I like watches with a story, and this Lorus watch was the first thing my future wife (Now wife) bought with her first pay cheque.

The screen is purple and it lit up in a vibrant purple colour. She tells me the screen faded and that she was told by a jeweller that it wasn’t repairable.

I had the idea of surprising her by getting a new module put in. First I need to find one, or find out what module it has.

I don’t want to pull it to bits, but am I right in thinking it will be a generic movement and that the purple comes from a coloured screen in the watch?

I’ve fallen at the first fence. I can’t find anything out about the watch. The serial number doesn’t come up.

The watch dates from around the year 2000.

Any thoughts or advice appreciated.

Thanks. I’ll Google it. I’m trying to fix it as a surprise.
