Lorus
Lorus, a Seiko subsidiary, is home to numerous basic yet stunning timepieces and is one of the most budget-friendly brands on this list. Lorus, like Pulsar, was intended to serve the more fashion-forward youth with less money to spend on a watch. As a result, you'll find a variety of fairly modern styles, mostly with quartz movements. Despite their simplicity, many of these have water resistance ratings of 5bar or 10bar, and some even have a different construction.
They also have a number of different titanium watches that represent excellent value for a material that is generally reserved for considerably more expensive timepieces. Lorus has lately entered the mechanical space with the release of a few automatic watches that use automatic Seiko movements. One of their timepieces' flaws, as with many low-end watch brands, is the band. The standard straps and bracelets are understandably inexpensive, with the latter likely to pull hairs. However, these are easily replaced, making Lorus a go-to choice for individuals on a low budget.
