i retire.Looks like you've had your moneys worth out of that watch! I like watches with a bit of patina.
I've got/had 2 of those. They're great. They only cost about 25-30 of Her Majesty's Beer Tokens, are super easy to read, even at night thanks to the lume face, and you can swim in them, fix the car, whatever you want to do, they'll just go with it. I had one that started to stick or run slow even with a new battery so I just bought another. A buddy of mine who knows about watches said the design is based on some military watch but I just liked the fact it was a simple, resilient good looking everyday beater.As I promised, my new Lorus (courtesy of a friend's aid in the UK as they don't sell this model in the New World for whatever reason). I just received and installed a new https://www.clockworksynergy.com/ khaki Perlon strap. Love the band and the watch!! Since I received this watch eight days ago and regulated it to atomic time it has neither lost nor gained one measly second!!! Plus, the second hand hits the indices to boot!! I am happier than a thug with a new gun!!
I'm another one with this watch. I bought it for work a few years ago, a fantastic watch for the price, I've got quite a physical job and it takes a bit of punishment, great time keeper and never had a problem with it.As I promised, my new Lorus (courtesy of a friend's aid in the UK as they don't sell this model in the New World for whatever reason).
