Lotus Automatics: the step into mechanical watchmaking

An automatic watch changes something important: it no longer runs simply because a battery gives it power. The movement of your wrist sets the mechanism in motion. That means the watch has a life of its own, that you can feel how it works inside and that the experience of wearing it is different from that of a conventional quartz watch.

Lotus Automatics bring that experience to easy-to-wear watches, with designs that don't force you to jump straight into classic watchmaking. They're the gateway to mechanical movements for those who have been wanting to take the step for a while and haven't decided yet.

A watch with a life of its own

The difference between an automatic and a quartz isn't just in how it works, but in how it feels. In an automatic, every movement of the wrist feeds the mechanism and the hands advance thanks to that energy. There's no battery, nothing to change: you just wear it. Over time, it becomes an object that's cared for and that responds to daily use.

The designs of Lotus Automatics are made so that step is simple. They're not watches with an excessively classic aesthetic nor pieces reserved for collectors: they're watches that are worn normally, that match with almost everything and that let you enjoy a mechanical movement without having to change your way of dressing.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between an automatic watch and a quartz one?

A quartz watch runs on a battery, and when it runs out, it's replaced. An automatic watch obtains its energy from the movement of your wrist: when you wear it, it winds itself. It doesn't need a battery or electrical maintenance, but its mechanism is more complex and therefore requires periodic servicing every few years, like any mechanical watch.

Does it stop if I don't wear it for several days?

Yes. Automatic watches have a limited power reserve, usually between 38 and 42 hours. If you don't wear it for longer, it stops. It's not a problem: when you put it back on, the movement of your wrist will set it going again. If you want it to stay on time, you can wind it manually depending on the model.

Is it a watch to wear every day?

Yes. In fact, that's when it works best: the more you wear it, the more consistent its winding is. The designs of Lotus Automatics are made for everyday use, without reserving them for specific occasions.
