Watch Vortex 18943/3

The Watch

For over 40 years, Lotus has been crafting quality watches accessible to everyone. Built from premium materials and renowned for their precision, each model is designed to elevate your look at every occasion. The Vortex 18943/3 is no exception - a sharp urban edge for your everyday style. Its round case is crafted from brushed gray stainless steel for timeless appeal, measuring 44 mm in diameter and 13.40 mm in thickness, protected by a mineral crystal over the dial. The brushed gray bezel makes a statement with its exposed screws, adding a distinctive edge that won't go unnoticed. Functions are controlled by the knurled crown at 3 o'clock and two flanking pushers. The case back ensures 10 ATM water resistance.

The Dial

The dial of this striking watch makes an impression with its bold black background. Multi-layered and modern, its striped and matte finishes add a refined edge to your everyday look. The orange rehaut features a minute track marked with Arabic numerals at five-minute intervals. Twelve silver applied indices are tracked by skeletonized hands, each distinct in shape and function. The longest marks the minutes, the short hand the hours, and the orange seconds hand with a blue tip tracks the chronograph seconds. A white luminescent treatment ensures readability in low-light conditions. The two sub-dials at 6 and 12 o'clock display the small seconds and 60-minute counter respectively. At 3 o'clock, a date window keeps track of the current day. Lotus signs the dial at 9 o'clock.

The Movement

Powering this watch is a high-performance Japanese quartz movement - the Miyota 6S11 caliber, renowned for its precision and robustness. It reliably drives the hands, sub-dials, and date window, powered by a SR927SW battery.

The Strap

The strap amplifies this watch's sporty, streamlined look. In perfect harmony with the crown, its bold orange color adds undeniable charm. It sits comfortably on the wrist for all-day wear, pairs effortlessly with any outfit, and fastens easily with a pin buckle. The lug width is 21 mm.

Water Resistance

This model is rated to 10 atmospheres - 100 meters. That means it's genuinely water-resistant. From puddles to the pool, this timepiece is ready to dive in with you - no complaints. Shower, bath, and lap swimming? No problem. That said, our Ocarat watch experts note that while water-resistant, this model is not suited for professional or recreational diving and is sensitive to high-pressure cleaning equipment. We also recommend keeping the crown and pushers locked during submersion.
