Sekonda VS Lorus 2 budget watches go head to head.... 

Great head to head. That Lumebrite dial is breathtaking!

In my own experience of owning Sekonda and Lorus watches I have found Lorus to be more accurate than any of my Sekonda watches.I really enjoy wearing field watches and have several in my collection from Lorus, Pulsar, Seiko and the Hamilton Khaki King. The Lorus field watch you have shown in this video is one of my favourite watches as well as the Lorus Titanium field watches which are really great value for money. I wear the Lorus Titanium field watches the most tbh because of them being so light and comfortable on the wrist that you hardly know you are wearing a watch. All have 100M water resistance except for my Hamilton Khaki King which is 50M. For really rugged wear I wear a Casio G-Shock 5610 which is another beast of a watch altogether with it having solar power and radio controlled and 200M water resistance. A good review though but the winner for me is the Lorus every time regarding these two watches.

If it is a choice... The Lorus as it is an amazing watch.

The Lorus is a lovely little watch, I like that Sekonda too though. You could include whether or not the seconds hand hits the markers in reviews. Enjoyed your video, thanks, all the best

Years ago, I had a cheap Lorus field watch. I'd wear it on my belt loop to stop the sun burn marks on my arms. As a result, it went through the washer and dryer about 30 times before the glass broke. Even after that, it went through another 20 or 30 times and finally gave up. Amazing build quality for such a cheap watch. Everyone talk about the Hamilton Khaki Field watches, you could have scores more of these, and they'd let you down far less.

Just brought the black dial with silver case and black pvd sekonda and suprised how good, however I have the Lorus and its epic ❤

For that price i would buy the two, love military watches. Just found this channel and i like it. Subscribed. If you don't like the bracelet, loads of really great Nato straps out there. Totally agree with your review though been looking at the lorus for some time, Seiko movement swings it. But.........

As a brand I think Sekonda are first class. Been buying them for years and they go on and on.

Both do look good. I would probably pick the Winner too.

Yup! I would say the lorus is the winner for me too! The 100m WR and lume is what sold me from the starting specs listed. I gotta say I do prefer that knurled crown and vintage dial color of the Sekonda. 😎🙌

Great head to head and Sekonda has a very rich history, but yeah just a cheap high street brand, which is a shame but hey if it pays the bills. But that is not saying they have some nicely designed watches out there, one of my earlier watches I loved was a Sekonda. I'd take the Lorus but do prefer the size of the Sekonda, a very good head to head and nice to see something different mate nice job

I have the Lorus it fits my 6 1/2” wrist perfectly. I love the lume and the fact that it has a Seiko movement says it all. Mine loses 1 sec. per month, which is remarkable for a watch at this price.

I like watches regardless of price and Lorus offer soooo much value at the price. They also have a huge range to choose from. Always have one in my drawer ready for action.....well you know what I mean ;)

I own and like both watches. The sekonda looks great but the crown overhangs the guard quite a lot and is very sharp. Sadly ive stopped wearing the sekonda.

I have both of these, the Lorus is more accurate, has survived two accidental 40 degree cycles thru the washing machine and is more compact on the wrist when worn with motorcycle jacket and gloves. The Sekonda is easier to set, feels lighter in weight and the glass is recessed below the case, two years of use, no scratches on the glass.

I've got the Lorus, which I really like. I also like the looks of the Sekonda. Might have to give it a try.

Good Offering from Sekonda i cannot deny that and cant comment on the piece as do not have one but i do have the Lorus n wow this Piece is a LEGEND !!! Ive 3 lume dial pieces and me lorus is the brightest... The spec it offers for its price point is just a no brainer... Saying that the crown on the sekonda looks awesome ..Good comparison of two budget field/pilot watches..Great review my friend.

