That was a brave decision based on that photo 馃榿
That's why I am surprised when it arrived, the case is still pretty sharp and finishing is still there.

Seller didn't provide photos of movement, till I've opened the "mystery box" myself. I am amazed how clean it is, no corrosion etc.

A gorgeous watch. A quick Google pulled this up. Tempted myself.
Bought a few amazing pieces this month, im pretty dried up. So, less desirable pieces have to go. Lol

Bought this today one in a growing list of Lorus Fusion chronographs.
Lorus is certainly on the cheaper end of watches I collect but there is a charm to them and the Fusions are a cut above most run of the mill Lorus watches in terms of quality and build.

In the days before I discovered vintage watches, I wore Lorus and they never let me down.

Previous owner preferred this dial on the watch



It did however come with its original dial

Bauhaus would be even more simple and clean. My watch has a lot going on, even though first impression is "clean & simple". Even the indices are decorated with grooves.



This is considered Bauhaus:
