Picked this up from Rubicon for 70 pounds delivered to Australia. It’s a recent (2023 I believe) rebrand of a Pulsar watch which was produced as part of a now longish line of production issues of the original Gen 1 & 2 Pulsar pilot chronographs that were produced under military contract. Pulsar also made field watches for the military on and off. This Lorus essentially has the dial and movement of the Pulsar Gen 1. The case is different and the original had a sloped rehaut for the minute track. The Pulsar branded watches are hard to find and much more expensive now. For the Gen 2 they changed to a central chronograph hand and running seconds on the 6 o’clock sun dial (as you find on most modern chronographs).
I have it too, they are both absolutely amazing value and both real classics, did you also know this one comes in full lume dial too, I'm not sure what country you are in but here in the UK you can buy it from Argos
Looks great with the "bond" style NATO, as do most watches in this style. It's a great looking watch and you can't go wrong with Lorus for the money you pay, definitely picking this one up. Great review! Subscribed.
@Alwaysontime-dh1gz I actually bought the same watch 2 months ago and thought mine was defective. But it seems they all do that? It's a nice looking watch but I'm honestly disappointed with its refinement. Also, the illumination on my watch is very poor and short lasting.
I'm actually surprised, I think for the price it's brilliant in finish and function, I guess we all have different standards, thank you so much for your message and happy new year 🎊

Hey thank you so much for your information, it's cool to share these things, I got mine at Amazon but came from Rubicon , excellent watch ⌚
Thanks
This watch is a remake of the old pulsar, great watch for the little money theyre asking .cheers
Thank you for your comment very much appreciated 👍
What a gem. I stumbled across it earlier and was stunned.
Great watch ⌚
Just picked up one of these from cash converters for 35 quid brand new. I'm absolutely delighted with it
Such a good quality watch, really love mine
I love Lorus watches and this one looks very nice
Such good value for money 💰
@@Alwaysontime-dh1gz I can't wait to have it on my wrist 😃
I've got the little Lorus steel Lumibrite and it is possibly my most favourite watch ever, and that's why I'm looking at this.

The more I see this watch, the more I like it 😀
@@twsbibanghorn7343 It's a stunning watch and I happen to have put it on eBay for sale
@@Alwaysontime-dh1gz What's your eBay store called?
Bronson wore this watch in The November Man , though think it is a smaller case size. Excellent review.
@@JimGlasgow-e5o Thanks for your kind words, pretty cool about Bronson

Hi Nick,
Look's Great!
On Bond Nato, is really Nice, with the grey is Military Style. I Like it a Lot.
Greetings Mario.
Hey thank you Mario! Really cheap watch and great value 😁
Nice watch, thanks for the video and thanks Argos Uk...👍🏻
Great stuff 👍
Just ordered one. Bargain at £60... Great review 👍👌
Thank you 🙏
Great looking watch for an incredible price 👍👍
Thanks, it's amazing value 😊
Have you noticed that your 1/10 aecond dial doesnt make a full circle in a second? It's off, takes more like 1.5 sec to spin it fully.
@@floatingchimney Well spotted

I like that the second hand acts like a second hand. Most of the other chronos second hands only move in chrono mode
@@twsbibanghorn7343 Yes I agree 👍
If I would like to change, could I put a steel strap on this watch?
Of course
Hi Nick,
the second hand hits the indices`?
Greetings Mario
people are selling the pulsar versions with the VD57 movement for silly money. its exactly the same watch lol.
Yes , I have seen this, they are gaining cult status, I can understand why but they are simple watches only worth simple money 💰
Hi Nick,
I'm thinking about buying one.
😊
Really good value for money 💰
What is the lume like on this watch?
Excellent
Is it just the hands ?
Hands and indices
1:40 Model RM - RegiMental?
@@twsbibanghorn7343 Not really sure to be honest
No
That looks tidy. I will investigate it👍
It really is a good quality watch