Fantastic! Great categories, I am hoping to do my San Martin v pagani soon and answer the question I attempted in my first video although this time both watches homage the same. The winner is obvious but the question still remains is San Martin worth 300 bucks more……this has helped me to know what cats to use, and I agree with your assessment. With your shrek hands must have taken hours to set the day date on the Lorus 😆😆👍😆👍

I've got them both, personally I prefer the Sekonda. It fits well on my wrist, looks good, decent build quality apart from the strap (just change it asap) and it's one of my favourite watches of all I own. (I own a good fair few that are many multiple times it's price) The Loris is ok, but too small, too cluttered and only comes into its own in the dark.

One of my daughters has the Lorus whose lume is amazing, but the watch is too small to be read at a glance and its dial is cluttered. The Sekonda's after-sales / customer service is excellent, its dial clean and easy to read because it's larger. Accuracy of both watches is similar. I prefer the Sekonda for its lovely crown, although its latest nylon strap is appalling. Sekonda also is a British watch company no longer Russian. Off-topic somewhat, the Lorus green dial 7S26 automatic actually is a rebranded Seiko 5. Nice enjoyable video.

Brilliant head to head mate. For me the Lorus takes it, just seems better in nearly every way and it's the perfect size for me too, so win win.

Nice review. My only issues with the Sekonda are the name (sounds like a fictional country in Africa) and size. I can live with the name but the size makes this a no. Maybe if I had a bigger wrist…

Great review mate. Really you would wear either but I do agree on the Loris as the winner that lume is just brilliant. Thanks Adrian

I’ve got the Lorus nice size for my small wrist strap is cheap but wear it on a Barton I’m going to keep my eye out for the sekonda

i had this exact lorus sports (lumibrite) and its the most accurate watch ive had apart from the date. the time is always within the minute, even after 3 years

Nice comparison mate , I had the lorus feild watch but found it a tad bit small , thus hard to see , as feild watches are supposed to easy to see at a glance had the sekonda now the black version definitely easier to see lume not too important to me . At the end of the day get what you want and suits you.

Very good head to head bro and I think the right watch won. Nice one 👍👍

Just added the lorus to my collection those morning. £25. Bargain! Bit of a faff setting time and date, but I'm enjoying it. Dunno if it'll replace my smart watch though. Jury is out

The Sekonda looks better to my eyes, and the size is much better. Shame it is so cheaply made. Don't care for the look of the dial on the Lorus, probably looks like that for the lume. Too much writing on the dial as well, plus way too small unfortunately. Great video, thanks

У меня есть Sekonda такая же как на видео только с чёрным циферблатом. Покупал в Европе и уверен что они были сделаны для европейского потребителя. Качество материла корпуса и сборка великолепны. Часы очень мне нравятся. Периодически одеваю их и ношу, так как ещё не наигрался со смарт часами. Но все равно предпочтение отдаю таким часам как Sekonda пилотной серии. Если где то в Европе мне встретятся часы Sekonda только в другом форм-факторе которые видел в каталоге например в бронзовом корпусе обязательно куплю и пополню коллекцию. Спасибо за обзор.

Love these head to head battles! ⌚⌚

I had the Sekonda and after a while the chrome finish started to bubble and turned green, obviously not stainless steel!

Anyone who makes a 42mm field watch does not really understand the purpose of a field watch. A field watch is designed to slip under a field jacket and field shirt sleeve and should not be more than 38mm.

They aren't Pilot watches since they lack the correct design elements eg: 1. Large legible dial 2. At least a 39 mm size, most are 43mm plus 3. Calculation markings (are not necessary anymore)

Thanks for the comparison

Cracking review

Lorus is more reliable then a Sekonda. Hands down on that.

The fact lorus sits under the Seiko brand and uses their movements trumps everything for me to be honest. Sekonda are generally just junk

👍👍👍👍👍

Lorus is a Seiko in disguise. Enough said.

Packaging!, who gives a rats ass!!…it’ll be in the bin within 24 hours!…..at the end of the day, it’s about practicality, fit for purpose….enough of your waffle mate…….
