Just arrived.....Lotus

[simone]

Arrived today....anonymous Lotus LCD ( I've never heard before!)
i suppose that is from 1979-80 (design and style) but i don't sure about this...any opinion?Does anyone know this brand?
Only the strap is made in Hong Kong...nothing else
Works fine...light ok...only one problem: the alarm works but the volume is very very low!!!I can hear it only if I support ear on the case... (my god my english )

Because the strap was made in Hong Kong, does not mean that it is made with the same sub-par materials used in today's manufacturing.

That watch is very pretty, and I like it.

Very nice vintage piece. I think someone else will tell you more about the company.

Instead of "support" - put or place Instead of "on", "against" might be better.
But "on" was really fine. See, you will learn English and about watches here. Others will teach you German, Polish, Dutch.....

you're right retroled.....my english is very macheronic (see maccheroni italian food)....
I use the google dictionary....

nice watch simone, try to clean the backplate with the soundplate or have a look that the small spring or plate touches the backplate hard enough for good contact.

Maybe that will make the sound of the alarm louder.
